Peterborough Petes sit in tie for 1st place in OHL’s Eastern Conference

The Peterborough Petes are red hot.  They have picked up a point in seven straight games (6-0-0-1) and are winners of four straight games.

It has been all about balance for the Petes during this early season run.  Sixteen of 20 players who dressed notched at least a point each in a 6-3 win over the Sudbury Wolves on Saturday.

“It’s early, but I like the direction our team is going,” said Jody Hull, head coach.

The recent string of wins saw the team win a home-and-home series with the Kingston Frontenacs before the win over Sudbury.

“It’s what we were talking about before the season started — how deep of a team we will have,” said Logan DeNoble, the Petes captain.

The Petes are on a western road trip this week.

They visit the defending Memorial Cup champion Windsor Spitfires on Thursday, followed by games in Flint on Saturday and Saginaw on Sunday.
