The Sting are starting to pick things up after a slow start to the season, going 7-3 in their last 10 games.

The game gets underway at 7:30 p.m. as part of Pink the Rink night. Limited edition Pink the Rink Storm shirts are available during the game, with all proceeds going to the Canadian Cancer Society Waterloo-Wellington.

There will be a special pre-game ceremony and fans are encouraged to wear pink clothing in support of cancer research and awareness.

Guelph will then make a trip down Hwy. 6 to meet the Hamilton Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon.

Bulldogs forwards Arthur Kaliyev and Jan Jenik are tied for first in OHL scoring with 46 points each. Kaliyev also leads the league in goals with 25.
