The James M Hill Tommies will celebrate its 28th year hosting this year’s Green and Gold Tournament. The Tournament opens on Thursday Dec. 6th and runs through to Sunday Dec. 9th. Eight teams will participate in a two division format with all games to be played at the Lord Beaverbrook Arena.
The Green Division will feature the James M Hill Tommies, Miramichi Valley Pulamoo, Tantramar Titans and Kennebecassis Valley Crusaders.
The Gold Division participants are Harrison Trimble Trojans, Hampton Huskies, Bernice MacNaughton Highlanders and Aux Quatre Vents Cyclones
The Tommies have struggled out of the gate this season, dropping their first four league games, and finishing with a 0-2-1 record in the Miramichi Valley Classic.
They return eleven players from last year’s roster, including their entire defence corps. The team will look to returnees Matt Losier and Jeremy White to lead their offence, while Logan Craik and Chris McCormack will split the goaltending chores. Rookie Cole Duffy is off to a hot start for the Tommies, leading the team is scoring with 12 points in his first 9 games.
