No luck for the Frontenacs in loss to the Steelheads

Kingston have dropped their last three.

Friday the 13th proved to be very unlucky for the Kingston Frontenacs.

Despite being outshot 40 to 21, the visiting Brampton Steelheads came into Slush Puppie Place and delivered their own horror story handing the hometown team a 4-1 loss.

Frontenacs Head coach Troy Mann didn't think the number of shots his team made matched the number of quality chances they had in the game.

Three of the four Steelheads' goals came from odd-man rushes.

Troy Patton tipped in a pass from Nathan Amidovski for a 1-0 first period lead. Stepan Kurychenkov made it 2-0 for Brampton on a three-on-one play.

Andre Mondoux was on the ice for all four Steelheads goals, he and Adam Goljer were a combined minus-7.

Mann says the defense has seen better days.

Down 4-0, Landon Wright got the Frontenacs (13-8-0-0) on the board with his 8th goal of the season late in the third period.

The third-year forward from Brockville says a loss where you outchance the opposition leaves a terrible taste in your mouth.

Oskari Ahmajarvi stopped 39 shots in the victory while Tyler Cooper and Metej Stankoven rounded out the scoring for the Steelheads (5-13-1-1).

Matthew Minchak made 16 saves for the Frontenacs in his first game back from injury.

Kingston will travel to Oshawa on Grey Cup Sunday where they will try and snap a three-game losing streak against the Generals.

You can listen to the game on Upper Canada Fuel and Burner Frontenacs Hockey on New Country 98.9 at 2 pm.
