Bilodeau turns away 28 shots for Shut-Out

The Liverpool Privateers and the Membertou Jr. Miners will not have to wait long to play their second game of the season against each other and it should be a dandy after both teams opened their 2021-2022 Nova Scotia Junior Hockey League Season in Membertou Saturday night with the Privateers winning 4-0.

Next Saturday's Oct 9 game will be at the Emera Centre in Queens County at 7:00 p.m.

Eric Bilodeau recorded the shut-out for Liverpool turning away all 28 shots he faced while Daniel Kline was in the right spot at the right time, all the time as he scored 3 times and added an assist.  Kline's first two goals came with less than four minutes remaining in the opening period.  There was no scoring in the second but Kline set-up Alec Howie for Liverpool's third goal with 5:07 having elapsed in the third period.  Kline concluded his hat-trick performance with Liverpool's final goal coming with under seven minutes to play in the contest.

The Privateers will conclude their weekend opening trip to Cape Breton Sunday afternoon when they take on the Eskasoni Jr. Eagles at the Dan K. Stevens arena.
