NANAIMO — The Clippers got behind and spent most of Game 3 against the Cowichan Valley Capitals battling up hill.
A seeing eye shot from Moritz Kukuk and a stray pass pounced on by Luca Primerano gave the Capitals a 2-0 lead after the opening period.
An outside wrist shot off the stick of Camden Bajzer upped the Cowichan advantage to 3-0 through 40 minutes.
After a penalty kill to start the third period Carson Lesiuk jumped on a loose puck to vault Nanaimo back into the game.
