The McDonald's Jr A Tigers had 3 games this week. They travelled to Moncton last Thursday night to tangle with the Beavers. Both goalies stood strong as the Tigers outshot Moncton 48-39. Overtime settled nothing as both teams skated to a 2-2 tie. Tigers goals came from Colby Nichol ( David Shkreli) & Phil Nazair (Nichol, Fecteau). On Friday night your McDonald Jr A Tigers were host to the Antigonish Bulldogs. The tigers led after the 1st period 2-1 with goals by St Arthur's Rene Savoie (Trudel,Comeau) and Comeau (Savoie,Trudel). In the second period the tigers added 2 goals by Colby Nichol & David Shkreli (Nichol, Nazair). And finally both teams traded goals in the 3rd as Wendell Watson score his 10th goal of the season with the help of Mike Floyd & Alex Soucy. Both teams had about 30 shots and the Tigers walked away with a 5-2 win, 1 goal short of everyone getting a free Big Mac!! Maybe next time!! On Sunday the Tigers travelled to Charlottetown for a game against the Abbies. Well it was all Campbellton in this one as your McDonald's Jr A Tigers demolished the Abbies 6-2. Tigers Wendell Watson led the charge with 2 goals & 2 assists. Other tigers scorers were Chris Ennis (7) (Watson,Carter), Mike Floyd (9)( Watson, Simonson) Rene Savoie (2) (Leblanc, Pell) & David Shkreli (NIchol, Nazair). What a great weekend with 5 out of 6 points to move your tigers tied into first place with Miramichi and a game in hand. Goaltender Ryan Mensing was back in fine form as he gave up only 6 goals in 3 games. Unfortunately, it wasn't all good news this week as Listuguj native Denzel Isaac was operated on wednesday morning to repair a broken arm that he suffered last week in a game in Charlottetown from a vicious slash from Abbies forward Jamieson Chisolm. Isaac will be out for at least 8 to10 weeks but will return to the team after Christmas. We wish Denzel a speedy recovery as he is a big part of our team. McDonald's Jr A Tigers next home game will be Nov 12, 8pm as they host the Weeks Crushers from Pictou County, NS.

Don't miss it, who knows you might go home with a free Big Mac!!!
