October Recap

Moira Bryan

The Wolves opened their season on a high note, going 7-0 in October to go undefeated throughout the whole month! They took a couple of bus trips and also established themselves at home, and a handful of rookies were able to get on the scoresheet for their first AJFHL goals!

#10 Brigitte Hetu

The Wolves took to the ice for their home opener against the Sherwood Park Steele on Sunday Oct. 1. The Wolves opened the scoring quickly in the first period with a rocket from #10 Brigitte Hetu to put them up 1-0. Just a minute into the second period, #3 Ainsley McCoy Birk potted another for the Wolves to increase their lead. But the Steele would answer back later in the period with a power play goal to cut the Wolves' lead in half. Both teams battled hard through the third period but both goaltenders closed the doors and the final score remained 2-1 for the Wolves! #29 Havana Batke stopped 17 of 18 shots for her first AJFHL win!

#4 Nicole Thomas

Next weekend on Saturday, Oct. 7, the Wolves hopped on the bus and headed down to Penhold to take on the Central Alberta Amazons. The Wolves were on the hunt for some redemption after the Amazons knocked them out of playoffs last year in the first round. Late in the first period, the Amazons scored to take the lead 1-0. Both teams battled hard through the second period but the score remained in the Amazons favour after two periods of play. The Wolves came out hard in the third and were able to get on the board less than a minute into the period with a goal from #13 Nicole Thomas. Later in the period, #22 Brenna Reid and #19 Natalie Buttle both scored their first AJFHL goals, with Buttle's coming on the power play! N. Thomas then scored again on the power play, and again later in the period for her first AJFHL hattrick! Buttle went on to score again on the power play with less than a minute left in the game. #31 Paige Thomas stopped 16 of 17 shots to give the Wolves a 6-1 win!

#22 Brenna Reid

On Sunday, Oct. 8, the Wolves hosted the Calgary Titans at home. Later in the first period, the Wolves opened the scoring with a power play goal from #25 Madeline Butterfield, her first AJFHL goal! Less than thirty seconds later, #4 Rory Bothwell potted another to give the Wolves a 2-0 lead after the first. Buttle opened the scoring in the second with a goal less than thirty seconds into the period. Later in the period, N. Thomas scored to put the Wolves up by four heading into the final frame. The Titans were able to get on the scoresheet with a goal early in the third period, but the Wolves answered back with a power play goal from #21 Alexandra Black, her first AJFHL goal! Batke turned away 14 of 15 shots to help the Wolves win 5-1!

#21 Alexandra Black

Next weekend on Sunday, Oct. 15, the Wolves hosted the Foothills Storm at home. Halfway through the first period Reid scored to put the Wolves on the board. Later in the period, Hetu scored to put the Wolves up by two after the first. Less than two minutes into the second period, #15 Tyra Anderson potted another for the Wolves. Both teams battled hard until midway through the third period, when Bothwell scored the fourth and final goal. Batke saved all 31 shots that she stopped for her first AJFHL shutout, and to get the Wolves the 4-0 win!

#4 Rory Bothwell

On Saturday, Oct. 21, the Wolves hosted the Fort Saskatchewan Fury. Later in the first period, Bothwell opened the scoring with not one, but two back-to-back goals only fifteen seconds apart! Just twenty seconds into the second period, #7 Nayha Johal scored a power play goal to put the Wolves up by three. Later in the period, Anderson scored to increase the Wolves' lead. With less than three minutes left in the second period, the Fury put the puck past netminder Batke to make the score 4-1 heading into the third period. Reid increased the Wolves' lead with a goal just five minutes into the final frame. With less than a minute left in the game, Bothwell scored her third goal of the game for her first AJFHL hattrick! Batke turned away 26 of the 27 shots that she faced to help the Wolves win 6-1!

#31 Paige Thomas

The next day on Sunday, Oct. 22, the Wolves hosted the Amazons at home for their annual pink in the rink game. The team all wore pink to the game in support of breast cancer awareness, as well as wearing pink laces and taping their sticks pink. The Wolves opened the scoring quickly when #27 Megan Tipton put the puck past the Amazons goaltender for her first AJFHL goal! Buttle potted another for the Wolves just a couple of minutes later, and another goal came from Bothwell before the period was over to put the Wolves up 3-0 after the opening frame. Both teams battled hard through the second period, and with less than a minute left, Buttle scored another goal. Later third period, Butterfield scored on the power play. P. Thomas saved all 15 shots she faced for a shutout, and to give the Wolves the 5-0 win!

#19 Natalie Buttle

On Saturday, Oct. 28, the Wolves headed to Calgary to face off against the Titans. The Wolves opened the scoring in the first period with a goal from Hetu. In the second period, Reid put the Wolves up by two with a goal on the power play. Less than a minute into the third period, Bothwell scored to extend the Wolves' lead, and then she scored another at the midway mark of the third period. The Titans were finally able to get on the board with a power play goal late in the third period. P. Thomas turned aside 15 of the 16 shots she faced to help the Wolves win 4-1!

#27 Megan Tipton

The Wolves are looking to continue their undefeated season into November, but they have a tough weekend coming up as they head to Lethbridge to take on the Eagles for two back-to-back games on Saturday, Nov. 4 and Sunday, Nov. 5. We were happy to see many players establish some firsts in October, and can't wait for many more to come! The Wolves will be in Lethbridge this weekend, but they'll be back in Edmonton area next weekend with a game in Ardrossan vs. Steele on Friday Nov. 10, and in Fort Saskatchewan vs. Fury on Nov. 12, with their first home game of the month being on Saturday, Nov. 18 vs. Steele. We hope to see you there!
