With upcoming weekend games versus the London
Knights and the Brampton Battalion, the Wolves need a strong
performance against the Spitfires and will be counting on newly
acquired winger Justin Allen to carry some of the load.
Allen was acquired from the Owen Sound Attack
on Dec. 13 in exchange for a conditional tenth round draft pick
in 2006. Since Allen is an overaged player, the Wolves were
forced to ship overaged winger Alex Eaton to the Barrie
Colts.
Allen had a goal and five points and 64
penalty minutes in 30 games this season with the Oshawa
Generals and the Owen Sound Attack and brings obvious size and
muscle to the lineup.
The Spitfires (10-18-2-2), are also losers of
three straight, are coming into the game as one of the
league's weakest defensive teams with 143 goals against
this season, second only to the Oshawa's 167 goals
against.
