It took Fargo just 11 seconds to regain the one goal lead as captain Tyler Rollwagen snuck an odd angle shot between the short-side post and Kucenski's blocker, to pull ahead 2-1 with 9:58 remaining in the second period. In this case, it took nearly 10 minutes into the second period for Omaha to knot the game at one goal a side. Alex Bump got a puck past Fargo goaltender, Anton Castro on a shot through traffic off a feed from Andrew Centrella, picking up the first power-play goal of the evening. Trailing after the first 20 minutes is something the Lancers are used to, which usually sets them up for a successful second period of play. Griebel ripped a shot through traffic, which tipped off the stick of Fargo point leader, Cole Knuble, sneaking the puck past the glove hand of Omaha goaltender, Mason Kucenski to take the 1-0 lead which they carried into the first intermission.

Mason Langenbrunner picked up possession of the puck on the near side boards and fed it to his defensive partner, Trevor Griebel. Resulting in scoring chances for both teams and a 9-8 shot count in favor of the Lancers.ĭespite it being well-played by both squads, the Force was able to strike first, 14:33 into the period. The first period of play was one of the most evenly matched of the season. The Force were looking to improve their special teams as a whole and come out hard in attempt to snap their 5-game losing streak, which dates back to October 22nd when they started their first series with Omaha at Ralston Arena.

Not just to cap off their second sweep over the Fargo Force in three weeks, but to stay competitive with the teams at the top of the western conference standings. Coming into the second game of the weekend, the Lancers were hungry for a win.
