PETERBOROUGH, ON - The Peterborough Petes continued their early season domination over their arch-rival Oshawa Generals with a 6-4 home ice victory. It was the Petes' third straight win over Oshawa in the young Ontario Hockey League season. Of the Generals six loses, three have come at the hands of the mighty maroon and white in the "115 Series".
Petes' sophomore forward Ryan Spooner led the attack with four points, including one goal and three assists. Equally important was his plus four rating on the evening. Jamie Doornbosch and Matt Puempel each added two goals and newcomer Jamie Wise potted an empty net goal for his first Ontario Hockey League tally.
Petes' overage defenceman Christopher Breen, playing in front of the home crowd for the first time, put in a solid effort. Of particular note was his sliding out into the slot to block a late game scoring chance for the Generals with the Petes hanging on to a 5-4 lead.
Once again goaltender Jason Missiaen was outstanding in out dueling Oshawa counterpart Kevin Bailie.
All in all, all of the Petes played well and contributed to this important victory which moves Peterborough into a first place tie in the Eastern Division with the Generals and Kingston Frontenacs.
Next action for the Petes comes tomorrow night when they visit the Mississauga St. Michael's Majors at the Hershey Centre.
