2019 Memorial Cup Game Eight

Championship

Rouyn-Noranda Huskies at Halifax Mooseheads

May 26 - 8:00pm

Scotiabank Centre

The biggest game to be played in Moose Country is happening tonight with our Halifax Mooseheads taking on the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies at 8pm. After 10 more days of hockey, the 2018-19 junior hockey season will come to an end today. This is the 8th time this month that these two teams have met each other and just like 15 days ago, a trophy is on the line. Rouyn-Noranda is looking to win their first Memorial Cup in club history while Halifax will be hoping to repeat what happened exactly six years ago when they won the Mooseheads only national championship. The Huskies are coming off a big 6-3 victory over the OHL champion Guelph Storm in Friday's semi-final game to get to this game. It's a sell out crowd for this evening but you can watch the match on Sportsnet if you don't have tickets.
