On September 27th and 28th our team will be participating in the Early-Bird tournament in Antigonish, hosted by The Nova's. It will be the last opportunity for all players and goaltenders to show the coaching staff their ability to compete at this level. They are all making it tough on the staff. However decisions have to be made and releases will have to happen to get down to our final roster. The players attending the early bird are now listed on the league web-site, The Nova Scotia U15 Major League.

With just 9-games remaininig in our 33-regular season schedule, we hold down 2nd place. Bedford tops the league with 57 points and we trail by only 2 points with 55 points, but we also have one game in hand. However as you can see from the standings The Nova's, Truro, The Gulls, and the Bombers are only 5, 6 or 7 points behind. In our league you receive 3 points for a regular win, 2-Pts for an overtime/shootout win and 1-Pt for an overtime/shootout loss. 

Our team is well balanced with our offense, defense and goaltending. Everybody adds their own little piece to help in the team's success. We are averaging 5-goals a game, while only giving up an average of 2.45 against. This only happens when you pay attention to detail. We take nothing for granted, and we respect every opponent we play. As we head to the end of the season come out and watch our team. We are playing tonight at 6:05 in North Sydney against The Rangers (East Hants/Sackville) and tomorrow 11:05 against the Wearwell Bombers(Pictou).
