Penalty Kill Specialists
The Kingston Frontenacs penalty kill units shutdown Oshawa’s attack on Friday night. The Gens went 0 for 4 on the powerplay and Kingston’s defence deserves credit for how hard they played while short handed. The Frontenacs will look to continue this success today to give themselves the best chance to win.
Powerplay Surging
Through two games this season, the Kingston Frontenacs are operating at a 27.27% scoring rate on the powerplay. The Black and Goal have found the back of the net on the man advantage in both of their games so far this season.
