It’s that time of year again! I’m excited once again to welcome everyone back for another season of Generals Hockey.

Each year, my goal is to uphold the legacy this organization has built throughout its long history. As always, we want to add another OHL and Memorial Cup title to our already league best totals, for not only the organization, but for you the fans.

On behalf of our entire Generals family, I want to thank our sponsors, billets, new and returning season ticket holders, and each and every one of our loyal fans for their neverending support.

ROCCO TULLIO PRESIDENT

I want to take this opportunity to welcome all of you to the 2022-23 season of the Oshawa Generals and the Ontario Hockey League. This welcome back certainly goes to our legion of loyal supporters but also welcome back to the players, players families, billets and staff. It should also be noted that we cant wait to return to a normal schedule where we all get to see the stars of tomorrow from across the whole OHL. Every season takes on its own theme and feel. Every season takes on a life of its own. This year’s season will be the most competitive we have had in a few years. One factor is that we will again be returning to a full OHL schedule and with the Eastern Conference shaping up to be the most competitive it has been in years, every point and game will be a must for top rated performances. The addition of new Head Coach, Derek Laxdal and his winning pedigree is exactly what the doctor ordered, and the timing couldn’t be better. Along with new Associate Coach, Steve O’Rourke and Mike Hedden returning for his second season, this staff could go up against any in the CHL. You will continue to see a long line of future Generals stars on the ice again this season and I cant thank the scouts enough for all the hard work they do.

The returning players have positioned us to be fighting for hardware again soon and the new players will have to get on board quickly. That being said, we are on a collision course with a couple of other teams in the Eastern Conference. If we have any desire to get another Bobby Orr trophy and then battle for the J. Ross Robertson trophy, business will need to be taken care of each and every night. Nothing is given and everything will be earned.

Our past is certainly something that everyone in our region, city and organization are very proud of. During this season our entire focus right now is on the present. We want to have the best team possible to challenge for silverware again.

Lets get behind the team from the start and cheer them onto victory.

Go Gens Go!!!!!!

OSHAWA GENERALS VS. NORTH BAY BATTALIONS

SUNDAY, JANUARY 29TH

THE GAME DAY GAZETTE This matchup may be taking place in 2023, but it’s going to feel a lot more like 1983 when both the Generals and Battalion take the Tribute Communities Centre ice on Sunday night.

In Oshawa’s second annual Retro Night, both teams will be dawning modern twists to their retro eras, with Oshawa suiting up in their navy diagonal ‘Oshawa’ jerseys, while the Battalion respond with their recently debuted centurion jerseys.

Fans can expect to be taken back in time, with music many will remember from the Generals time at the Civic Auditorium. In the days leading up to the game, fans were asked to submit musical requests, and more than 150 requests were made.

In addition to the music, fans can enjoy a retro look on the Generals’ scoreboard, in addition to pieces of history that are always sprinkled in around the arena.

For a trip through the Generals’ history, be sure to look up while you’re on the concourse for the Ring of Honour, presented by the Great Canadain Brewhouse.

Can you find your favourite member of Oshawa Generals’ history?

On the ice, it’s the first time this season Oshawa will host the Battalion, losing both games in North Bay already this season by a combined score of 10-5.

Oshawa enters this game as winners of back-to-back games, 9-5 over Windsor and a 2-0 victory over Kingston. In a recent stretch of success, the Generals are winners in five of their last seven games.

Last Meeting: North Bay defeated the Gens 3-2 the last time these two connected. The Battalion jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the first period and never looked back. In the comeback effort, Stuart Rolofs and Joseph Serpa scored for the Generals, but they couldn’t find a third to tie the game.

PLAYERS TO WATCH CALUM RITCHIE

JACOB OSTER

EVERYONE

Fresh off the heels of the CHL/NHL Top Prospects game in British Columbia, Ritchie is silencing those who think he’s no longer a first-round prospect. With 42 points in 42 games played, Ritchie has begun to find the consistent offense he may have been missing earlier this season. With a goal and assist in B.C., and 11 points in his last seven OHL games, Ritchie is leading his team on the playoff push down the stretch.

