Freshman goalie Will Yanakeff stopped 34 of 36 shots that came his way, and Laker goalie Kevin Kapalka made 31 saves.

The Lakers (6-11-5, 4-8-4-3) scored a shorthanded goal at 15:11 of the first period and scored another goal at 11:26 of the second period, but neither team could score for the rest of regulation and overtime.
