What are the expectations this weekend? Probably the toughest road trip of the year considering the teams they're playing and the fact that these teams have had a weekend and week of practices to gel after the trade deadline/WJC.
Windsor on Thursday -> 9-1 in their last 10 -> 2nd overall in the OHL
Sarnia on Friday -> 7-3 in their last 10 --> 14th overall in the OHL
London on Sunday -> 8-0-1-0 in their last 10 -> 1st overall in the OHL
Can't take any of these teams lightly considering they're all playing good hockey in their last 10. Staying out of the box will be key as London and Windsor are 1/4 on the PP. Sarnia is last. Sudbury is good on the PP as well, but Windsor and London are top 4 in penalty killing%. Sudbury slipped to 7th.
Can go all day talking about the other teams but Sudbury will need to play their best hockey of the season. Thankfully they get Saturday off before taking on London on Sunday.
Are we expecting any injured players to return?
