Colts Drop Game Three
April 16, 2025 - Ontario Hockey League (OHL)
Barrie Colts News Release
The Colts travelled to Kingston for game three of the second-round matchup with Barrie holding a 2-0 series lead.
The Frontenacs would open the scoring 90 seconds into the opening frame, making it three straight games of scoring the first tally of the match. The Colts would rally back in large part to a heads-up play by Beau Akey making a play from the blue line to spot overager Owen Van Steensel for his fourth of the playoffs. Van Steensel wouldn't be done scoring; he would clean up at the net to get his second of the period to give the Colts their first lead of the night.
Kingston would grab an early power-play in the middle frame and capitalize on it 2:10 into the period to tie at two. The period would go forward with some penalties between the two clubs but remain even after forty minutes.
Kingston controlled the play in the third, striking two times to give themselves a 4-2 lead. With Ben Hrebik pulled, Carter Lowe found the back of the net to pull the lead within one. With the Colts net empty once again, Kingston put away the game to make it a 5-3 final. With the loss, the series will shift back to Barrie on Saturday night.
