OHL Roundup Fuels Hot Debates: Firebirds Soaring, IceDogs Streak Snapped, and More!

The Flint Firebirds' five-game winning streak has them burning up the OHL, but is this a sign of true contention or just a hot streak? Their victory over the Niagara IceDogs, snapping Niagara's impressive seven-game run, definitely adds fuel to the fire. Where do you see these two teams finishing in the standings?

Elsewhere, the Colts' offensive explosion against the Battalion raises eyebrows. Is Barrie a legitimate threat in the East, or are they pretenders? Their goaltending seemed to hold up under pressure, but can they maintain that consistency?

The Sting's nail-biter win over the Spirit highlights the importance of late-game heroics. Which teams are showing the clutch gene this season, and who is consistently falling short when it matters most?

And let's talk about shutouts! Joey Costanzo's blank slate for the Spitfires against the Greyhounds is impressive. Is he the top goalie in the OHL right now? Who are your other candidates for best netminder?

Finally, the Bulldogs' offensive outburst against the Attack begs the question: Are they the most dangerous offensive team in the league? Or are there other contenders for that title?
