Spits fall in shootout, West Division race continues this weekend

The Knights play at Flint Saturday at 7 p.m. and if they fail to record a point, could still finish fourth if the Greyhounds don’t win against Windsor Sunday.

The Windsor Spitfires couldn’t lock up the West Division on Friday night.

The Spits fell 3-2 to the London Knights in a shootout after Liam Greentree rallied late to force overtime.

The loss means Windsor still needs help to clinch the division.

Flint plays Saturday night and if the Firebirds don’t win in regulation or overtime, the Spits take the title.

If Flint does win, Windsor will need at least one point Sunday in Sault Ste. Marie.

Puck-drop against the Greyhounds is set for 2:07 p.m. Sunday, with the pre-game show with Steve Bell underway at 1:52 p.m. on AM800.
