Five goals in the third period broke a six-game skid for the Green Bay Gamblers as they beat the Chicago Steel in a Sunday matinee 8-5.

The two teams matched each other in each of the first two periods, scoring twice in the first and once in the second to enter the third tied at 3-3. David Rozsíval's penalty shot tally opened the flood gates less than 90 seconds into the third period, starting a stretch of four unanswered goals in the first nine minutes. The Steel got two of the goals back, but an empty-netter by Zach Wooten ended any threat of a comeback. The game also got chippy in the third period with 63 penalty minutes passed out, which including five game misconducts.

Gavin Katz registered a hat trick before his game misconduct while Elliott Gulley (1G, 3A), Zach Wooten (2G, 0A), Ethan Sturgis (0G, 2A), and Cruz Martin (1G, 1A) also had multi-point games.

The Gamblers will play out the rest of the month on the road when they travel to Nebraska to face the Tri-City Storm on Friday and Saturday.
