Rangers Capture NDHL A Championship
After a nail-biting Game 3 against a very game NOTL squad, the young and hungry Rangers emerged victorious and were crowned the NDHL A Division Atom Champions.
It was a hard fought series, with only 2 goals separating the 2 teams. Game 1 saw the Rangers walk away with an 8-4 win. Game 2 was a different story. With the game tied 1-1 with 7mins remaining, NOTL took over and left with a 4-1 victory, setting up a decisive Game 3. The Rangers took a 2-0 lead, with both goals coming off the stick of Brett MacQueen. And based on a great game from goalie, Lucas Cunningham, and a total team defensive effort, held on for a 2-1 victory.
This wraps up a great season for the Rangers after also capturing the Stoney Creek Tournament Championship. There was no quit in these boys throughout the season. As there will be many unknowns going into next season, our mantra for the playoffs was to "Play for Each Other". It was a great way to end our tenure as Rangers, and ensures that this team will be one of the final Ranger teams to ever win an NDHL Title. Thank you to all of our coaches, managers, sponsors, and instructors that helped our boys throughout the season. We share this with you.
