Sarnia, ON -
The Sarnia Sting have dropped three of their last
four games including Thursday nights match up at
home to the Kitchener Rangers which saw Sarnia lose
3-2.
Despite
heavily outshooting the Rangers 40-19, Kitchener
managed to score three goals on Brandon Maxwell.
Cody Sol
opened the scoring with a powerplay goal near the
end of the period to put Kitchener up in front 1-0.
The
special teams would hurt Sarnia, only this time when
they had the advantage, as in the second period
while on the powerplay, Tobias Rieder would score
shorthanded for the Rangers to make it a 2-0 game.
Nail
Yakupov, who was recently named the #1 overall
selection by Central Scouting would get his 14th of
the year on the powerplay to cut the lead down to
one, but with under two minutes remaining, Matia
Marcantuoni would put the Rangers back in front by
two goals.
Sarnia
would again cut the lead in the third, as Nathan
Chiarlitti would put in his third of the season, but
despite an empty net, and man advantage near the end
of the game, Sarnia would not find the tying goal
and the Rangers would go onto the 3-2 victory.
Also named
to the central scouting list was Alex Galchenyuk who
was named #2 for the OHL despite not playing a game
this season due to injury.
Sarnia
will next take on the Saginaw Spirit in and a home
and away series, starting Friday in Sarnia before
heading to Saginaw on Saturday.