Sometimes it’s as simple as a new environment that can change the results.

For Jacob Oster, that’s exactly what seems to be happening. Since arriving in Oshawa, Oster boasts an impressive stat line of 2-1-0-0, 1.35 GAA, and a 0.951 save percentage. With Oster in the net, the Gens are proving to the rest of the OHL that they can beat anyone.

Plain and simple, this North Bay team is SCARY. With players amongst the league leaders in almost every single category, there’s nowhere to hide against the Battalion. Matvey Petrov sits in the top five for scoring with 62 points, Ty Nelson sits second in defensemen scoring with 53 points, and in the crease, it’s Dom DiVincentiis stopping everything that comes his way. If Oshawa is coming away with two points tonight, they’ll need a complete team effort.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 27TH

LAST GAME RECAP

The Oshawa Generals continued their recent winning ways, backing up their 9-5 win over the Windsor Spitfires with a 2-0 road win over the Kingston Frontenacs on Friday night.

It was a first period for the Oshawa Generals to remember, despite the fact they didn’t score. For the first eight minutes of the frame, there was nothing Kingston could do to get the puck, let alone get it out of their zone. Even with the dominating offensive zone pressure, the Generals couldn’t solve Frontenac netminder, Mason Vaccari.

Both goalies were perfect after 20 minutes.

The second period saw some of Oshawa’s early efforts paying off. Barely more than a minute into the middle period, OA forward Ryan Gagnier fed a puck to the slot in front of the net to Calum Ritchie, for an easy one-timer into the net. Fresh off his appearance at the Kubota CHL/NHL Prospects game in Kamloops, Ritchie was able to score his 18th of the season. Ritchie also added a goal and an assist in Kamloops.

Generals goaltender Jacob Oster wasn’t tested very much in the second period but stood tall when he was called upon, stopping all 14 shots he faced to that point.

The third period was much of the same story for both teams, with on and off pressure, amounting to few chances amounting to any real goal opportunities. Kingston’s best chance at tying the game came on a three-on-one break which saw their forward miss the net.

Despite some penalty troubles, Oshawa killed both, extending their recent penalty kill streak to 18 for their last 18, and 36 of 38 penalties killed since January 1st. This goes hand-in-hand with their league-leading power play of more than 25 per cent.

Kingston couldn’t muster any more legit chances, and Calum Ritchie would score goal number 19 into the empty net to seal the 2-0 victory for Oshawa.

Jacob Oster continues his hot start as a General, stopping all 19 shots for his first career OHL shutout. Since joining the Generals, Oster is 2-1-0-0 with a 1.34 GAA and a 0.953 save percentage.

The Generals are now winners in four of their last six games, and will look to continue the winning ways on Sunday in front of yet another near-sellout crowd against the North Bay Battalion on Retro Night!

SEVENTH HEAVEN? A

S E A S O N - L O N G

R O A D

T R I P

They say seven is a lucky number. Some believe seven is the number that represents perfection and completion.

Even the Generals can relate to the number seven. From 1938 to 1944, the Generals won seven straight OHL championships. While on the topic of winning, the Generals have also won seven George Richardson Memorial Trophies in their history, from 1938-1940, 1942-1944, and again in 1966. More recently, Oshawa has finished seven of their last nine seasons with a winning record.

On the other side of things, the Generals have lost seven Memorial Cup tournaments – to go along with their five wins, don’t forget.

This season specifically, the number seven represents the length of their longest road trip of the year, seven games. Seven different opponents waited for the Generals bus to pull into their arenas for OHL hockey.

While the Gens played seven games on the road, we want you to play one game while reading the rest of this story. With stops in North Bay, Sudbury, Hamilton, Kitchener, Erie, Peterborough and Kingston, how many kilometers do you think were racked up over the last three weeks? We’ll reveal it at the end, but just think about it for now.

Starting in North Bay, the Generals arrived at the North Bay Memorial Gardens hot off the heels of a thrilling 5-4 overtime victory over the Mississauga Steelheads at home. The fun ended abruptly upon arrival in North Bay. The central division leaders made quick work of the Gens, scoring, you guessed it, seven goals.

