BOWLING GREEN — The hometown kid delivered for the No. 1 team in the country on Friday.
The Brendan Furry show brought 140-plus friends and family clad in Minnesota State purple into Bowling Green State University’s Slater Family Ice Arena, and the St. Francis de Sales graduate gave the crowd what it wanted in the second period.
With about 8:40 on the clock, Furry took a feed near the left circle from Julian Napravnik, weaved through the BGSU defense, and flicked the puck past Falcons netminder Christian Stoever for a two-goal lead, which sent the “visiting” crowd into a frenzy for a moment he surely will never forget.
