Peterborough Express: This is it!

Entering the final week of OHL play, the Peterborough Petes find themselves two points behind both Kingston and Mississauga.  Peterborough needed to win out this past week, and they did, beating Kingston 4-1 on Thursday, and Ottawa today 7-2.  Their last three games are at home on Tuesday against Mississauga, and they will hit the road against Kingston on Friday and Brampton on Sunday.  Meanwhile, Kingston has games against Belleville, Barrie, Peterborough, and Ottawa and Mississauga has games against Peterborough, Belleville, and Ottawa.  Peterborough has a great chance to sneak into the playoffs with Brampton being the only team to have clinched a spot left on their schedule.  However, both Kingston and Mississauga have a game against Ottawa, so Peterborough needs to win out here to have a shot and hope either Kingston or Mississauga falters.  Currently, it looks like Mississauga is the one faltering, as they have lost eight in a row, with two of those losses being in the shootout.
