ETIQUETTE HOCKEY
While we score goals on the ice, our goal off the ice is to make sure all of #GensNation has the best game experience possible! We’ve made a list of some important reminders for all fans to keep in mind so that everyone’s night out is a special one.
1. WAIT FOR THE WHISTLE TO ENTER AND EXIT SEATING AREA
A lot can happen in a split second of hockey action – and we don’t want anyone to miss anything. Fans who move from their seat during play can block the view of an entire section of fans. Please wait until a whistle blows to make any move to and from your seats.
QUICK TIP - There will always be extended stoppages following the first whistle after the 14:00 & 6:00 minute marks of a period (unless there is an icing, goal, or the start of a power play – just listen for the buzzer!)
2. BE MINDFUL OF THOSE AROUND YOU
Trust us, we know the games will have you at the edge of your seat, but if you lean too far forward, you’ll block the view of those around you. There isn’t a bad seat in the building, so sit back and enjoy the game!
3. KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PUCK
Things move quickly at our games, including flying sticks and pucks. Keep your eye on the puck at all times to avoid any potential injuries!
4. NON-SMOKING FACILITY
The Tribute Communities Centre is a non-smoking, no re-entry facility. Smoking of any kind, including e-cigarettes, on TCC property, is prohibited.
5. HOCKEY IS FOR EVERYONE
We don’t expect everyone to be best friends with the Petes’ fans – some things just don’t mix. But, we do think it’s pretty cool they’re coming to our building to enjoy the same great game we love. Please be aware of those sitting around you, including children and let the play on the ice do the talking. Abusive and inappropriate language will NOT be tolerated.
6. HAVE FUN
Get loud, cheer, and let your favourite team on the ice know you’re behind them – Afterall, hockey is the best sport out there.

AROUND THE OHL
EASTERN CONFERENCE
KINGSTON FRONTENACS
Kingston has been on a roll in November. So far, they have been 6-1 all month, with their only loss being a 4-2 defeat to the 67s on November 6th. So far, Jacob Battaglia has been their main guy on offence. He has 14 goals and 28 points this season, good for sixth in the league in terms of points, tied with Kevin He and Adrian Misaljevic. Battaglia isn’t the only one producing, as Kingston has four other players who have hit the 20-point plateau, with Tuomas Uronen sitting only two points behind Battaglia’s 28. Kingston also has three players sitting with double digits in terms of goals.
NORTH BAY BATTALION
CENTRAL DIVISION
Although the Battalion currently have no players above the 20-point plateau, they are very close. Ethan Procyszyn is currently sitting at 12 goals and 6 assists for 18 points, one ahead of Jacob LeBlanc who has 17 points. Although Charlie Larocque has played the most games for the Battalion, Mike McIvor has been stellar for them this year, posting a 2.90 goals against average, and a .920 save percentage, good for 10th overall in the OHL. North Bay has a three-game homestand against Windsor, Sudbury, and Guelph before spending the rest of the month on the road against Peterborough, Kingston, and Sault Ste. Marie.

In 15 games, he has recorded 11 goals and 14 assists for 25 total points this season, six more than the next-best points scorer, William Nicholl, who has 19. They also just signed Ottawa Senators prospect Blake Montgomery to an OHL Scholarship & Development Agreement, where he recorded 43 points in 58 games. Aleksei Medvedev has been a solid starter for the Knights. In 10 games this season, he has a 2.78 goals-against-average and a 0.915 save percentage.

