CHL on Sportsnet: Sudbury at Oshawa
The 2019-20 CHL on Sportsnet schedule continues Sunday as the Sudbury Wolves face off with the Oshawa Generals.
Entering Sunday, the Wolves will be looking to halt a three-game losing skid that has seen the club pick up a lone point coming in last weekend’s 11-10 overtime loss to the Hamilton Bulldogs in which five Sudbury skaters came away with three-point efforts despite the loss.
For the Generals, the club will also be looking to turn the tide following Friday’s 4-2 defeat to the Erie Otters that saw forwards Brett Neumann and Oliver Suni provide the offense for Oshawa.
Sunday’s contest marks the third of four meetups between the Wolves and Generals this season. The two sides have split the season series in coming away with one regulation win each, including the most recent game held Nov. 15 in which the Wolves recorded a 4-1 victory thanks to a two-goal effort from 2020 NHL Draft hopeful Quinton Byfield.
Catch all the action in the latest matchup between the Wolves and Generals on Sunday at 2:00 PM ET/11:00 AM PT on Sportsnet and on the NHL Network in the United States.
