I was at the last game against Moncton and the crowds were great
And Mackinnon really does seem to be living up to this hype so far when a goal by Mackinnon was announsed the crowd went nuts, the year looks good :tup: |
:previous:
Glad to hear that Mackinnon is reigniting interest in the Mooseheads. :tup: You neglected to mention however that the Wildcats won the game.... :D |
Haha, of course you pick that out
close game though, should be a good one next time when all the players are back, :tup: |
Mooseheads beat the Wildcats 6-1 tonight on my NHL Slapshot game.

:previous: Great story. I am a bit disappointed by the attendance though. With Nathan MacKinnon and the Mooseheads doing so well, I would expect their attendance for such a game with Quebec to be a sell out. Nathan MacKinnon will probably be an NHL superstar in the future; Nova Scotians have a chance to see him play for 3 years or so before he moves on, so they shouldn't miss the opportunity.
I find it interesting that the Mooseheads attendance seems to be much better for Maritime Province teams than Quebec province teams. |
Here is his 5 goals:
I guarantee this game will help boost attendance for the rest of the season. |
Team Canada is probably kickin themselves now,
And i missed this game by one night, i was at the one on friday and I saw a hat trick and thought that was great and then this happens, haha He's now fith in scoring and the mooseheads are tied for fith in the league As far as attendence goes it would be hard to get a sellout because of the way the skyboxes block off the sightlines for the high upper bowl but after that im sure we can get close to sellouts again . |
Hosting 2013 top prospects game
This should be cool, There are three mooseheads that could go in the first round of the 2013 entry draft next year (Mackinnon, Fucale, and Drouin)
Mar 06, 2012 Halifax Mooseheads to Host 2013 Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game For Immediate Release Tuesday March 6, 2012 Toronto, ON – The Canadian Hockey League in association with the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, the Halifax Mooseheads Hockey Club, and Home Hardware Stores Limited, today announced that the 2013 Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game will be held at the Halifax Metro Centre, home of the Mooseheads, on Wednesday January 16, 2013. “The Canadian Hockey League is very excited to bring the 2013 Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game to Atlantic Canada for the first time in the history of this prestigious event,” said CHL President David Branch. “This event provides our players the opportunity to showcase their skills before hundreds of NHL scouts in a competitive best-on-best game in advance of the draft, while fans in Halifax and those watching across the country on Sportsnet and TVA Sports preview the next wave of NHL talent.” The 2013 Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game will mark the 18th annual showcase of the CHL’s top-40 NHL draft eligible players featuring talent from the Western Hockey League, Ontario Hockey League, and Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. “On behalf of the Dealer-Owners of more than 1,080 Home Hardware stores across Canada, we look forward to heading east to the Maritimes for the 2013 Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game,” said Paul Straus, President and CEO of Home Hardware Stores Limited. “The game in Halifax will mark 14 straight years of title partnership and watching future NHL stars excite hockey fans across the country.” Next season will mark the second time the game will be hosted by the QMJHL following the 2007 event in Quebec City. Other past cities to host include Toronto (1996-98, 2000, 2011), Calgary (1999, 2001), Saskatoon (2002), Kitchener (2003), London (2004), Vancouver (2005), Ottawa (2006), Edmonton (2008), Oshawa (2009), Windsor (2010), and Kelowna (2012). “The Halifax Mooseheads are very excited to host the 2013 Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game,” stated Mooseheads Majority Owner Bobby Smith. “We look forward to welcoming 40 of the best NHL draft eligible players in the CHL to the Halifax Metro Centre next January. Our season ticket holders and fans will be really interested to watch the top young players from the QMJHL match up with the best prospects from the OHL and the WHL.” The Mooseheads have been represented in this event by 11 players including 2012 NHL Entry Draft prospects Martin Frk and Andrew Ryan who competed for Team Cherry, coached by Mark Recchi and Ryan Huska last month in Kelowna. Notable Mooseheads such as Alex Tanguay and Logan MacMillan also participated in this event before being first round NHL selections. Tanguay picked up an assist for Team Cherry in a 4-2 win back in 1998 before going 12th overall to the Colorado Avalanche, while MacMillan scored a goal for Team Burns-Burgeron in 2007 as part of a 5-3 win before the Anaheim Ducks chose him 19th overall.

Congratulations to the Mooseheads. The better team certainly won the series this year. At least the Cats put up a valiant effort in game four.
The Wildcats season was effectively over after Gormley was traded. We didn't have the depth. We only had one good line (the Saulniers and Marek Hrvik) and a quality goaltender (Roman Will). That's not enough. In any event, good luck in the remainder of the playoffs! :tup: |
Last year Halifax got kicked in four and this year they do the opposite
I did expect them to win the series but they did a lot better than I thought Looking forward to getting to a game or two, hopefully they keep the momentum |
how has attendance been during the playoffs?
|
Last two home games were around 7500 give or take a few hundred
