Following its win at Pitt and the clean sweep against Oswego, Ohio currently holds a three-game win streak that they don’t intend to break. Ohio is sitting at 15-6-4 this season, and — keeping in mind its future competitor — its increase in the rankings may only continue. This weekend, Ohio will take on Toledo.
Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming games:
Series Information:
Opponent: Toledo (6-12-1)
Date and Time: Friday, Jan. 19, and Saturday, Jan. 20, at 7 p.m.
Location: Bird Ice Arena
History:
Ohio and Toledo have not gone head-to-head yet this season. However, last season, the Bobcats took home both wins from their two-game series. The Bobcats won the two games by a combined score of 14-2.
Statistical Leaders:
Total points: Riley Nadeau (24)
Goals: Anthony Oviedo (13)
Assists: Nadeau (14)
Penalty minutes: Trevor Stokes 80
Player to Watch:
Trevor Stokes, totaling 80 minutes of penalty time this season, is a player to look out for. Ohio’s leaders in penalty minutes are Spencer Schons and Luc Reeve, each totaling 52 this season so far and trailing almost 30 minutes behind Stokes. If the Bobcats intend to take the wins this series, they’ll have to keep a clear focus on skating as opposed to being sidetracked by wasting penalty minutes on an aggressive player.
