Carter Vicente made 44 saves and Calder Anderson scored twice as the Burlington Cougars beat the Milton Menace 5-2 at Central Arena on Friday, bouncing back from a tough loss in Collingwood the previous weekend.

Nolan Keeler opened the scoring with 5:21 left in the first period, his fifth of the season, set up by Max Morin and Zaiden Hriache. Ty Daniels doubled the lead with an unassisted shorthanded goal at 7:28 of the second, his 13th of the season.

Sean Short made it 4-1 on the power play with 26 seconds left in the second period, his ninth of the season, from Ethan Tatomir and Mickael Tissier. Anderson's second of the night came at 2:34 of the third, from Morin and Hayden Bondy, for a 5-1 lead.

Vicente stopped 18 shots in the third period on the way to his eighth win of the season.

The Cougars stay on home ice for two games this week, hosting the Pickering Panthers on Tuesday and the Toronto Warriors on Friday.
