PREVIEW | OCTOBER 26 vs Trois Rivières

Newfoundland comes back to Trois-Rivières fresh off a 3-2 win away to the Adirondack Thunder at Cool Insuring Arena on Saturday night. The Lions last played on Friday evening at home losing 3-1 to this same Growlers team, a night after the visitors also came away with a 6-3 win in both teams’ first games of the season.

WHO TO WATCH: 

NFL - Noel Hoefenmayer (D): A former Arizona Coyotes draft pick (2017, 4th round) and standout offensive defenseman during his time with the OHL’s Ottawa 67’s, Hoefenmayer scored his first goal as a Growler last time out against Adirondack. With two points in his first three games with the team, the 22-year-old is proving a welcome addition to the backend in early days.

TR - Kevin Poulin (G): With 355 games played in 12 seasons as a pro, including 50 appearances in the NHL for the New York Islanders, Poulin is one of the most experienced netminders in the ECHL.
