Former Mooseheads player to make NHL debut tonight

Former Halifax Mooseheads forward Alexandre Grenier will make his NHL debut tonight when his Vancouver Canucks visit the Winnipeg Jets. The Canucks called up the 24 year old this afternoon as the team has 3 players out of the lineup due to injury. Originally from Laval, QC, Grenier has been playing the last three seasons for Vancouver's farm team; the Utica Comets.

In his one season with the Herd, Alexandre collected 25 goals and 64 points.

Fans can watch the game on national television on Sportsnet.

Herd come close but fall to Sea Dogs in OT

The Herd came up short with a big push but lost in OT to the Saint John Sea Dogs. With a solid goaltending performance from Eric Brassard the Herd come up short in OT.  With the spark of the fight that saw Kelly Bent and Nicholas Blachman both getting five minutes for fighting and a game misconduct for a staged fight, it sparked the Mooseheads after that they scored two goals to tie it up and to bring it in to overtime. Andrew Shewfelt and Taylor Ford both scored in the second period. Both teams showed tonight that they don't really like each other with a lot of chippy play and a fight, as well as some rough stuff after the whistles. With getting an assist on Taylor Ford's goal Danny Moynihan continues his point streak for the Moose. Halifax now gets set to host the Canada Russia Super Series on Thursday night. It will be the final game of the series here in Halifax. Halifax head coach Dom Ducharme will be the head coach for team QMJHL and Max Fortier will also be one of the forwards. Puck drop is at 8pm and the game will also be televised on Sportsnet.

K.C. Regional Irving Centre (3,162) ~ Bathurst, NB

On the road again. Your Halifax Mooseheads will travel to New Brunswick to take on the Acadie-Bathurst Titan tonight for the team's first of 5 road games in the month of November. The Herd will also participate in a Maritime 3-in-3 this weekend, visiting Bathurst and Moncton then hosting Saint John on Saturday. Despite the QMJHL only being 2 months into the 2015-16 regular season, tonight's game will be the fifth between these two teams. Through the first 4 games, each team has two wins and two losses, as well as a shutout each. Bathurst and Halifax are pretty evenly matched this season with both going through rebuilds, however the Titan's scoring is more spread throughout the team. Acadie-Bathurst has the most players in the Q with 10 or more points at 11, while the Mooseheads only have 5. Both teams will be looking to continue the momentum that they got last weekend.

Overall Records

Penalties Almost Hurt Herd for Second Night

Photo - Metro Halifax

Fifteen. That's a number that coach Dom Ducharme is going to want his team not to repeat in a set of games again. Your Halifax Mooseheads have been given 15 penalties over the last two games, 8 on Friday night and 7 tonight. About a third of the penalties for Halifax probably should not have been called but the Mooseheads are going to need to be more disciplined and not let bad calls get in their head if they hope to win games. Luckily, two Baie-Comeau powerplay goals did not prohibit the Herd from getting the victory this evening. Third year forward Danny Moynihan seems to have taken over Max Fortier's firing ways, scoring another two goals tonight including the overtime winner. Fortier did have his first multi-point game since October 22, scoring a goal and picking up two assists against the Drakkar that helped the home team get a 5-4 overtime win. The game started off pretty intense and physical with 3 goals being scored in 39 seconds which would actually be the only scoring in the first period.

Alumni Update: Plenty Former Herd on CIS Teams; first month stats

There are plenty of former Halifax Mooseheads playing on university hockey teams this season. If a junior player can not get a pro contract from their play in the juniors, they generally go to school more fully and play for their university team. The Mooseheads have former players all over Canada playing in the CIS, mostly in the Atlantic University Sport division. Five former Herd players are participating in their first season of university hockey during 2015-16; Luca Ciampini (Concordia), Phil Gadoury (Dalhousie), Max Lindsay (Toronto), Austyn Hardie (Saint Mary's) and Jesse Lussier (Dalhousie). Second year Saint Mary's Huskies forward Stephen MacAulay had a good week, being named the team's athlete of the week on Monday.

Durandeau Added to U17 Challenge, Joins Flower in BC

Photo - CHL.ca

Arnaud Durandeau will be gone from the Halifax Mooseheads lineup until next weekend. The 16 year old was a late addition to Team Canada's U17 Challenge roster after a player originally named to the team was injured. Durandeau will be on Canada Black for the U17 World Hockey Challenge which begins today and goes to November 7.

The U17 Challenge pits players from Canada, Czech Republic, Sweden, United States, Russia and Finland who are 17 and younger. Hockey Canada hosts the event every year and puts 3 teams together to go up against the other teams in the 8 day tournament. Each team plays 3 preliminary games against the teams in their group.

Durandeau joins rookie defenseman Walter Flower in British Columbia for the week. Flower will be on Canada Red. Both boys play today, Durandeau and Canada Black against Canada White at 5:30pm Atlantic time while Flower and Canada Red will go against the United States at 10pm. The two Mooseheads rookies won't play each other until possibly the quarter finals or later, depending on where each team places.
