Ottawa, ON - The Rangers took care of business Sunday afternoon defeating the Ottawa 67's by a score of 5-1. Ottawa countered Kitchener's opening goal 30 seconds after the East Avenue Blues got on the board, but that was the closest they would get. Luca Romano reached the 20-goal mark for the first time in his young OHL career. Christian Humphreys extended his active point streak to five games with a third period assist, and Jackson Parsons earned his 31st victory of the season.
Jack LaBrash opened the games scoring banking home a point shot off the stick of Carson Campbell. 30 seconds after that, Nic Whitehead levelled the score. The stalemate didn't last long as 12 seconds later, Luca Romano scored his 20th goal of the season to cap off three goals in a 42 second span. Cameron Reid scored the lone goal of the second period to give Kitchener a two-goal lead after 40 minutes. Adrian Misaljevic and Jack Pridham added insurance goals in the third period to cap off a 5-1 Rangers win.
