Donovan knotted the score for Milwaukee just over half-way through the second on his third tally of the season. Grant Mismash started the play by digging the puck out from the far boards and sending the puck across the ice to Donovan, who walked in from the top of the right circle to the dot and fired a wrister past Hogs goalie Malcom Subban.
However, Isaak Phillips gave the IceHogs a lead they would not relinquish with just 1:28 to play in the opening stanza when he followed his own shot from the right circle, corralled the rebound and tucked it in the left post past an outstretched Ingram.
