A Thriller in Kingston, Frontenacs Hold on for 2-1 Win Over the Generals
November 8, 2024 - Ontario Hockey League (OHL)
Kingston Frontenacs News Release
After an incredibly tight back and forth game with a few chances from both teams, the breakthrough finally came on a Kingston powerplay opportunity in the third period. With Jacob Battaglia camped out at the side of the Generals net, Emil Pieniniemi fired a shot towards goal that took a couple bounces on the way through and was hammered home by Battaglia in the blue paint to give the Frontenacs a 1-0 lead.

11:28 Colby Barlow (5) - Calum Ritchie, Zackary Sandhu
With a full two periods without a goal, of course the floodgates would open after Jacob Battaglia opened the scoring on the evening. Colby Barlow would respond for his Oshawa Generals in just under five minutes after Calum Ritchie took a shot from the point that was deflected in by Barlow in front of Frontenacs netminder, Nolan Lalonde. The goal was briefly reviewed for a potential high stick, but the goal stood and just like that we had ourselves a tied contest once again.

15:10 Maleek McGowan (2) - Vann Williamson
After a big time defensive lapse by the Generals, Maleek McGowan made them pay. After the Generals' puck clearing attempt was stopped right at the blueline by Vann Williamson, Maleek McGowan was allowed to walk a good ten feet from the blueline into the slot and he fired a wrist shot right under the glove of Jacob Oster to give the Frontenacs a late lead, and the goal would stand as the game winning tally.
