The Sting has fallen below .500 for the first time this season as a result of 7-4 setback to the Spirit in Saginaw.
Jonas Gulbrandsen’s first OHL goal with less than seven minutes remaining pulled the Sting even at 4 on Oct. 17. before the Spirit scored three times, including twice in an empty net, in the final minute for the victory.
Easton Walos, Jack Van Volsen and Mathew Manza also scored for Sarnia.
Logan Hawery had three assists while Cole Emerton added a pair of helpers.
Sarnia is now 5-6-1 preparing for a home-and-home series with London. The Sting hosts the first of two games
on Wednesday (Oct. 21) before the teams reconvene in London Friday.
Watford’s Evan Van Gorp scored and ex-Sting Ryan Brown had four assists as London bounced the Otters, 7-1 in
Erie on Saturday. Brown was named captain of the Knights this week with Van Gorp as an alternate captain along
with Cohen Bidgood.
Walos and Manza scored for the Sting in a 9-2 loss to the Spirit at Progressive Auto Sales Arena on Friday while Jaxon Cover and Marcus Nordmark both had a goal and two assists in London’s 4-1 win over Sudbury last Friday.
