Centre 200 (5,000) ~ Sydney, NS
It's game two of the annual Hurley Cup home and home series between the two Nova Scotian teams. Our Halifax Mooseheads head to Sydney to take on the Cape Breton Eagles this evening and will be hoping to rebound from a dismal game last night. Cape Breton is currently holding the last playoff spot but have been dominant versus the Mooseheads this season. Xavier Bouchard led the Eagles with a goal and 3 assists on Saturday evening as they defeated Halifax 7-1. It will be interesting to see who the Herd start in goal tonight, as despite letting in seven goals, Alex Gravel did play quite well and made it so the score was not higher. Gravel made 34 saves last night before being pulled. Halifax will need to be much better defensively after allowing almost 50 shots against. The 4th Hurley Cup will be awarded after the match, the Moose have won the last two while Cape Breton claimed the inaugural trophy.
Overall records
Mooseheads: 15-16-2-1 = 33pts (5th in Maritimes division, 13th overall)
