Your BMO Western Hurricanes are moving very close to the top in the NSMBHL standings after winning both road games this weekend against a hard working Dartmouth MCK Ice Dawgs squad. 

On Saturday night, Hurricanes players managed to overcome much adversity and playing shorthanded for most of the first and second period.  The great work on the PK was on display as Hurricane penalty killers held the Ice Dawgs to very little opportunities.  Players continued to work hard and cashed in with five unanswered goals; two by Keith Getson, singles from Isaac Bridge, Cameron Jacquard and Christopher Goreham.  A solid defensive effort by everyone in limiting Dartmouth to nine shots had a focused Jacob Key earn a shutout for his squad.

On Sunday afternoon, the MCK Ice Dawgs came out hard from start to finish but strong crease work by Hurricanes goaltender Aaron Mantle and battle level by the D-Men held Dartmouth to only one goal as Hurricane shooters Jack Creaser, Matt Quigley and Ty Duffus scored three timely goals.  Make the final:  Hurricanes 3, Dartmouth 1. 

After Sunday's game, along with the win, the team presented Head Coach Brad Muise with a beautiful "Cake Boss" like Western Hurricanes cake to celebrate his birthday.  With some hungry hockey pleayers, the cake didnt last very long !

This upcoming weekend, your BMO Western Hurricanes jump on the bus Saturday morning to travel to Cape Breton to play the Cape Breton Major Bantam Cougars in a weekend series in North Sydney.

GO HURRICANES !!!!!
