The Huskies battled to a weekend series split in Troy, NY versus CD Selects to open up the EJHL January schedule. Both teams swapped comebacks to secure wins on the weekend.

In Saturday’s game the Huskies fought back from a three goal third period deficit to win 4-3 on the wave of 2 power play goals and a short handed tally. Chris Cyr sealed it with 2:52 left in the third period on the PP.
Mike Cifelli, Matt Lemire and Kyle Schultz also scored in the comeback. Huck Saunders and Whitney Olsen had strong games as well. Nico Candlemo came on in relief to earn the win in the nets. The Huskies poured 63 shots on the Selects net.
In the rematch Sunday the Huskies held a 1-0 lead after the first period, but it was all CD after that en-route to a 7-3 win at RPI. Huskies goal scorers were Brendan McCarron, Mike Cifelli and Tom Kimmel all on the power play. Whitney Olsen picked up three assists playing the point.
The Huskies are back in action Friday night at Skate 3 Arena 8pm against North Division rival Valley Warriors.
