KINGSTON, Ont. – Devin Green stopped 22 shots Saturday night to pick up his first OUA shutout of the season and lead the Lakehead Thunderwolves to a 1-0 lead over the RMC Paladins.

Dylan Butler scored the lone goal of the contest, an unassisted tally 79 seconds into the final frame, his third of the season.

The win ups LU’s record to 6-4-1 and vaulted them into fourth place in the OUA West.

Lakehead returns home next weekend to host the Guelph Gryphons (5-6-0).

Correction: The OUA's website initially indicated Riley Corbin was in net for the Thunderwolves, but has since amended that mistake.