OCTOBER RECAP GENERALS
WRITTEN BY: TOMAS MORGAN
The Oshawa Generals had a busy opening month to the season. Starting the season with missing pieces, acquiring new ones, hot and cold streaks, and many milestones featured an action-packed October.
The Generals got off to a good start, winning their first game of the season against the Kingston Frontenacs. Following their win, they dropped their next two games. Oshawa would then get some help from the reinstatement of Ben Danford from the Toronto Maple Leafs training camp.
Upon Danford’s return, the Generals named their leadership group for the season, with Danford leading the charge as Captain. Calum Ritchie, Luke Torrance, Matthew Buckley, and Luca Marrelli were all named alternate captains.
Oshawa continued to bolster their lineup by acquiring Owen Sound Attack’s 40-goal scorer, Colby Barlow. With the addition of Barlow and Danford back to the squad, things were looking up for the Generals. But they needed help finding their game with so many moving pieces.
Debuting on September 29th, the Gens wore their first featured warm-up jerseys of the year. The October warm-up jersey was an ode to the Indigenous Community and National Truth and Reconciliation Day.
Looking back to October 4th, the team lost both games that weekend on home ice despite the return of Beckett Sennecke from Anaheim Ducks training camp on October 6th. That weekend, rookies Brady Smith and Lauri Sinivuori secured their first OHL career goals.
The following weekend, Tyler O’Toole scored his first career OHL goal, and goaltender Isaac Gravelle notched his first OHL win against the Sarnia Sting. That got the Generals back in the win column after losing four in a row.
They would lose two more before getting the season back on track with back-to-back wins over their rivals, Peterborough Petes. The second of the two wins was their first on home ice this season.
The Generals followed up the performance with a dominant 5-3 win over the 2024 Memorial Cup Champions Saginaw Spirit. Colby Barlow got the monkey off his back and scored his first in a General’s uniform.
Oshawa finished the month winning two of the last three in dominant fashion and getting Calum Ritchie back from the Colorado Avalanche after he played seven regular season games in the NHL. Ritchie had two assists in the 7-2 win over Kingston. That game also saw rookie forward Brooks Rogowski pot his first OHL goal.
In their last game of October, they followed up their seven-goal performance with another seven goals at home on Steve Dangle Night against the Peterborough Petes. Sennecke recorded a hat trick and Barlow scored two goals in the 7-5 win.
The Generals sit second in the Eastern Conference with a 7-6-1 record to end October.
Luca Marrelli is tied for 9th in the OHL in points with 17. He leads the Generals, followed by Beckett Sennecke and Luke Torrance with 14.
Oshawa kicks November off with a game on the 1st against the Sarnia Sting for their annual Country Night as they look only to move up with what they have started thus far.

