Gaels win second straight over Windsor; retain division lead
Posted: November 23rd, 2013 @ 11:45pm
Three unanswered goals in the second period boosted the Queen's Golden Gaels to a 4-1 win over the Windsor Lancers in an Ontario University Athletics hockey game Saturday night at the Memorial Centre.
The win was the second in a row for the Gaels over the No. 7-ranked team in Canada.
Jordan Soquilla, Taylor Clements, Patrick McGillis and Braeden Corbeth scored for East division-leading Queen's, which improved to 8-0-5. Spencer Pomillis scored a power-play goal for Windsor, briefly tying the game 1-1 midway through the first period.
Gaels goaltender Kevin Bailie made 33 saves as the home team was outshot 34-33, including 15-9 in the first period. Queen's held a 12-8 advantage in a scoreless third.
Now just one of two teams in Canada without a regulation-time loss, Queen's retains its two-point lead in the division over McGill, a 4-1 winner Saturday over Waterloo.
At the Constantine Arena, meanwhile, the Royal Military College Paladins scored as many goals as they'd scored in their previous four games combined but it wasn't enough to avoid a 5-4 overtime defeat from the Guelph Gryphons.
Nonetheless, the overtime loss granted RMC its first point of the year. The Paladins, 0-13-1, remain the only winless team in Canada.
The Paladins scored the only two goals of the first period and they led 3-2 going into the third, but Guelph scored twice two and a half minutes apart to take a one-goal lead midway through the final period.
A goal by Colin Cook, his second of the year, with just under four minutes to play tied the game for RMC but the Gryphons got a goal from James Merrett after 3:11 of overtime to secure the win.
It was Merrett's fifth goal of the year and his second overtime game-winner.
Alex Pym, Brendan Wright and John Livingston scored the other RMC goals. Robert DeFulvis scored twice for the Gryphons.
Guelph outshot RMC 55-33 - 5-3 in overtime - as Paladins goalkeeper Paul Dorsey made 45 saves in the losing effort.
The Gaels resume play Friday, at home against the Laurentian Voyageurs. RMC also plays its next game Friday, at Waterloo.
