SAULT STE. MARIE, Ont. (CP) - Dustin Jeffrey scored twice in 48 seconds to lead the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds to a 6-2 win over the Windsor Spitfires in Ontario Hockey League action Friday.
Jeffrey added another goal and an assist for the Greyhounds (18-18-0-4), while Sean Jones, Brandon MacLean and Michael Quesnele had a goal apiece. Kevin Hudes and Blake Parlett replied for Windsor (13-23-1-1).
Spitfires coach Bob Boughner was debating some calls by eight-year veteran referee Scott Hutchinson.
Trailing by a goal, Hutchinson put the Spitfires down two men twice in the second period. The Greyhounds scored with both two-man advantages to open a three-goal lead.
"It's just a joke," Boughner said. "I think we ran into some real mysterious officiating."
It was a must-win situation for the Spitfires, who came in trailing the Greyhounds for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference.
"This was a big game," said Windsor forward Keaton Turkiewicz. "We go from being eight back to 12 and that's huge."
