Ted Nolan to Appear at March 14 Game vs Eagles
February 27, 2024 - Quebec Maritimes Junior Hockey League (QMJHL)
Moncton Wildcats News Release
Former Wildcats coach Ted Nolan is returning to Moncton for the team's game against the Cape Breton Eagles on March 14.
Nolan coached the Moncton Wildcats in the 2005-2006 season when the team won the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League's (QMJHL's) President Cup and went to the Memorial Cup. Under his direction, they won 52 of 70 regular season games.
"I'm excited to return to Moncton and see the team's new state-of-the-art facilities in the Avenir Centre," said Nolan. "I also want to share important information and raise awareness during Multiple Myeloma Month."
A year ago, Nolan was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. He received treatment and is recovering.
"In hockey, I faced many battles on the ice," said Nolan. "This is one battle I'm hoping others can avoid. Research is critical to help cure and prevent myeloma. If you're able, please take part in fundraising and awareness events."
The number of Canadians diagnosed with this second most common form of blood cancer rises every year. Despite its growing prevalence, the disease remains relatively unknown.
"Ted was a big part of our league championship in 2006," said Robert K. Irving, President of the Moncton Wildcats. "We hope our fans will join us on March 14 to welcome Ted to the Avenir Centre and learn more about this form of cancer."
