Pink in the Rink a Success & Hurricanes Sweep Weekend

   

A wonderful and supportive crowd was on hand Sunday afternoon in Barrington to show their support for the fight against Breast Cancer and Cancer Awareness.  The Hurricanes organization are really grateful for the support in helping us donate to this great cause. Please take a look at more photos of the day in the "photo gallery section".  It was a fun day at the rink !

Thanks to outstanding goaltending by Aaron Mantle, your Hurricanes were very fortunate to come out with a 3 - 2 victory in their Friday evening road game in a lacklustre effort against the Valley Wildcats.  On Sunday for their Pink in the Rink game, Hurricane force winds were roaring on the South Shore and in the Barrington Arena.  Your Hurricanes came out to show the supportive crowd why they are only a point out of first place in the NSMBHL standings.  With solid, hard working play from start to finish, the final was Hurricanes 7, NewBridge Academy 1.  Jacob Key was sharp in nets and only had the shutout broken late in the third.  All lines, D pairings contributed in a real deep team effort.  Check out the game results section for statistical details of the weekend games. 

The Hurricanes are only one point behind Halifax for top spot in the NSMBHL standings as they head into a weekend off.  This weekend your Hurricane players will be participating in helping out younger minor hockey players around the South Shore and SouthWest Nova in various development weekend activities.  The players are very much looking forward to participating in this great experience.
