Box Score The Brock Badgers men's hockey team (9-10-2) dropped a 6-4 decision to the Guelph Gryphons (6-11-3) Friday night in Guelph.
Brock's start was exactly what
Murray Nystrom was looking for after Thursday's 8-4 loss at Ryerson.
The Badgers were up 2-0 1:10 into the game, but the Gryphons tied things at two after one and the game was tied 3-3 heading into the third.
Guelph would outscore Brock 3-1 in the final stanza, including an empty-net goal.
Despite the loss, Nystrom was happy with his teams overall performance.
"I thought we played well enough, in most areas, tonight to win the game" said the Badgers head coach. "It was a good rebound game for us. Obviously we didn't get the result we wanted, but I thought the line of (Jordan) Gignac, (Dylan) MacEachern and (Taylor) Fielding were outstanding and (Andrew) Radjenovic and (Sammy) Banga generated countless opportunities to score."
Gignac and Fielding paced Brock with a goal and assist apiece, while
Gregory Jambrosich and
Dan MacEachern had the other Badger tallies.
Adrian Volpe suffered the loss in goal making 26 saves on 31 shots as Brock was outshot 37-31 overall.
Andrew D'Agostini registered the win for the Gryphons, while Mackenzie Nichol had three assists.
Brock now welcomes Western Wednesday night. Game time at the Seymour-Hannah Centre is 7:15 p.m.
