The Ryan’s are still out of action - McGregor in Sarnia and O’Connell in Penticton - and everyone else playedlike themselves.

The biggest standout was Prince Albert Raiders goalie Ian Scott having a great weekend as the Raiders went on the road through Alberta. A couple great games and one loss, but it’s hard to win three in three days.

Kingston Frontenacs - 22-16-4-3

Jan. 18th: @ Peterborough Petes

L 3-2 OT - No Points
Jan. 21st: @ Mississauga Steelheads
L 6-2 - 0G, 0A, -1

The high flying Frontenacs were grounded with their trip to the golden horseshoe. Räsänen is still chipping in, but his offensive game has taken a back seat with the recent additions.

#55 - Keaton Middleton (D) - 0G, 1A, -4
Saginaw Spirit - 23-17-4-0

Jan. 18th: @ Barrie Colts

W 4-2 - 0G, 0A, -1
Jan. 21st: @ North Bay Battalion
L 4-3 OT - No Points

Not a great week for Middleton or the Spirit on their Highway 400 road trip.

#15 - Fedor Gordeev (D) - 1G, 1A
Flint Firebirds - 13-27-3-1

Jan. 17th: vs Sarnia Sting

W 4-2 - 1G, 1A, +3

Jan. 21st: @ Windsor Spitfires
L 1-0 - 0G, 0A, -1

The week opened with a big loss to the Sting and a close one to the Spitfires, but in the surprising win over the dominant Greyhounds Gordeev had a goal and an assist!

#19 - Ryan McGregor (F) - Injured
Sarnia Sting - 32-12-2-0

Jan. 17th: @ Flint Firebirds
W 6-3 - Did Not Play
Jan. 19th: vs Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds
W 5-3 - Did Not Play
Jan. 21st: @ Oshawa Generals
W 6-5 - Did Not Play

McGregor is still out week-to-week with an injury.

#52 - Nicolas Mattinen (D) - 0G, 0A, +4
Hamilton Bulldogs - 29-10-3-3

Jan. 19th: @ Kingston Frontenacs
W 3-2 OT - No Points
Jan. 20th: @ Ottawa 67’s
W 9-3 - 0G, 0A, +3

A great ending to the Bulldogs weekend, tripling the 67’s score. Hamilton still has a nine point lead for first in the Eastern Conference, so the loss to Owen Sound doesn’t hurt much.
