A pair of lengthy scoring droughts ended for the Moose as both Jack Roslovic and Dan DeSalvo scored for Manitoba. Roslovic, who leads the team in points, went 15 games without a goal. DeSalvo, who leads the team in goals, ended a streak of 13 games without a goal with his 13th tally of the season.

“The monkey is off my back for sure.” DeSalvo said. “Hopefully can keep things rolling. I was off the score sheet for awhile so it definitely feels good.”
