Last Friday, despite a four-goal effort by
Sudbury forward Benoit Pouliot, the Colts beat the Wolves 6-4
at the Sudbury Arena. The Wolves are 27-25-1-4 and need a win
to maintain their tenuous hold on seventh position in the
Eastern Conference. The eighth place Ottawa 67's are only
two points behind the Wolves.
Sudbury has lost two straight games and has
yet to win in Barrie this season, falling 9-3 on Spet. 39, 2005
and 3-1 on Nov. 26.
Game time tonight is 7:30 pm, catch all the
action live with Stew Kernan on AM 790 CIGM.
