Strong Start to the Season
Monday October 13th, 2025

Be careful if you're going through the quad to the gymnasium - because the U12 AA Aces are streaking to start the season!


Coming off of their 6-2 win against the St. Lawrence Steel in Potsdam NY on Thanksgiving Sunday, the U12 Aces have started the 2025-26 campaign 4-0. The team is finding their form and style, playing a hard forechecking solid defensive game that relies on relentless offensive zone pressure, defensemen holding the blue line aggressively and very strong duo between the pipes. 

There are contributions up and down the lineup but a special shout-out to the Petawawa Pals & Parker (still workshopping the name). Grayson Humber and Leo MacKinnon are having great starts to their Aces careers and the two of them have found fast chemistry with their linemate Parker Kuehl. This line has combined for 10 goals and 7 assists through 4 games - absolutely electric!

The bench staff led by head coach Rick Crout have been keeping the boys focused to start the season. It's a long road ahead but so far so good for these Aces.
