Hockey Aigles Bleues Host Reds and Huskies

Head coach Marc-André Côté is hoping he found a way to motivate his players as the Université de Moncton play two weekend home games during the annual homecoming activities on the Moncton campus in Atlantic University Sport (AUS) women’s hockey action.

The Aigles Bleues (0-2-0=0 point) will host the AUS newest team, the University of New Brunswick Reds (0-0-2=2 points), on Saturday at 7 p.m. and the Saint Mary’s University Huskies (2-0-0=4 points), on Sunday at 2 p.m. Both games will take place at the J.-Louis-Lévesque Arena. Moncton lost its first two games.

“The practices this week were based on work ethics on the ice and on ways to elevate our calibre of play,” said Côté. “We have to play a full 60 minutes. We know the Reds have a very good goaltender and a very defensive squad. Offensively, we must find ways to pierce through their defensive teams. The Sunday game will not be easy against the Huskies; they have been at national championships the last three seasons. We are excited at playing two games in our nest this weekend. We are not happy with our performance in the first two games; we gave up too many goals. It will be different this time.”

Mélika Florent will be the goaltender on Saturday, and Audrey Berthiaume on Sunday.
