NANAIMO — The Clippers lost just their second game in regulation time this season with a 4-1 home ice setback versus Salmon Arm.

The Silverbacks opened the scoring on a deflection goal by Jaden Johnson in the first period before Elliot Perreault tied the score for Nanaimo in the middle frame.

A Salmon Arm goal by Anthony Cardilli with two seconds left in the second was a critical goal that put the Silverbacks up to stay.

Tanner Walos and Keifer Miller added tallies in the final 20 minutes to secure a Salmon Arm win.

Walos scored on the man advantage on one of three third period Silverbacks power plays.
