February 22 vs. Whitby Wildcats
Snow Delays Opener-Tough Loss in Playoff Debut
The playoff run for the BIHC U10 Quinte Red Devils began with an unexpected pause, as winter weather forced the cancellation of Friday’s scheduled matchup against the North Central Predators due to snow and ice.
With their opener postponed, the Red Devils regrouped and refocused for a Sunday showdown against the Whitby Wildcats-always a highly anticipated battle between the league’s top two ranked teams.
The game featured fast-paced, end-to-end action and a high level of intensity from puck drop. Quinte battled hard, holding the score at 2–1 through much of the contest. Despite a determined team effort and a strong performance between the pipes, Whitby managed to pull ahead, securing a 4–1 victory.
It’s back to the drawing board as QRD prepares for Playoff Game #2 on Thursday, February 26 at 6:00 PM against the North Shore Whitecaps at Darlington Arena.
