The game started evenly as the Mustangs opened the scoring with Kevin Richardson in the third minute of play. But the Lancers responded quickly a moment later with a power play goal just six seconds into the penalty, by Jon Ryan, assisted by captain Chad Snihur and Jon Romic. Romic won the face off directly back to Snihur who set up Ryan for the one-timer that blasted directly past Western’s goalie, Brad Topping. >>  | | Campus Kiss

In so doing, the Laurier Golden Hawks pinched many of their players forward, opening up a lot of space in the backfield – space that Mike Collavino took advantage of late in the second half. >>
