Jordan Heywood opened Clan’s account after 25min 15sec and Mikael Lidhammar made it 2-1 19 seconds later.
Colton Kroeker slotted Dundee’s second with less than five minutes left but they could not find a leveller.
Meanwhile, Paul Crowder netted a glory treble against his former club as Fife Flyers returned to form with a 5-1 victory over Cardiff Devils.
Crowder opened the home side’s account after only 58sec and Kyle Just made it 2-0 on the power play after seven minutes.
Joey Haddad pulled one back for the visitors on the power play after 14 minutes but Fife responded three minutes later when James Livingston scored.
A power play stroke from Crowder after 38 minutes was followed by a third from the same player 11 minutes later to complete the scoring.
