October 11, 2025 vs. North Shore White Caps
The Belleville Integrative Health Centre U10 AAA Quinte Red Devils opened their season with a **big win** on the road in Oshawa facing the North Shore Whitecaps.
After killing off early penalties, the boys struck first with a **shorthanded goal**, then added another to lead 2-0 after the first period.
The Red Devils came out flying in the second — sharp passing, great teamwork, and relentless pressure led to two more goals and a **4–0 lead** before North Shore pushed back to make it 5–3 heading into the third.
The intensity ramped up in the third as both teams battled hard for every inch of ice. North Shore struck early to make it **5–4**, but the Devils answered with gritty play around the crease to regain a two-goal cushion at **6–4**. A penalty in Quinte's defensive zone gave North Shore a power-play chance, and they made it count, closing the gap to **6–5** with six minutes remaining. The Red Devils stayed calm under pressure, regrouped, and fired back with another key goal to make it **7–5**. The final frame was full of action as both teams battled hard. Quinte stayed composed and pulled away late with strong forechecking and smart defensive play — capping it off with an **empty-netter and a final buzzer-beater** for a 10–5 victory.
Amazing team effort all around, plenty of energy and grit to kick off the season! Way to go, Devils!
**Final: Quinte Red Devils 10 – North Shore Whitecaps 5**