While the Generals did come hot out of the gate going up 2-0 midway through the first, North Bay answered with three of their own. By the end of the second period, North Bay was off the races up 5-3.

Not the best start to a long road trip.

The very next night, Oshawa continued north to pay a visit to the Sudbury Wolves, a team much closer to them in the standings. On December 18th the two teams met for the first time of the season.

If you catch the theme here, you’d know where we’re going with this. Sudbury won that game too, 7-1. In Sudbury now, the tough times continued for Oshawa, dropping their second straight game to the Wolves, this time by a score of 6-4. Sudbury jumped to a 3-0 lead and never looked back. Both Stuart Rolofs and rookie Beckett Sennecke were bright spots for the Generals, both having multi-point evenings.

Heading south, the Generals were able to find the win column once again, taking down the new look Hamilton Bulldogs 3-2. Hamilton, who like the Generals are in a retooling period, had just parted way with Avery Hayes, Gavin White, and Logan Morrison at the trade deadline. Like so many times this season, it was the Generals jumping out to a 2-0 lead early in the game, except this time they held on. It was Patrick Leaver’s final game as an Oshawa General before being traded to the Guelph Storm. In the game he stopped 26/28 shots.

With some momentum on their side, Oshawa’s next stop was Kitchener, Ont., to take on the shockingly underperforming Kitchener Rangers. Despite the fact the Rangers have a roster with six NHL draftees, they find themselves stuck at 9th in the Western Conference standings. Both teams in the spotlight of a TSN broadcast were ready to impress the nation, but it was Oshawa with more screen time. Projected first round NHL draft pick Calum Ritchie stole the show with two goals and assist, leading Oshawa to a 5-2 victory. Carter Bickle stopped 32/34 for the win.

Winners of back-to-back games, Oshawa crossed the southern border into Erie and quickly took their two points back to the border. With the 4-1 victory over Erie, it was Oshawa’s third win in a row and kept them in the tight race for the 8th and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Overage forward Ryan Gagnier scored two in the game, his 15th and 16th of his season. Newest Generals Jacob Oster made his debut with a 26 save performance.

Back in Canada, the second last game of the trip was the most highly anticipated, for no other reason than a classic Gens vs Petes matchup. Both teams are moving in very different directions, with Peterborough buying at the deadline and sitting at 4th in the Eastern Conference. Despite the difference in the standings, Oshawa once again opened the scoring. Ryan Gagnier scored a shorthanded goal to give Oshawa the 1-0 lead.

It was his seventh point in his last seven periods of play.

The rest of the game was a back and forth affair, with both goaltenders standing tall. It wasn’t until the remaining 51 seconds of the game that either side would take the lead for good. Brennan Othmann scored his second of the game to give Peterborough the 3-2 victory.

Back and forth scoring left the game tied 2-2 with less than six minutes to go in the game, and for the second night in a row, Oshawa would allow a late goal that ended up being the deciding factor. The 3-2 loss meant the road trip finished with a record of 3-4-0-0, with two straight 3-2 losses to division rivals.

The final game of the trip was on January 20th in Kingston, when the Generals made their first visit of the season to the Leon’s Centre. A win would give them a winning record on the trip, a loss would put them at 3-4.

When the bus pulled back into the Tribute Communities Centre late on Friday evening, The team could take a day to rest before their first home game in three weeks. Remember the question we asked you off the top? With seven games, seven different cities, two overnights, and six points, the Generals logged around 2,410 kilometers on their season long road trip.

Oshawa trailed after the first period, 1-0, a period called sloppy for both sides by Calum Ritchie. Neither side could control the puck for much of the period, and very little offense came of it. One positive for the Generals came early in the second period when their league-best power play clicked once again to tie the game.

Maybe some call seven a lucky number, and maybe some call it perfection – but over the last three weeks, the Generals would look at the number seven and just call it junior hockey.

