Your BMO Hurricanes entered the weekend with the task of facing the Bedford Barons and league leading Bay Gulls.

Entering Saturday's game in Bedford, your Hurricanes and Bedford were tied for 3rd place in the 12 team NSMBHL.  It was evident from the start,  Hurricane players were ready to play.  With a strong forcheck and battlle level down low, timely scoring, solid play by all D pairings and great goaltending, your Hurricanes came out on top with a 5 - 1 victory to grab sole possession of third place.

On Sunday, the second road game of the weekend took us to the Halifax Forum to face the league leading Bay Gulls.  With a victory, your Hurricanes would be tied with the Gulls for top spot in the league standings.  With this on the line, both squads played a game comparable to playoff speed and intensity.  Despite being around the Gulls net all afternoon, outchancing and outshooting the Gulls, Hurricane shooters were snake bitten all afternoon.  A really solid, entertaining hockey game from start to finish, constatntly putting pressure on the Bay Gulls, your Hurricanes could only manage to slide one goal by the Bay goaltender.  When the final buzzer sounded, the very good Gulls team came out on top with a 2 -1 victory.  With a split of this weekends games, we now have sole possesion of third place entering the Thanksgiving Holiday break.

The Hurricanes have Thanksgiving weekend off to relax with family and friends while the NSMBHL does not have any games scheduled due to the U14/U15/U16 Atlantic Challenge Cup.  The Hurricanes family wish all the best to Hurricane players Keith Getson who will represent Nova Scotia on the U14 team, Morgan Lunn who will represent Nova Scotia on the U15 team and Allie Munroe who will represent Nova Scotia on the female U15 team.  Good luck to all three.

Next up for the Hurricanes in NSMBHL action, the team travels to play Dartmouth MCK Ice Dawgs for two games on October 15th and 16th.
