Hounds home for three
Soo Greyhounds, with the third-most points in the Ontario Hockey League, will be in the comfort of home for three games this week, beginning tonight.
The Hounds will play host to the bottom three teams in the Western Conference with the ninth-seeded Saginaw Spirit in town tonight followed by the last-place Guelph Storm on Friday and the eighth-place Flint Firebirds rounding out the triple play on Saturday.
Guelph heads to the Essar Centre with two Sault Ste. Marie products on the Storm roster — veteran forward Nic Sicoly and rookie defenseman Nolan Makkonen.
Sicoly has 2 goals, 8 assists, 10 points in 47 games for the Storm thus far this season.
Makkonen, who joined the Storm from the Soo Eagles of the Northern Ontario Jr. Hockey League about a month ago, has 1 goal, 2 assists, 3 points in a Guelph uniform.
