(PLYMOUTH) The Whalers used two-goal efforts from Rickard Rackell and Jamie Devane to beat the Windsor Spitfires, 5-1, on Saturday night at the Compuware Arena.

Kerby Rychel scored his 30th goal of the season to spoil Scott Wedgewood's (34 saves) shutout bid late in the third period.

The game was contentious from the outset, featuring six fights and eight game misconducts.

Jaroslav Pavelka replaced starter John Cullen at 11:50 of the third period. Cullen was involved in an altertaction with Plymouth's Garret Meurs and both players were given misconducts - Cullen's a game and Meurs his second 10-minute misconduct of the night.

The Spits went just 1-FOR-8 on the power play.

We're right back at it Sunday afternoon at 2PM, as the Mississauga St Michael's Majors come calling.
