The Peterborough Petes are gearing up for challenging home-and-home series against the Oshawa Generals.
The Petes will look for their third win in a row when they host the Gens tonight before heading to Oshawa on Friday where they’ll look to set the franchise record for most road wins to start a season, a record that was initially set by the 1992-93 OHL Champion Petes team.
In talking about their arch rivals, Head Coach Rob Wilson acknowledged the Generals’ strength as a hockey team, praising their roster and their solid defensive core, highlighting the tough competition the Petes are expected to face in these next two games.
Wilson emphasized the importance of minimizing mistakes on the ice while expressing his desire for the team to stay out of the penalty box, acknowledging the challenge of striking the right balance between playing with aggression and maintaining self-discipline.
Aside from being disciplined, Wilson says his team just needs to continue playing the way they are and come out mentally prepared when they hit the ice.
