The Dukes winning streak is now at six as they edged the Muskies in Lindsay tonight by a score of 4 to 3 on the strength of three goals from forward Adam Ritchie.   The Lively, Ontario native has been hit with the injury bug most of the season but broke out in a big way by also scoring the game winning goal.

Josh Gervais had the other Dukes goal while Kyllian Kirkwood and Jan Kaminsky each had a pair of assists with other helpers going to Craig Campbell, Darcy Murphy and Simon Bessette.  In goal, Jared Lockhurst picked up his fourth win in as many starts facing 35 shots.

The win was the Dukes 29th of the season and assures them of home ice advantage in the first round of their playoffs.  This will mark the 13th consecutive year the Dukes have opened the playoffs at home.

Wellington will now prepare for their next game on Friday night when they host the South Division North York Rangers for their lone visit to the Essroc Centre this season starting at 7:30 PM.
