With their playoff picture a little clearer, the Soo Greyhounds have one regular season game remaining following a Friday night win over the Flint Firebirds
As the last weekend of regular season play in the Ontario Hockey League kicked off on Friday night, the Soo Greyhounds built up a 3-0 lead through 20 minutes in what was eventually a 4-2 victory at the GFL Memorial Gardens over the Flint Firebirds.
Dean added that the game was “super emotional” at the beginning following a presentation recognizing four 19-year-old players on the Greyhounds roster – Bryce McConnell-Barker, Kiril Kudryavtsev, Arttu Karki, and Gavin Hayes.Firebirds coach Paul Flache credited the Greyhounds for their start in the game.
“We started over-passing a bit in the second,” Dean said. “Not as much chance generation as we’d like. Flint obviously came out a little harder, a little more motivated after a tough first period. At the same time, to limit them to just seven shots over forty, I still liked our second with the exception of a couple missed assignments on the goal against.”“We managed the puck a little bit better,” Flache said.
The home team took a 2-0 lead when Justin Cloutier jumped on a loose puck after Jordan D’Intino lost the handle on it in the slot. Cloutier proceeded to beat Brown glove side at 12:34. With 2:08 to go in regulation time and Brown on the bench for an extra attacker, Oliver Peer beat Schenkel on a back-door pass from Nolan Dann to make it a 3-2 game late in the third.
