A tough second period proved costly for the Sarnia Sting Wednesday night, as the visiting Guelph Storm capitalized on a three-goal outburst to secure a 5-2 victory.
Cole Emerton had a goal and an assist for Sarnia and Easton Walos scored his club-leading eighth of the season.
Ryan Roobroeck opened the scoring for Guelph just 21 seconds into the game for his seventh of the season. Adrien Bartovic, Jaakko Wycisk, Vladimir Dravecky and Tyler Hopkins also scored for the Storm.
The Sting were outshot 31-29 by Guelph, though Sarnia held the advantage in the face-off-circle, winning 31 of 59 draws.
Sarnia (5-4-1-0) will look to bounce back as they open a home-and-home series Friday night against the Saginaw Spirit.
Puck drop at Progressive Auto Sales Arena is at 7:05 p.m.
You can catch the game live on Big Country 103.9FM.
