KINGSTON FRONTENACS GAMEDAY REPORT<br />

<strong>2018</strong> PLAYOFFS SECOND ROUND REMATCH<br />

FRONTS BATTLE COLTS FOR FIRST TIME SINCE <strong>2018</strong> PLAYOFFS SERIES<br />

Less than six months ago the Barrie Colts and<br />

<strong>Kingston</strong> <strong>Frontenacs</strong> battled for a spot in the<br />

Eastern Conference Final. Barrie jumped out to<br />

a 2-0 series lead before <strong>Kingston</strong> stormed back<br />

with 4 straight wins to to claim the spot in the<br />

next round. Coming into the game this afternoon,<br />

both teams look a lot different on paper<br />

than they did in that series, but the players that<br />

are still here are ready to go for round two.<br />

Two players that played a huge role in that<br />

series for <strong>Kingston</strong> were Ryan Cranford and Tyler<br />

Burnie. They were tasked with shutting down<br />

the top line of the Colts which included names<br />

like Luchuk and Svechnikov. Both players are<br />

back this season, but will be looking to add a<br />

little more offense to the <strong>Kingston</strong> lineup rather<br />

than resuming their shut down role.<br />

The Colts return to <strong>Kingston</strong> missing their entire<br />

top line from that playoff series with all three<br />

players graduating to professional leagues. Even<br />

with those players gone, the Colts can still score<br />

goals. Ryan Suzuki has had a brilliant start to his<br />

second year in the OHL. He entered play this<br />

weekend with 11 points in just 4 games. Lucas<br />

Chiodo has also stepped it up on the scoresheet<br />

recording 8 points in his first 4 games.<br />

<strong>Kingston</strong> will get to face Barrie in the loca-<br />

tion they want them. Including the playoff series<br />

from last year, the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> have won 6 in a<br />

row at the Leon’s Centre over the Colts. <strong>October</strong><br />

7th hasn’t been <strong>Kingston</strong>’s favorite day to play<br />

on. In 17 games played on this date, the franchise<br />

is 6-10-1 all-time, but they have won 4 of<br />

the last 5 at home. KF<br />
