Isaac Ratcliffe scored the winner late in the third period and Liam Herbst made 37 saves as Guelph doubled up the Spitfires 4-2 yesterday afternoon at the WFCU Centre. Nolan Makkonen and James McEwan gave the Storm (17-25-4) a two-goal lead and Garrett McFadden added an empty netter.
Connor Corcoran and Aaron Luchuk had goals for Windsor (29-9-7), which got 22 saves from Mario Culina.
The Spitfires were missing several of their top players, with Logan Brown, Logan Stanley and Jeremiah Addison all out with injuries.
The Spits could have moved into a first place tie with the Soo Greyhounds with a win, but remain two points back.
The Spits are in Sault Ste. Marie this coming Friday.
