The Barrie Colts have halted a mini-skid to take control of the Central Division.
Barrie downed the visiting Peterborough Petes 3-1 on Saturday, allowing them to leapfrog North Bay for the division lead, and second in the conference.
The victory comes after a two-game skid saw Barrie lose in a shootout to Sault Ste. Marie and then an overtime defeat to Saginaw.
But those blemishes obscure an otherwise terrific last few weeks for the Colts, where they’ve picked up a point in every game since Oct. 24.
Next up for Barrie is tilt against the Sudbury Wolves on Wednesday.
