Spits Edge Frontenacs 4-3

The Windsor Spitfires made a third-period comeback to earn a 4-3 victory over the Kingston Frontenacs on Friday.

After a scoreless second period, the Spits surged in the third with Jake Smith scoring a quick goal 28 seconds into the frame. Daniel D'Amico and Cody Morgan both scored early in the period to give Windsor the victory with a one-goal lead.

Spitfires goaltender Lucas Patton made 29 saves out of 32 shots on net.

The Spitfires will travel to Ottawa on Sunday to battle the 67's at 2pm.
