Home vs Windsor Spitfires (0-2-0-0, 0 pts)

For ticket information, please visit www.saginawspirit.com or call 1-989-497-7747

The Windsor Spitfires are starting off the season losing record after dropping games to both the Erie Otters and to the Guelph Storm. Windsor is still a force to contend with, due in part to returning veterans Mike Weber (BUF 06) and Scott Todd (NAS 05). Anthony Guadagnolo will be in the Windsor net again this season.
