Kevin Hayes cut it to 4-2 at 2:42 of the third period on a one-timer from the right circle during a 5-on-3 power play and Jones pulled for the extra skater.
"We're down 4-1 at that point," Yeo said of his decision to pull Jones for the extra skater. "If you score, you have a much greater opportunity to win the hockey game. Along with that, you get into a 5-on-3, it should be extremely difficult for them to shoot toward our net."
Danault made it 5-2 off a feed from Moore on a 2-on-1 at 11:17.
Ivan Provorov scored on a one-timer from the point with 3:59 left to make it 5-3, but Arvidsson shot into an empty net with 1:44 remaining for the 6-3 final.
"We got a good start to the game, got a goal right away, and that got us going as a team as well," Danault said. "It was ticking tonight, and we want to keep it going."
