Game Two would take place at the much smaller Portland Ice Arena in the US State of Oregon and just 300 miles over the border between the North American nations. There, it was Vancouver who came out with all guns blazing, scoring twice in the first period to overturn the deficit from Game One, and lead the tie overall. With no scoring in the middle stanza, and several Powerplay chances missed, we moved into the final period, where Bobby Rowe scored for Portland with just under seven minutes to play, and this one would need Overtime to sort out who would lift the Patterson Cup. That honour would go to Vancouver, who got a winner with 6:21 played in OT through winger Barney Stanley with his first goal of the Playoffs.
