Men's Hockey sweeps T-Wolves with OT win

Box Score For the second straight evening, the No. 7 Lancer men's hockey team came from behind in the third period to defeat the Lakehead Thunderwolves in dramatic fashion. Windsor edged the host Thunderwolves 7-6 in overtime in front of a crowd of 2610 at Fort William Gardens Saturday night.
 
Lakehead got on the board first on a power play goal by Jake Wright just 6:44 into the game, but Windsor's Drew Palmer and Isak Quakenbush scored two goals just 36 seconds apart to give the Lancers a 2-1 lead near the midway point of the first period.
 
Mike Hammond replied for the Thunderwolves less than a minute later by beating Windsor goalie Parker Van Buskirk to even the score, but a Matt Beaudoin blast at 13:44 eluded Wolves' netminder Justin McDonald to give Windsor a 3-2 lead heading into the second.
 
Lakehead's Jake Wright notched his second power play goal of the game at 7:48 of the middle frame to knot the score at 3-3, but Dylan Denomme put the Lancers up 4-3 at the 18:06 mark.
 
Then with only 17 seconds left in the period, Lakehead's Kelin Ainsworth fired a one-timer just underneath the crossbar to deadlock the score at 4-4 heading into the third period.
 
The Wolves built on that momentum when Keith Grondin beat Van Buskirk with a wrist shot high on the blocker side 1:19 into the third, and then Nathan Bruyere scored just over two minutes later to give Lakehead a 6-4 lead.
 
A few Thunderwolves penalties proved beneficial for the Lancers, as Palmer drew the Lancers to within one goal at 7:24, and then Ryan Green tied the game up with only 1:18 left on the clock, with both Windsor goals coming when Lakehead was a man short.
 
At 3:52 of the overtime period, Windsor's Spencer Pommels netted the winner for the second night in row to give the Lancers the victory.
 
Shots on goal in the wide-open affair were 40-37 in Windsor's favor.
