Two-goal deficits become insurmountable for Lakers

BOWLING GREEN, Ohio - Lake Superior State overcame a two-goal deficit midway through Friday's Central Collegiate Hockey Association game at Bowling Green, but came up one goal short of repeating the feat during the third period.

Bowling Green improved to 1-1-1-1 this season against LSSU with the 4-3 victory. It was the fifth time in six games that the Lakers (6-11-8 overall, 3-8-6-1 CCHA) played in a game decided by one goal or less.

The Falcons (9-13-3 overall, 6-10-1-0 CCHA) built a 2-0 lead on goals by Tommy Dee at 1:29 of the first period and James Perkin at 12:02 of the second period. LSSU's momentum was slowed during that stretch when freshman Dan Barczuk was whistled for a five-minute major penalty and game misconduct at 16:41 of the opening period.

LSSU's Troy Schwab scored at 14:18 of the second period to cut the Falcons' lead in half. Simon Gysbers and Josh Sim had the assists.

Pat Aubry tied it, 2-2, with another Laker goal at 16:56. Tyson Hobbins had the only assist.

Bowling Green regained the two-goal lead in the third period when Brandon Svendsen scored a power-play goal at 7:35 and Kyle Page added an even-strength goal at 11:10. Dan Sexton assisted on both BGSU goals.

Rick Schofield scored LSSU's final goal two minutes later. Steven Kaunisto had the only assist on the power-play marker.

Both teams were 1-for-4 on the power play. BGSU goaltender Jimmy Spratt picked up the win as LSSU out-shot the Falcons, 34-20. Brian Mahoney-Wilson was in net for the Lakers.

The teams play the final game of their four-game regular-season series at 7:08 p.m. Saturday at the BGSU Ice Arena. The game Saturday is the third of five appearances for the Falcons on the CCHA/Comcast Saturday Game of the Week. The game will air live on the NHL Network in Canada and on Comcast Television. The game will air on a tape delayed basis Sunday at noon on the NHL Network in the United States.
