CHL Playoff Notebook: April 13, 2019
Two OHL clubs are riding three-game win streaks as they look to storm back in the second round:
Ontario Hockey League
The Oshawa Generals pieced together their third-straight victory to gain a series edge through five games versus the Niagara IceDogs following a 3-1 victory in which netminder Kyle Keyser came up big with a 36-save performance.
It’s all even through six as the Guelph Storm have recovered from an early 3-0 series deficit against the London Knights, with their latest victory coming in a 5-3 final Saturday in which deadline acquisition Nick Suzuki led the way with one goal and two assists.

The Spokane Chiefs punched their ticket to the third round following a tidy 2-1 win in Game 5 versus the Everett Silvertips as a 34-save night by Bailey Brkin proved to be the difference.
