Generals surrender first regulation loss to 67’s in final meeting of regular season
Oshawa, ON — The Oshawa Generals made their last trip to Ottawa this season and lost 3-2.
In the first period, Ottawa’s Ryan White scored his first career OHL goal to open the scoring 10:31 into the frame. Generals’ Luke Torrance tied the game off a shot from the point by Zachary Sandhu that bounced out front, and Torrance batted home the rebound.
The goal marked his 22nd of the season, a career high for the overage forward. The period ended 1-1 with the shots 14-11 in favour of the 67’s.
Filip Ekberg scored 26 seconds into the second period to regain the lead for Ottawa. After killing off a major penalty, Oshawa eventually tied the game with a superb passing play. Lauri Sinivuori and Ben Danford assisted on Noah Powell’s eighth goal of the season.
Ottawa once again took the lead 9:15 into the third period on a powerplay goal from Luca Pinelli. This time, the Generals did not have an answer and would fall to the 67’s 3-2 in regulation.
