OHL West Division rivals the Windsor Spitfires and Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds clash at the WFCU Centre Thursday night.
The Spitfires are 6-3-1 over the past 10 games, while the Greyhounds are 5-3-1-1.
Windsor is nine points back of the first-place Greyhounds, who have been given "honourable mention" in this week's CHL Top 10 ranking.
Spitfires forward Cole Purboo, who has 10 goals and 18 points in 26 games, says it's always a battle with the Soo.
"We had a good game against them a couple of weeks ago that didn't go our way, but that proved to us that we can compete with the top teams in the league," says Purboo. "We have to be hard on their speed and limit their skill."
