#Gens come from behind several times and score 5 even strength goals in regulation to win the #OHL pre-season opener 6-5 in a shootout over Saginaw. All 6 games came from #OHL rookies (Roberts, Feeley, Lobo, Byrd-Leitner, Posthumus and Kalto in the shootout)

Isaac Gravelle went 5/5 in the shootout for the win. He was 3-1 in the shootout (stopped 7/11) last year in his rookie season in the #OHL

Everyone always says, "nothing matters more than the standings on August 29th at 5pm" so let's check. 1st: Oshawa: 2 pts 2nd: Saginaw: 1 pt 3rd-20th: everyone else: 0 pts Wow.

It’s always interesting to see how #OHL teams handle the pre-season. The #Gens always seem to sit their big guys and give the young players experience. Kitchener always seems to be putting out their best lineup and trying to embarrass teams in the pre-season

On the other side, Brantford is sitting out Vanacker, O’Brien, Protz, McCue, Moore and Leenders tonight

Brantford is sitting all of their top guys and Parker Holmes is still on the 4th line. I genuinely don't think he'll stay in the lineup. Maybe because the #Blackhawks took him in the 4th round it'll force Brantford to play him, but otherwise he's a healthy scratch for them lol

Everyone knew this last year except the London Knights lol

What's the point of this lol. In the pre-season...
