The Salmon Arm Silverbacks were hanging on for their lives in game five of the conference semifinal on the evening of April 22, down 3-1 in the best-of-seven series.

Christophe Farmer was the series-winning hero for the Warriors, potting a pair of second period goals to tie the game at three after a 3-1 Salmon Arm lead.

He closed out the hat trick with an empty-netter in the third, alongside a John Evans empty-netter, to seal a 6-3 victory.
