-- Q League Hockey: Moncton Wildcats beat Charlottetown last night at Avenir Centre. Final score was Cats 5, Islanders 2 . Cats play again Saturday at 4pm for a ❄️WHITEOUT❄️ Game (wear white!)
Note from Scotty to Wildcats: the first one through the doors on Saturday should get a free container of 'Wite-Out'. Call me, Wildcats Promotional Team I got a million ideas!  
BTW, the Cats posted this on social media: "Due to high ticket demand, we will be opening seats in the bottom half of Sections 110 & 111 for the 4pm game vs Quebec." Expect a good crowd on Saturday.
