Alaska-Anchorage at #15 MSU IN GAME

The Mavericks had control for most of the first period but it was the Seawolves that struck first on a nice feed from behind the net. MSU responded on the power play when Jason Wiley finished off a pretty passing play when Ben Youds kept the puck in the zone. Mick Berge then picked up the puck at the blue line, fed it to Mouillierat down low and he hit Wiley back-door for the tap in.

1st Period Scoring Summary
4:22 -Lunden (Vidmar, Clark) 1-0 UAA

8:44 – Wiley (Mouillierat, Berge) PPG
1-1

The Mavericks looked a bit sloppy in the early going, but managed to get some nice chances and wasted no time capitalizing on them. Joel Hanson had a goal waved off, but responded by burying one that was a no-doubter off a nice feed from Bruess. The Mavericks then got a nice deflection from Bruess off a wrist shot to give them their second power-play goal of the night. MSU looks calm and in control.


2nd Period Scoring Summary

15:01 - Hanson (Bruess, Youds) 2-1 MSU

18:50 - Bruess (Davis, Sackrison) PPG
3-1 MSU

No scoring in the third, but MSU comes away with a 3-1 victory even if it wasn't pretty. It's 2 points nonetheless, and with Wisconsin tieing Michigan Tech, the Mavericks are currently tied for fourth place in the WCHA standings
