Atom AE wins Montreal Can/Am Tournament!
The Oshawa Minor Generals ATOM AE Team travelled to Montreal, Quebec on November 4th to 6th to participate in the Can/Am Hockey Youth Challenge Cup, with hopes riding high after some recent solid efforts in their last few league games.



 
Friday morning started with a great effort against a hard skating Toronto team which ended in a 7 - 0 Oshawa victory.  On Friday afternoon, Oshawa faced a physical Newmarket Redmen team and came up just short, losing by a score of 2 to 1.  Saturday had Oshawa playing the Markham Waxers, where a win was necessary to get them into the gold medal championship.  The ATOM AE team came from behind to earn a hard fought 3-2 victory to move on to the gold medal game on Sunday - and a rematch with Newmarket.
 
In front of very loud and supportive (and nervous) family and friends, Oshawa came out against Newmarket with some of its best energy all season.  First behind 1 to 0, and later 2 to 1, Oshawa scored two goals in the third period and held on to capture the tournament championship.  Thanks to the team’s spectacular goaltending, shut down defence, and timely goals from its hard working group of forwards, Oshawa Minor ATOM AE brought home the championship plaque.  

A proud coaching staff thanks the boys for all their hard work, and the super fans for all their support. A great weekend for the team!
