Half season left for Muskies


With eight games on the schedule for January, the Shelburne Muskies still have time to move in the WOAA standings.
Currently the team is in the number six spot in the North Division Standings.
The Muskies got off to a slow start but picked up a couple of important wins in December.
On December 4, they travelled to Durham to take on the Thundercats and left with a 5–4 win in an exciting game that went into overtime and ended with a shoot-out in the Muskies favour.
They followed up with another overtime win on December 12, when they hosted the Saugeen Shores Winterhawks.
That game was a tough battle that saw the Muskies take it to the very end and leave with a 2-1 win.
Mid December also saw a change on the Shelburne bench.
Dave Ritchie, a former player for the Muskies returned to the team and took over head coach duties after the current coach stepped down.
That leaves Ritchie calling the shots with around half of the regular season still to go.
The North Division is currently lead by the Maplton-Minto 81's who have 28 points and a 14–1 record so far for the season.
The Durham Thundercats are in second place – close behind with 27 points and 13 wins so far.
They are followed by the Ripley Wolves with 17 points and the Shallow Lake Crushers with 16 points.
The Muskies have played their last game for 2015.
They will be back on the ice for a road game on Friday, January 8, when they travel to Shallow Lake to take on the Crushers.
Their next home game will get under way at the Centre Dufferin Recreation Complex on Saturday, January 16, when they host the Saugeen Shores Winterhawks.
That game is scheduled for 8:00 p.m.
