BMO Hurricanes take bite out of Cougars

   

It took until the four minute mark of the first to strike, Adams (unassisted), but the Hurricanes continued to get chances and the second period a couple of quick goals Benight (Baker) and Harnish (Jollimore) seem to be enough to take the wind of the Cape Breton Cougars sails. Another goal potted late in the second by Catherine Tufts sent the Hurricanes to the room with a 4-0 lead. A couple of nice saves by Wile who had sporadic work receiving only 10 shots in the game kept the Cougars at bay. The choppy third didn’t seem to have much flow with a few more penalties being called but the Hurricanes found the back of the net to pad their lead with goals by Duffus (Shatford, J. Messenger) and Jordan Messenger (Shatford, Jollimore) making the final 6-0. Things will get tougher on Saturday morning as the Nova X-Men will be seeking a little redemption from the last contest in exhibition play between the two teams.
