Barkey did not get on the scoresheet in this game, as both he and Easton Cowan (OHL playoff MVP) were held without a point. Barkey was a plus-one on the day as he was on the ice for Gazizov’s second goal (tallied on the opening shift of the final period).
In a losing cause for Drummondville, Flyers prospect Alexis Gendron had a game-high seven shots on goal. He also played a rather feisty game for a player known much more for his skill and finesse.
Trying to set a competitive tone for his team, Gendron mixed it up with London’s Sam O’Reilly on the game’s second shift. Both players were dispatched for unsportsmanlike conduct penalties. No scoring resulted during the ensuing four-on-four.
The next day, Saginaw overcame deficits of 2-0 and 3-2 to defeat the Voltigeurs in regulation by a 4-3 score. Gendron had three shots on goal.
On Monday, London Knights held off the Western Hockey League champion Moose Jaw Warriors by a 5-4 score on Monday evening to remain unbeaten in the preliminary round.

Moose Jaw tied the game at 2-2 in the second period, but London rallied for the next three goals. Late in the second period, Moose Jaw’s Ethan Semeniuk notched his second goal of the game to cut the deficit to 5-3. With 3:55 remaining in regulation, Moose Jaw drew within one goal. However, they were unable to find an equalizer.
Barkey collected a pair of assists for his first two points of the tournament. Bonk chipped in one assist against Moose Jaw.
