Lux Interior's final game would be this one, with the hope of finishing as high as the third seed; the Biohazards would have one more game after this, and would also have third seed aspirations. The proper result for Lux would clinch them that third seed, while the same for the Biohazards when paired with the needed result in their final game, would do the same. The Biohazards would draw first blood when Sean "Babyface" Feeney would deke through the Lux Interior defense, but the Lux Crew would level it with Christian "The Hoff" Hoffman from Mike "Cruel" Carulli and Chris "Scoots" Parliman. Now 1-1, that would be how the first period would end, with the shots a commanding 16-5 in favor of the Biohazards. The second period would feature a quick Biohazards' goal: Matt Grunenthal low from Adam Cummings. But the Lux Boys would equalize when former New York Yankee Shayne Spencer would finish on a wild dash down the ice, carving up the Biohazards in the neutral zone, and in their defensive zone, before deking and calmly depositing his team's second goal into the back of the net. Now 2-2, the Biohazards would respond with a pair of late period goals when, with a minute remaining Victoria Rompilla would convert on a drop pass from Babyface, which would be followed by a trip to The Hoff, for a Biohazards' power play. Immediately, the Biohazards would cash in on this power play, when, with three seconds remaining in the period, would double their advantage to 4-2 with Cummings from John Lattanzio. The shot totals would now further be in the Biohazards' favor, 35-11. In the third period, the Biohazards would suck the life out of the game, forcing Lux to shoot from long ranges. Nick Raite would not yield to these Lux attempts, and rack up ten saves this period, a period while the Biohazards would not score, would outshoot Lux Interior 14-10, with that 4-2 scoreline holding for the win. The Stateside Tap + Tavern Man of the Match Award was won by Brad Cummings and Sean "Babyface" Feeney (each 1G, 1A), and Nick Raite (19/21 saves, 2GA).
