It’s likely the toughest part of the Ontario Hockey League season.

With no chance of changing their playoff position, the Soo Greyhounds and London Knights met at the Essar Centre, with the Greyhounds skating to a 7-5 victory in a game that saw numerous veterans out of the lineup for both clubs.

The Greyhounds opened up a 5-2 lead through two periods and held off a late charge by the Knights in the game.

“It was another difficult game, as I would expect tomorrow will be,” said Greyhounds coach Sheldon Keefe. “Both teams are ready for playoff hockey to start. These are tough games to get through mentally. Our guys were pretty good and pretty efficient with the puck. We had zero commitment defensively today. Without the puck, we weren’t very interested in our defensive structure.”
