Graham Littlejohn, Ryker Kesler and Will Burgess, each picked up two assists.
Both Vipers goals, from Tristan Kitchen and Jonah McIndoo, came on the power play.
Littlejohn leads the Stars with 13 points, on three goals and 10 assists. Tyran Lawson has a team high seven goals and three assists, for 10 points. Edmundson has six goals and two assists and Burgess, three goals and five assists.
Pierson Clute and Darcy Dewachter, both have a goal and six assists, to lead the Stars defence.
The Stars remain in first place contention, sitting third with a 9-2-0 record, for 18 points, two behind Chatham and four back of conference leaders St. Marys. The Stars do have one game in hand on both teams.
