HALIFAX - The Mooseheads didn't get shutout this time against the Moncton Wildcats. Danny Moynihan made sure of that when he scored with less then a minute left in the first period. It was a low shooting game in the first 40 minutes but despite that there was lots of action and when the Wildcats did have shots Zach Fucale was there to stop them from getting a goal. However, he couldn't stop them forever as two squeaked by him including one that should have been called no goal because of goaltender interference. Missed calls and bad penalties were once again the subject of conversation as twice the Refs You Suck chants were heard around the arena. Down by one, Moncton pulled their goalie and gave the Halifax faithful quite a scare as they were in the Herd's end for most of the last minute. The win ends a three game losing streak by the Moose.
