Spits weather Attack and close out Owen Sound

No surprise that Windsor took care of Owen Sound in Round 1 of the OHL playoffs. With their first series win in 4 years, and first for the new ownership, the Spits now get almost a week to rest while their next opponent gets beat up.

If things shake out the way they're supposed to Windsor's next opponent will come out of the Plymouth-Sarnia series. Both pose interesting scenarios.
Mike Vellucci has The Whalers player tough hockey pulling the team out of the basement and into the playoffs.

Sarnia would be a fan favourite based on paybacks. The Sting knocked Windsor out of the first round last spring and don't think the Spits have forgotten. I think this would be the most intriguing opponent. I'd love to see how the Spits handle proverbial pain in the arce Matt Martin. He wreaked-havoc on them last spring and always causes a stir when these two teams play.
