Lakehead knew that they needed to go into North Bay and pick up 2 points and they did just that.
A returning Joe Mack opened up the scoring on the powerplay with a long shot from the point that went wide of the net but bounced off the back boards and hit the backside of Lakers netminder Zach Roy and went in, to the surprise of everyone one the ice.
Nipissinmg would answer back just over midway through the first period after winning the faceoff in their own end and rushing up ice getting a shot on net with the rebound being cleared back to the right point and Lakers Kyle Foreman stepping into his shot and blasted it past Carson Cherepak.
Lakehead would strike in the second on the powerplay off of a beautiful passing play with Nicolas De Grazia taking a pass from Malte Hasselgren and snapping it past Zach Roy to break the tie.
That would be it for the scoring and the goalies would shine from there. Zach Roy would stop the next 13 Lakehead shots and Carson Cherepak would show how stellar his play can be stopping all 17 Laker shots he would face after letting in the lone goal they got past him.