PREVIEW GAME DAY
WRITTEN BY: CARTER SMITH
The Oshawa Generals return home for Nickelodeon Day as they look to bounce back against the Kingston Frontenacs. Oshawa sits in second place in the East Division, only trailing the Frontenacs for the top spot. The Gens are coming off a tough loss to the Barrie Colts in what was a back-and-forth event that saw multiple lead changes.
The Frontenacs come to town riding a four-game winning streak sitting in first place in the Eastern Conference. After an up-and-down start to the season, Kingston has seemed to figure it out going 8-2-0-0 in their last 10 games.
In the last meeting between these two, it was the Oshawa Generals falling 2-1 to the Kingston Frontenacs in Kingston.
After the first two periods were scoreless the Frontenacs opened the scoring but the Gens would respond as Colby Barlow found the back of the net.
But with just under five minutes to go Kingston would strike again as Maleek McGowan was able to beat Jacob Oster to make it 2-1.
RECAP LAST GAME
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH
WRITTEN BY: MATTHEW MOUNTJOY
The Oshawa Generals took the ice at the Sadlon Arena for the first time this season. Barrie took the first game between the two teams on October 6th, 4-3 in regulation. The Generals are coming off a shootout win against the Ottawa 67’s, while the Barrie Colts are coming off a 5-2 loss against the Brampton Steelheads.
3:24 into the first period, David Svozil scored his first career OHL goal on a shot from the blue line to make it 1-0. Just over three minutes later, Riley Patterson scored his seventh of the year to tie the game at one. Luca Marrelli would take a high sticking penalty 11:03 into the first, but the Colts would not convert on the game’s first powerplay. The Gens would get their first powerplay of the game close to the end of the period after Kashawn Aitcheson got called for boarding.
The total shots to end the first period were 10-5 in favour of the Generals.
The second period saw a lot of offensive action, but many players faced on-ice discipline. Four penalties were issued in the second period, with the majority going to Barrie. Aitcheson started the scoring for the second period just under six minutes in to give the Colts their first lead of the game.
Colby Barlow would tie the game at two with a pass from Beckett Sennecke. Despite the review for an offside call, it would remain a goal. The game wouldn’t stay tied for long, as Carter Lowe would score his fifth of the year to give the Colts a 3-2 lead.
Brooks Rogowski would tip a centring pass from Lauri Sinivuori, tying the game at three. The total shots for the second period were 10-9 in favour of the Colts.
A turnover provided a breakaway chance for Colby Barlow, but Sam Hillebrandt stopped him, keeping the game tied at three. Carter Lowe and Luca Marrelli would score goals in close succession to make it a 4-4 game.
Cole Beaudoin deflected a shot from Beau Akey 10:22 into the third to give the Colts a one-goal lead. The Generals tried to tie the game but to no avail. Dalyn Wakely would get credit for an empty net goal at the end of the game to seal it. The Colts win 6-4 and are now 2-0 against the Gens this season.
LEADERSHIP
WRITTEN BY: CARTER SMITH
After last year’s Captain Stuart Rolofs graduated from the OHL, the spot was left vacant, and Ben Danford was named the 72nd captain of the Oshawa Generals. Beyond the naming of a new captain, there have been some other additions to the Gens leadership group, so let’s take a closer look at who will be donning the letter this season.
BEN DANFORD
Wearing the ‘C’ for the first time, Danford has been a rock at the back end for the Generals, doing the little things to help the team. Danford is in his third season with the Gens and was a first-round pick by the Toronto Maple Leafs.
CALUM RITCHIE
Returning late to the Generals this season after playing seven games with the Colorado Avalanche, Ritchie will again be wearing an ‘A’ on his jersey. Back for his fourth season in the OHL, Ritchie has shown that he is a force and will be a key cog for the Generals this season.
LUKE
TORRANCE
The over-ager from Oshawa has been a familiar face in the Gens locker room, not afraid to help the team out in any role that might be needed. Torrance has spent his entire OHL career with the Gens currently playing in his fourth season with the team.
LUCA MARRELLI
A mobile defenceman for the Generals Marrelli was drafted by the Columbus Blue Jackets in the third round of last year’s draft. Marrelli has gotten off to a hot start this year leading the team in both goals and points.
The last member of the 2024/25 leadership group is Matthew Buckley. The forward is in his fourth season as a General and has carried his strong play from last season into this year.

HOME AWAY FROM HOME
WRITTEN BY: CARTER SMITH
The Oshawa Generals have had players from near and far come and play for them over the team’s 87-year existence.

OSTER’S STEADY START
WRITTEN BY: TOMAS MORGAN
Jacob Oster has been a steady force in the Generals’ net this season after an incredible 2023-24 campaign in which he won OHL Goaltender of the Year. He played 60 games, posting a record of 35-16-7, with a .905 SV% and 2.82 GAA.
So far this season, he has matched the SV %, but his GAA overage has risen to 3.10. But that is nothing to worry about. Oster has looked comfortable in his net and has faced the third most shots in the OHL this season. Once the Generals clean up their defensive zone play, Oster’s numbers will move toward last season.
Fans should get used to Oster in the net, as he will start a hefty amount of games for the Generals this year. He has already played 11 of the first 14 games, and with Noah Bender being traded to Flint, Oster and Isaac Gravelle are left as the tandem for the Generals.
The netminder is in his final OHL season and is the backbone of a team with OHL cup aspirations after losing to the London Knights in the finals last season. He is the cousin of Florida Panther Matthew Tkachuk, who dealt with similar adversity in his NHL career.
Tkachuk reached the Stanley Cup finals in 2023 before being swept by the Vegas Golden Knights, similar to the Generals and Oster last season. The Panthers returned to the final the following season (2024), taking down the Edmonton Oilers in seven games. Perhaps Tkachuk shared some advice that could help Oster and the Generals in their quest for the J. Ross Robertson Cup.
“Matthew has mentioned before that the most important part of hockey is always having fun. Whatever you find most enjoyable about the game, continuously do it. You play your best, and you’re most effective when you are having fun, which is something he taught me at a young age,” says Oster.
Catch Oster in action the rest of the season at the Tribute Communities Centre as he spends his overage year with a Generals logo on his chest and a hunger to finish what he started.
