OHL Roundup: Mitch Marner keeps producing, Knights beat Generals 5-2

LONDON, Ont. - London's Mitch Marner has found another gear.

The Toronto Maple Leafs draft pick extended his point streak to 11 games with a goal and two assists as the Knights downed the visiting Oshawa Generals 5-2 on Thursday in Ontario Hockey League action.

After starting the junior season with seven points in his first six games, Marner has exploded for nine goals and 28 points during his recent run.

Christian Dvorak also scored once and set up two more for the Knights (14-3-2) while J.J. Piccinich, Owen MacDonald and Aaron Berisha added the others.

Sullivan Sparkes and Sam Harding supplied the offence for the Generals (9-11-3), who have dropped five games in a row.

London's Tyler Parsons made 16 saves for the win as Jeremy Brodeur kicked out 23-of-27 shots for Oshawa.

The Knights went 1 for 6 on the power play while the Generals failed to score on three chances with the man advantage.

Oshawa defenceman Jacob Graves was ejected for unsportsmanlike conduct in the first period.
