1/18 Recap: Gerbe dishes; Eno gets a grip

Friday Night Action: Nathan Gerbe had two assists in #11 BC's 5-4 win over #15 Lowell. Andrew Orpik put up zeros for the Eagles. Nick Eno made 35 saves in Bowling Green's 4-1 win over WMU. The foil was on in this one, as a line brawl broke out in the final seconds right after the Falcons scored an empty netter. WMU was frustrated by a slash earlier in the period, and their frustration had an outlet once a one-goal game became a three-goal lead for BGSU. Paul Byron scored his 18th goal of the season and added two assists in Gatineau's 7-2 win over Chicoutimi. Drew MacKenzie (+1) had an assist in Waterloo's 4-1 win over Sioux Falls. Chris Butler was a disappointing -3 as #4 Denver fell to an emerging Air Force club, 5-2. The Falcons made great use of their 16 SOG. Drew Schiestel was also -3 in Niagara's 5-1 loss to Sarnia. Future Sabre Steven Stamkos had two assists for the Sting. Corey Tropp and Tim Kennedy were both even with no points as #7 Michigan State beat Ohio State, 4-1. J.S. Allard was +1 while T.J. Brennan missed a shootout attempt as St. John's lost to Cape Breton, 3-2. Matt Generous was even in the Saints' 3-1 loss to Cornell. Philip Gogulla was -2 as Cologne lost to Iserlohn, 4-3. Ben Breault was -1 in Baie-Comeau's 7-2 loss to Lewiston.
