Wayne State scored in almost every conceivable setting, including five-on-four and four-on-three power plays and a shorthander, and got two goals apiece from Jackson Wilson and Brent Renfrew to parlay an early 4-0 lead into its first win of the season, a 7-4 victory over Canisius Friday night at the Fraser Ice Arena.<\/p>\n
The Warriors got first-period goals from Wilson, Jack Redwood and Dustin Kingston — with Kingston’s coming on a Canisius power play — before Wilson’s second of the evening, at 2:29 of the second period, stretched the Wayne State advantage to four.<\/p>\n
Todd Bisson then put the Ice Griffs on the scoreboard, tipping a shot by Joe D’Urzo past Warrior goalie David Guerrera to cut the deficit to 4-1. Bisson finished the evening with three points to lead Canisius.<\/p>\n
Defensive miscues came back to haunt the Canisius, however, as WSU capitalized for two more goals in the second, by Renfrew, and a four-on-three tally from Tyler Kindle to apparently put the game away at 6-1.<\/p>\n
The Ice Griffs, however, scored the next three goals — power-play markers by Corey Lucas and Daryl Pierce and a five-on-five goal from Marc Bouffard — to make it 6-4 before Renfrew ended the scoring with an empty-netter in the final minute.<\/p>\n
Underscoring the Warriors’ special-teams dominance, Canisius finished 2-for-13 on the power play in the wake of 14 WSU penalties.<\/p>\n
Guerrera finished with 17 saves for Wayne State; Canisius’ Stephen Fabiilli registered 21 saves in the loss.<\/p>\n
The two teams meet again Saturday night at Fraser with faceoff at 7:05 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
