The North Stars have maintained top spot in the AIHL thanks to back-to-back wins in Melbourne.
Taking on defending champions – the Mustangs – on Saturday, goaltender Dayne Davis proved invaluable, making several crucial saves.
At the other end, a hat-trick to Luke Moffatt and a goal to Mat Lindsay sealed the 4-3 win.
Newcastle then beat the Melbourne Ice 4-2 last night.
The two sides will face off again at Warners Bay on Saturday.
