Sarnia at Soo Preview (Mar. 9/19)

The Sarnia continue to fight for a playoff spot in the bottom of the Western Conference as they look to beat the rival Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds tonight.

The Sting won their last game 6-5, which was on March 3rd against Niagara. They currently sit in seventh place in the Western Conference. They are 26-30-5-2, and only have five games left. They are three points ahead of eighth-place Windsor, and five points behind sixth-place Owen Sound. Erie is in ninth place and only five points behind Sarnia, so they are not out of the playoff race just yet.

The Greyhounds have a 40-16-6-1 record, which puts them in third place in the Western Conference. They are only four points behind Saginaw, so there is a bit of a competition there for second place and the West Division title.
