The Sudbury Wolves hosted the Mississauga Steelheads Sunday afternoon for a matinee match-up at the Sudbury Arena.

The Wolves had a stronger start to the second period and outshot the Steelheads 21-18, but were unable to get on the board. Mississauga defenceman, BRANDON DEVLIN, added a power-play goal from the point to close out the second frame.
Wolves' rookie, BRADY PATAKI added his second goal of the season to put the Wolves on the board with just over 5 minutes left in the game. Defencemen JONATHAN DUCHESNE and JONATHON MASTERS drew assists on the play. That was as close as the Wolves came, Mississauga went on to take this one by a final score of 5-1. Shots on goal were tied at 29 shots apiece.
