The Hamilton Bulldogs dropped their pre-season opener 5-2 to
the Toronto Marlies at the Oshawa Civic Auditorium. Jamie Tardif and Cory

Friday, September 30th - Bulldogs 7 Cleveland 4
In front of an enthusiastic crowd at the Welland Arena, the
Bulldogs jumped out to a 4-0 first period lead on goals by Andrei Kostitsyn,
Welland native Jamie Tardif, Derick Martin and Cory Urquhart. The Barons
rallied in the third but fell short as Hamilton picked up their first win of
the pre-season, defeating Cleveland 7-4. Francis Lemieux scored the game-winner
midway through the second period, and Kostitsyn, with his second of the night,
and Michael Lambert added insurance markers to seal the victory. Mike Iggulden,
Riley Armstrong, Marc-Andre Roy, and Josh Hennessy had goals for the Barons.
Olivier Michaud picked up the win for Hamilton, while Brett Jaeger took the
loss for Cleveland.
Sunday, October 2nd - Bulldogs 1 Toronto 4
In their second meeting of the pre-season, the Bulldogs were
once again defeated by the Toronto Marlies, this time by a score of 4-1 at the
Haldimand County Caledonia Centre. The game was tied after the first period
with Luke Fulgham scoring for Toronto and Michael Lambert replying for
Hamilton. With Andrei Kostitsyn serving a five-minute high-sticking major, the
Marlies took the lead on two power-play goals by Dominic D’Amour and Jeremy
Williams. Brendan Bell’s power-play goal 1:27 into the third period rounded out
the scoring. Olivier Michaud and Jeff Deslauriers combined to make 27 saves for
the Bulldogs, while Marlies’ goaltender J-F Racine allowed only one goal on 32
shots.
