The Milton Menace are on the road Friday, January 20th as they look to get a win back.
The last time fans saw the Menace on the ice, they lost 3-1 to the Markham Royals at home on Tuesday, January 17th. Read that recap here. They now head south to take on the Oakville Blades, who they beat 3-2 in their last matchup in December.
The Milton Menace are 23-11-1-2, remaining at 49-points on the season. They are in fourth place of the Ontario Junior Hockey League’s North/West Conference, up two points over the Pickering Panthers with two games in hand. A lot of the success of the Menace comes from their three all-stars: Aidan Hughes, Lucas Buzziol, and Captain Owen Forester. Hughes leads the way with 24-goals and 36-assists in 37-games played. You can check out the team’s player stats here.
The Oakville Blades are having a rough season this year. In 36-games, they are 10-24-1-1 with 22-points this season. That puts them at ninth in the North/West Conference, up ten points on the last place Brantford 99ers (which tells you how bad THAT team is doing). Their leading scorer is Matthew Wang, who has 16-goals and 15-assists in 34-games. Get their player stats here.
Friday’s game will be at the Sixteen Mile Sports Centre. Game-time is slated for 7:00 p.m.
The Menace will then play the Collingwood Blues on Saturday, January 21st. Puck-drop at the Eddie Bush Arena is set for 5:30 p.m.
