The Manitoba Junior Hockey League final is all square following the first two meetings between the Dauphin Kings and the Steinbach Pistons.
Following a 5-1 loss to the host Pistons Friday, the Kings returned the favour Saturday with a 5-1 win of their own at the T.G. Smith Centre.
The best-of-seven series resumes Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. at Credit Union Place in Dauphin.

After holding a 2-1 advantage for most of the second period, Nick Braun’s power play goal at the 5:51 mark of the final frame gave the Kings a bit of a cushion, which they would extend with two late markers.
Defenceman Klim Georgiev led the way for the visitors with a goal and an assist each, with Cordell Coleman, Logan Calder and Jayden Harris also scoring.
Carson Cherepak stopped 27 shots for his ninth win of the playoffs.
Braden Birnie had the lone goal of the night for the Pistons, while Simon Harkness made 24 saves.
