Islanders Kick off Pre-Season against Newfoundland Regiment

Charlottetown Islanders News Release


The Charlottetown Islanders return to action tonight for their first pre-season test, hosting the Newfoundland Regiment at 7:00 p.m. at Simmons Sports Centre.

It's the opening chance to see the Islanders measure up against QMJHL competition following the conclusion of Training Camp and the Cusson Cup.

The Cusson Cup wrapped up yesterday, with Team Black sweeping the three-game series over Team White by scores of 5-2, 7-4, and 3-2. Standout performances came from newcomer Brady Peddle and 2024 draft picks Charles-Albert Pouliot and Ben Masi, who helped Team Black, coached by Kevin Henderson, claim the trophy in front of strong crowds at Simmons.

With 16 players reassigned following camp, the lineup tonight will feature plenty of youth looking to make their mark.

Islanders Head Coach and General Manager Jim Hulton says, "It's an evaluation for some people as we get down to the nitty gritty for final spots."

The matchup also reignites a familiar rivalry. Last season, Charlottetown and Bathurst-now the Newfoundland Regiment-went back and forth in the standings all year long, battling in one of the fiercest rivalries of the 2024-25 campaign.

Fans can expect the intensity to pick right back up as the Islanders' next wave of talent gets its first shot against one of the club's biggest rivals.

Puck drops at 7:00 p.m. at Simmons Sports Centre. Buy Tickets Here.
