Nanaimo was 0/6 on the man advantage while Alberni went 1/7.

The Clippers were playing without forwards Brody Waters, who served the first game of a three game suspension, and Keighan Gerrie who suffered an undisclosed injury Nov. 5 against Penticton.

Before the game the Clippers made a trade with the Merritt Centennials shipping out forward Luke Lavery in exchange for Walker Erickson.

Erickson is expected to make his debut Nov. 10 when Nanaimo visits Cowichan Valley.
