The Lancer Men's hockey team earned two points in a 2-0 victory over Lakehead Thunderwolves Friday night in Windsor.
With the win the Lancers move to 7-2-2 on the season and end a four-game losing streak, while the Thunderwolves continue to look for their first win of the season as they move to an 0-10-1 record.
The game got off to a quick start with both teams trading chances early. But both
Blake Richard and Lakehead's Devin Green shut the door through the first period.
The second period was much of the same, with Richard and Green both standing tall in net. Many chances were traded back and forth but it was a goalies game. At 17:21 of the period,
Dylan Seguin finally broke the dead lock on a pretty play set up by
Mike Christou and
Blake Blondeel.
The Lancers extended their lead at 4:28 of the third period to make the game 2-0.
Dylan Denomme scored on the power play after being set up by Seguin and
Steve Anthony.
Richard made 28 saves to earn the shutout for the Blue & Gold, while Green also registered 28 saves in the loss.
