Peterborough Express: Playoff Hopes Take a Hit
This past week was a chance for the Peterborough Petes to make up some ground on the Kingston Frontenacs and the Mississauga Steelheads for one of the final two playoff spots. Unfortunately, things did not exactly go as planned, as the Petes won only one game of the four and remain four points behind Kingston for the last playoff spot. The Petes lost to Owen Sound on Monday 3-2, beat Oshawa 6-3 on Thursday, and lost to Belleville 5-2 Saturday and lost to Oshawa 4-1 on Sunday. Games this week include a home game against Ottawa on Thursday and road games at Sudbury on Friday and at Sault Ste. Marie on Sunday. With only eight games remaining, the Petes had better take care of their own business if they want to sneak into the playoffs, but with a slow start hampering them, it may be too little too late. Don't count the Petes out, though, as anything can happen, and the Petes are still only six points behind Mississauga for the seventh spot.
