GAMEDAY 42: at Charlottetown

IT"S GAMEDAY
CHARLOTTETOWN ISLANDERS vs. HALIFAX MOOSEHEADS
Puck drops at 7:00pm
Eastlink Centre (3,717) ~ Charlottetown, PEI

PREVIEW - Five days after their first meeting of 2014 got postponed, the Mooseheads and host Islanders will battle it out in a mid week game. Both teams look different from the last time they met as Halifax has part ways with Liam Alcalde and Max Lindsay while Charlottetown has had pretty much a total overhaul losing their captain, Jack Nevins, and possibly their best goalie in franchise history, Antoine Bibeau among others. That's what happens over the trade period. 


This is the fifth meeting this season between these two teams. Halifax leafs the series 3-1 with the last game being a 4-1 win for Halifax.
