The home side took an early lead in the sixth minute as Jordan Kawaguchi tapped home the rebound from Robert Carpenter’s saved effort, after Jarrett Fiske had denied the first attempt but was unable to stop the Giants forward from sliding home the rebound.
Belfast hen put the Stars under heavy pressure for a few minutes as they looked to double their lead but the Taysiders managed to fend off further Giants attacks before settling back down.
Dundee then found an equaliser on 15 minutes as defenseman, Kyle Pouncy saw his first shot blocked but the puck then bounced back to the Canadian and he buried his second effort into the roof of Jackson Whistle’s net.
The two teams were still tied at 1-1 to start the second period and the home team would take the lead again, this time Mike Lee fired home the rebound from David Goodwin’s low shot off the leg pads of Fiske, inside 29 minutes.
Then just two minutes later, the Giants then increased their lead to 3-1 as Ben Lake’s attempted pass out from behind the Dundee goal took a deflection off of Stars captain, Drydn Dow’s stick before bouncing off the back of Fiske and into the net.
