Manitoba Moose News Release
GIVING A CHANCE:
Eric Comrie continued his strong season this week. He earned his third win of the season on Tuesday in Milwaukee making 30 saves. Following a tough team loss Wednesday in Chicago he responded with a bounce back 33 save performance against the Marlies on Saturday.
RETURN TO ICE:
The Moose had four players return to the lineup for the Toronto games after missing a various number of games recently. Andrew MacWilliam, Jimmy Lodge, Axel Blomqvist and Peter Stoykewych all suited up in the final two games on the road trip in Toronto.
POINT STREAK:
JC Lipon extended his point streak to five games with an assist in the Chicago game on Wednesday. During his five game point streak he recorded two goals and four assists. Despite seeing his point streak come to an end in Toronto, the Regina, Saskatchewan native continues to lead the team in scoring with six goals and seven assists for 13 points in 21 games played.
TEDDY BEAR TOSS:
The Moose are thrilled to be bringing back the Teddy Bear Toss game to the MTS Centre when they face the Milwaukee Admirals on Saturday, Dec. 12. Once at the game, and in order to participate in the Teddy Bear Toss, fans must have their stuffed toy registered at one of the Teddy Bear Toss registration tables on the concourse (by no later than the 10-minute mark of the first period) where each stuffed toy will be bagged, sealed and returned to the fan.
During the first intermission, all fans with a registered stuffed toy will be prompted to throw their bag onto the ice. After being tossed on the ice, registered stuffed toys will be picked at random to win various prizes from Red River Co-op and Build-a-Bear.
IMPORTANT HOME STAND:
After an extended stay on the road the Moose will have a critical four game home stand where they face the Milwaukee Admirals and San Antonio Rampage. The Moose are 2-0-0-0 against the Admirals so far in the season series with a pair of 3-2 wins first on Oct. 29 and the second coming this past week on Dec. 1. The Moose will then host the San Antonio Rampage in the back half of the home stand next week. Both the Rampage and Admirals are currently ranked second in their divisions with Milwaukee in the Central Division along with the Moose and the Rampage in the Pacific Division.
