Players to Watch:
Guelph Storm – Cameron Supryka
After just recently being acquired from the Storm, Supryka will likely have a big role in the defence this season. In his OA season with the Sting, he’s been able to put up 1 goal and 4 points in 12 games. Supryka also had an A on his jersey in Sarnia this season and will bring that leadership to this team.
Owen Sound Attack – William Portokalis
Portokalis just being acquired mid-week by the Attack means tonight will likely be his first game with his new team. With the Steelheads this season he’s been able to total 3 assists for 3 points in 12 games. Portokalis will add some offensive depth to this Attack team and be a player to watch in his Attack debut.
