With London already punching their ticket to the OHL Championship series, the Oshawa Generals were looking to join them for the second straight season. As for the Colts, they were looking to repeat the Kitchener Rangers second round series against Windsor and begin their climb towards a reverse sweep.

It took all of 15 seconds for the Barrie Colts to get on the board. Or so they thought. The puck would enter the net behind Jacob Oster however, the play would get called back as the Colts were offside entering the zone so the game would remain scoreless.

The Rangers would not go away as Luke Ellinas would even up the contest just a few minutes later coming down the left wing and beating Austin Elliott, who was riding a 22-game unbeaten streak in the net.

London would get their lead back as Winnipeg Jets prospect Jacob Julien would get his third goal in the last two games on the man advantage, stepping up in the absence of captain Denver Barkey who went down late in the opening contest.

The Oshawa Generals took care of business on the road with a 7–1 win over the Barrie Colts on Sunday evening at Sadlon Arena.

After back-to-back victories, Oshawa now leads the Eastern Conference Championship Series 2–0, with the series shifting to Tribute Communities Centre for Game 3 on Tuesday night.

It didn’t take long for the Generals to strike, as Beckett Sennecke opened the scoring just 24 seconds into the contest, burying the game’s first shot. The Anaheim Ducks prospect also delivered a tone-setting hit on the same shift.
