The Chill (26-24-4), battling to earn an ECHL playoff berth, put the game on ice in the final period on goals by Lakovic and Steve Strunk.
Pete Speranza, Dean Dorchak and Scott Burfoot scored for the Rampage. Dorchak's goal was his team-leading 35th, while Burfoot, back in the lineup after missing two weeks to injury, netted his 28th of the season.
