The Moncton Flyers look to increase their lead atop the NBPEI U18 AAA League standings with two home games this weekend.

The Flyers, who have 26 points in 17 games, take on the second place Charlottetown Knights (23 points in 16 games) on Saturday. Gametime is 7:30 pm.

On Sunday, the Flyers entertain the Saint John Vito's.  Gametime is 1 pm.

The Moncton Flyers defeated the Northern Moose 3 - 2 in a shootout on Sunday to cap a four-point weekend in the NBPEI U18 AAA League.  The Flyers needed a last minute goal by Néka Jean to tie the game and the Flyers prevailed in the shootout.

Liam Daigle scored in the first period to give the Flyers a 1 - 0 advantage but two goals in the second gave the Moose the lead entering the third, setting the stage for the late-game heroics.  Austin Sanchez and Jean scored in the shootout while Simon Cormier stopped both Moose attempts to add to the 23 shots he blocked in regulation.
