The Lancer men's hockey team lost a pair of road games over the weekend in Kingston. Windsor fell 4-2 to the Queen's Gaels Friday night and 4-3 to the RMC Paladins on Saturday in a shootout.
 
Heading into their final weekend of competition before the holiday break, the Lancers are 5-5-4 and in fifth place in the west division standings.
 
FRIDAY vs QUEEN'S
The first period saw lots of action on both ends as Queen's won the shot battle 13-10. They were able to capitalize for the game's first goal at 7:41 when Darcy Greenaway scored his seventh goal of the season. The Gaels would take the 1-0 lead into the second period.
 
The Lancers were able to bury a power play marker at 3:13 to tie the game 1-1. Later in the period, a dump in attempt from the Lancers would take a crazy bounce behind the Queen's net and land right on the stick of Eric Palazzolo, who made no mistake and gave Windsor a 2-1 lead. The Gaels pushed back hard and dominated play before tying the game at 10:40 on an Eric Margo goal to tie the game 2-2 heading into the third period.
 
Greenaway would score his second of the game with just over 13 minutes remaining, and Ben Fanjoy scored at 14:55 of the third to earn the win for Queen's.
 
SATURDAY vs RMC
After a scoreless first period, the red light was busy in the second as the teams traded five goals back and forth in the middle frame. Ian Parker and Ben Assad would score for the Lancers, but the Paladins would head into the third period up by one, 3-2.
 
In the final frame, Ryan Shaw beat Paladins goaltender Austin Hannaford to tie the game with thirteen minutes to go in the period. Neither team was able to find the back of the net in regulation, nor in the overtime period, so the game headed to a shootout, where the host Paladins scored on their second shooter to take the win.
