The Sudbury Wolves will take their 2-0 record back on home ice tonight when they  host the Soo Greyhounds at 7:30 p.m.

The Greyhounds will be looking to avenge their 4-3 loss to the Wolves on Sept.6 in the Lock City. In that game, Wolves' rookie rearguard Zach McFadden scored his first OHL goal while rookie forwards Jake Ryan and Dominik Kubalik also scored their first OHL goals for the Wolves. Nick Baptiste proved to be the hero of the game as the Ottawa native scored the shoot-out winner for the Wolves.

The Greyhounds line-up will feature a number of top players, including 19-year-old defenceman Ryan Sproul. The Detroit Red Wing draft pick is one of the top-rated defencemen in the OHL.  Seventeen-year-old rearguard Darnell Nurse was the captain of the Team Canada U-18 team that captured gold at the Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament in Czech Republic. NHL-drafted forwards Nick Cousins and Andrew Fritsch are also expected to make their first appearance against the Wolves on Friday night.

Tickets for Friday's game are now on sale at the Sudbury Arena ticket office.  Tickets are only $12 for all ages.
