Coming Up: Port Dover Sailors at Dundas Blues
Tonight at Market Street Arena (7:30 p.m.) is a big test for the Sailors. Dundas leads the Bloomfield Division with 18 points in 11 games, with 49 goals for and only 29 against, the second-best goals-against mark in the division. Port Dover is fifth at 5-5-1 with 11 points, level with Glanbrook, who have played one game fewer. The Blues are the team everyone is chasing, and the Sailors are the ones trying to climb.
The Sailors’ challenge is the goals-against column, 58 in 11 games, tied for the most in the division, and their 36 goals for is among the lowest. So tonight is a test of whether they can tighten up against the best team in the group. A win would close a seven-point gap in one night, and it would tell everyone the Sailors aren’t done.
The Sailors do have scoring to lean on. Trevor Nunn has 16 points in just 8 games (8 goals, 8 assists), D. Courrier has 7 goals in 8 games, and T. McHutchion has 10 assists. Dundas runs through Kael Andrew, who has 17 points in 11 games (8 goals, 9 assists), with K. DeJussel adding 13. Get to the rink early, because this one has a lot riding on it for the Sailors.
