The York University Lions men's hockey team took on the Carleton Ravens on Friday in the first game of their two-game road series in Ottawa. The Lions won 3-2 in the shootout, boosting their regular season wins into double-digits.
 
The Ravens took the lead early in the first period, scoring twice. Their goals came from Evan de Haan (assisted by Jared Steege) and Travis Douglas (assisted by Dalen Hedges and Josh Burnside).
 
Josh LaFrance was able to break through and score the Lions' first goal on a power play in the last four minutes on the period. The period ended with the Ravens leading 2-1.
 
Neither team scored a goal in the second period, and most of the third played out in the same way until the very end. The Lions were able to tie things up courtesy of a goal by Justin Bean in the final minute of play. This was his first goal of the regular season, and he was assisted by Colton Vannucci.
 
In the shootout, Trevor Petersen and Derek Sheppard scored for the Lions. Only Brett Welychka was able to score for the Ravens, and the Lions were able to skate off with a 3-2 win.
 
The Lions now have a 10-4 season record. They will take on the Ottawa Gee-Gees Saturday, Nov. 25 before returning to Canlan Ice Sports on Friday, Dec. 1 at 7pm to take on the Laurier Golden Hawks.
