The Wellington Dukes made their regular season home finale a winning one.
Mitchell Martan’s two goals, including the game-winner on the powerplay in the third period, pushed the Dukes to a 3-2 win over the Pickering Panthers Friday night.
Andrew Rinaldi scored the other Wellington goal, Ben Evans added two assists and Jonah Capriotti’s 34 saves earned him the win in net in what could be a potential first round playoff preview.