SERPA SPENDING FINAL MONTHS OF

OHL CAREER IN OSHAWA

Joseph Serpa first laced up his OHL skates for the Kitchener Rangers in 2018. Serpa was drafted by the Rangers 77th overall, in the 4th round of the 2018 OHL Priority Selection, and made his OHL debut that just a few months later on October 27th against the Oshawa Generals.

It was on February 21st of the same season that he earned his first career point, an assist against the Niagara IceDogs.

The Cambridge, Ont., native broke onto the full time roster the next season, in 2019-2020, appearing in 50

games for the Rangers. On December 18th, 2019, Serpa would score the first goal of his OHL career against the Owen Sound Attack. It was the first of five goals in his first full season.

Following the cancelled 2020-2021 season, a 19-yearold Serpa took the Rangers offense by storm, winning the attention of not only his coaches, but the fans as well.

In 62 games in 2021-2022, Serpa scored a new career high of 20 goals and 49 assists for 69 points in the regular season. With the best season of his career

behind him, Serpa entered the playoffs and oneupped himself, scoring another six goals and nine assists in just 12 games. Serpa finished second in Rangers scoring that season, behind only Mike Petizian’s 70 points. Serpa played six fewer games than his teammate.

Caught on a roster trying to build a championship team, while also staying young enough to not shoot themselves in the foot, Serpa was amongst those traded away from the Rangers in the 20222023 season. In his first 25 games with the Rangers, Serpa had already scored half his goal totals from a season before.

On December 13th, Serpa was acquired by the Oshawa Generals, along with three draft choices, while Lleyton Moore went the other way to the Rangers.

The 2002 forward took a few games to settle into the new systems with new teammates, but has begun to find ways onto the scoresheet as an Oshawa General. In 13 games with his new team so far, Serpa has scored three goals and added two assists for five points, including his thrilling overtime winner against the Mississauga Steelheads on January 3rd.

After Boston Bruins prospect and then team leader in points Brett Harrison was traded, it was clear Serpa was brought in as an overage forward to not only lead in the dressing room, but add that extra oomph of offense that may have been missing without Harrison in the lineup.

Serpa may only be a Generals for the next two months, but Gens fans should be excited with what he brings to the organization both on and off the ice for the rest of the 2022-2023 season.

OSTER’S CAREER TURNS TO

OSHAWA

Goaltending in the OHL is a hot commodity – great goaltending is like finding a diamond in the rough.

The Oshawa Generals think they’ve found that great goaltender in Jacob Oster.

Drafted by the Guelph Storm 92nd overall in the 5th round of the 2020 OHL Priority selection, Oster took his rookie year by storm. Pun intended.

In 34 games during the 2021-2022 season, Oster played to a record of 16-8-3-1 and had an impressive goals against average of just 2.93 and a save percentage of 0.892. Alongside goaltending partner Owen Bennett, the Storm had the lowest goals against total in the Western Conference with just 228.

Hist first career win actually took place in his debut to the OHL, on October 13th, 2021 against the Owen Sound Attack.

This season, the Ottawa, Ont. native found himself struggling a bit with the Storm. His play from just a season ago wasn’t lost, but his ability to remain consistent just wasn’t there. In 26 games with the Storm, Oster had a 9-12-2-0 record in Guelph, with an inflated goals against average of 4.63.

In Oshawa, the same scenario was taking place with former number one Patrick Leaver. Impressive numbers from a season ago just weren’t there, and it was clear both goalies needed a new environment to find their way again.

On January 9th, Oshawa and Guelph flipped goaltenders and Jacob Oster became an Oshawa General.

It took only one game for Oster to turn in the best performance of the 2022-2023 season. In his first appearance as a General, Oster stopped 26/27 shots against the Erie Otters on Saturday, January 14th, giving him his first win as a Gen and 10th on the season.

A week later in Peterborough, Oster turned in yet another impressive performance, turning away 35/38 shots in a 3-2 loss to the Petes.

With a playoff push on the agenda, and a year to build for the future on the horizon, Oster is making a case that he should be considered the goalie to get Oshawa where they want to be. If his early two-game preview of a 2.02 goals against average and stunning 0.938 save percentage is any indication of what he’s capable of, he has a pretty good case.
