Lakehead hosts divison rival Guelph in last home games of the first half of the season.

Lakehead is coming off of a tough 3 game sweep of the Nipissing Lakers and Guelph is coming off of a 5-1 loss to TMU and a 6-3 loss to Brock.

Lakehead currently sits 3rd with 13pts in the OUA West while the Gryphons sit in a 3 way tie for 4th with 12pts.

All time the Wolves are 31-14-1 against the Gryphons and have out scored them 209-164 in those games.

The Wolves powerplay is currently at 27.5% good for 3rd in the league and Guelph's is 16.4% good for 16th in the league.

Penalty kill for the Wolves is 81.4% good for 8th in the league and Guelph is at 80.9% good for 10th.

The next Thunderwolves win will be Coach Andrew Wilkins 70th regular season win and 90th all time (Regular season, Non Conference and Playoffs combined).

On Saturday November 16th it is time for our annual Teddy Bear toss when the Wolves score their first goal of the game. So bring those stuffed animals and lets make the charities that they are donated to happy and most importantly the children that they will be going to happy.

Game time for both games is 7pm both nights. You can also view the game online at OUA.ca and click on OUA TV.
