Barrie goalie Hagan Bach stopped all 32 shots he faced, and the Colts beat the Saginaw Spirit 2-0 on Friday night at the Dow Event Center. Saginaw outshot Barrie 17-0 in the third period but could not get one past Bach, who earned his first OHL shutout and his first win of the season, according to WNEM.

How it happened

Michael Tang put Barrie ahead at 8:54 of the first period with an unassisted goal. Sebastian Mogull doubled the lead on the power play at 12:53 of the second, set up by Evan Passmore and Tang. The Spirit went 0-for-3 with the man advantage, and Barrie went 1-for-5.

Stepan Shurygin made 15 saves on 17 shots for Saginaw. Barrie managed only 17 shots in all and none in the third, as the Spirit spent most of the period in the Colts’ end. Saginaw’s Velliaris and Barrie’s McCormick fought at 11:04 of the second period, and Velliaris also received an instigator minor and a misconduct.

The shutout also ended Dima Zhilkin’s 14-game point streak, the longest active run in the OHL entering the night. Zhilkin, who went into the game tied for the league scoring lead with 25 points, was one of two Spirit players named this week to Team CHL for the CHL USA Prospects Challenge.

What’s next

The Spirit (6-6-2-1) stay home to host the Guelph Storm at 4 p.m. Saturday. Barrie improved to 3-10-2-0 and visits Flint on Saturday afternoon.
