This game is not very important standings-wise, as the Sting have clinched a playoff spot but are unable to move up or down in the standings, and Kingston clinched the first overall pick, and Flint has no chance to pass anyone in the standings. It would not be surprising if Sarnia were to sit some of their better players in order to allow them to rest for the playoffs.
