GAME PREVIEW Happy Easter! This afternoon’s Good Friday matchup features your Halifax Mooseheads (13-16-5-3) vs the visiting Cape Breton Eagles (12-22-1-0) at 4pm at Scotiabank Centre. The Moose are looking for a bounce back game after a one-sided loss last night to Charlottetown that saw the Islanders not only win 6-2 but dominate on the shot clock 45-15. Halifax played that game with a depleted lineup as Senna Peeters, Cam Whynot, Kyle Petten and leading scorer Elliot Desnoyers all sat out as a precaution with virus symptoms. All players have tested negative for Covid-19. All four players will be game-time decisions this afternoon. Defenceman Jake Furlong was injured when he took a puck to the face last night and will miss today’s game.

SCOTTY’S 3 WHOPPERS OF THE GAME MORE OF THE SAME The QMJHL announced four additional games in April for the Mooseheads yesterday, all of them against Charlottetown. The Herd will play two on the road and twice at home (April 9th & 17th) while there is strong indications that play will be opened up to facing the New Brunswick teams as the regular season wraps up and the playoffs begin. That will be a welcome sight for all of us. Q DEBUT X2 Dylan Chisholm was signed and called up on an emergency basis last night to fill in on the blue line. The undrafted defenceman from Antigonish has played this season with the Valley Wildcats in Junior A and will be back in uniform for the Mooseheads again today. Michael Sack of Indian Brook, NS will make his debut today after being summoned from the Amherst Ramblers. Sack, also a defenceman, was originally picked in the 11th round by Halifax in 2019. CRUSHING THE CAPERS The season series has shifted drastically in favour of the Mooseheads since Christmas and the Herd have won five of the last six games against the Eagles while piling up some big offensive numbers. Halifax has scored 25 goals in the last four games vs Cape Breton with Zachary L’Heureux leading the charge with nine points.
