GAME FLOW
Kyle Hope scored two goals less than three minutes apart to stake the Lancers to an early lead.  He got his first just 4:59 into the game and his second came  two minutes later on a one-timer from the point the sailed past Wolves' goalie Devin Green, who stopped 35 of the 39 shots he faced in the game.
 
Lakehead freshman Tomas Soustal had a golden opportunity in the first when he broke in all alone, but Reinhart thwarted him with a brilliant pad save.
 
Windsor added two more in the second period.  Brennan Feasey scored at 11:02 to put the Lancers up by three, and then after a Wolves' giveaway in their own end of the rink, Ethan Skinner beat Green with a wrister from the high slot to put the Lancers up 4-0 after 40 minutes.
 
Lakehead dominated the play in the third period, but Reinhart stopped Daniel McKitrick cold on a great scoring chance and Daniel Del Paggio fired wide on a breakaway opportunity a few minutes later.
 
The Wolves kept the pressure on throughout the final stanza, but were unable to break the shutout.
