Hants Exhibition Arena is located on Wentworth Road in Windsor.

The Avalanche will go up against the 3-1-0 Northeast Kings Titans on Nov. 7 at 7 p.m.

The Avalanche has played three road games to date and are 2-1-0 on the season.

With the graduation of seven players from last season's team, high school hockey fans will be able to see at home for the first time the nucleus of new players. Some of the key players to watch for include Liam Parker, who presently leads the team in goals, Liam Kelley, Jacob Caldwell, Jonny Parker and Ben Dixon — to name a few.

Returning from last season are Tyler Lapierre, who leads the team in points, Nick Gerhardt, Keeshaun Such, Jordan Spence, who is perhaps one off the team's fastest skaters, and Joe Beaton.

They hope to enter their home opener with a 3-1-0 record as they travel to Kingston for a game with the West Kings Wolverines Nov. 6 at 8 p.m.

 

Tourney next weekend

The Avon View Avalanche are now just a week away from hosting the 25th Annual Birthplace of Hockey High School Tournament Nov. 12-15.

Three teams from New Brunswick will be playing in this season's tournament. Other teams taking part include Pictou County’s Northumberland Nighthawks, the Sackville Kingfishers from the Metro High School Hockey League, Central Kings Gators and Horton Griffins.
