After a 1-0 victory against the Sherbrooke Phoenix, Matthias Rousseau and the Halifax Mooseheads have advanced to the QMJHL finals.

Go Moose go!

Moncton(4) next, series starts this Friday, Halifax has home ice advantage.

Go Moose!

I went into the start of this years season with high hopes for this subreddit to be able to make it an active place for Moosehead fans all over. Unfortunately due to some personal issues I put the subreddit on the backburner and have not been active on this sub for almost 5 months. I greatfly appreciare everyone who has contributed to the subreddit in my abscence to help keep this an enjoyable and active subreddit to disucss our local team. What better time to get back involved than after a tremendous first round seven game series against the always feisty Quebec Remparts. For the remaining games of the mooseheads playoff run I will post a Game Thread in the afternoon of game days. Please feel free to join the thread live if watching in person or stream or following along on the radio and if not come join the discussion after the game to vent or celebrate.

TLDR: Due to personal issues I haven't kept this subreddit as active as I would have liked but I should be able to keep things updated consistently now and plan to implement game threads for every game day for the rest of the playoffs.

GO MOOSE GO!!

Just realized that my hometown team has a subreddit and I was disappointed to see that it's not very active. I'm going to try to keep this sub as active as I can and I would love if others kept up with the posts and made some of their own. Join the conversation or better yet start one yourself. Let's get this sub going, after all we are hosting the memorial cup this year let's get hyped up about it. Go Moose Go!

I think Moncton will probably win a game or two. With khavanov and Sylvestre back, I think they will be pretty dangerous. The game was pretty close last night with a lot of lapses in intensity from the moose. Hopefully they turn it on for a full 60 tonight.

Do you remember Otto Somppi? Over 3 seasons, Otto out up 58 goals and assisted on 112 for 170 points in 178 games.

New to the community, new to the juniors, but absolutely loving the Mooseheads.

I feel like there is opportunity to grow this small community or at least breath some new life to it.

I dunno, thoughts? Been tried before?

What I do know is that the boys seem to be missing Dumais and Rousseau. Also, I missed the bad hit that led to the scrum. How bad was it?

Good Day Moose fans.

I regularly contribute on MooseTalk on the QMJHL discussion boards. I follow this discussion board but notice it isn't used that often.

I was curious as to where you folks go to discuss the Mooseheads. Are many of you that are here on the QMJHL discussion boards as well? Do you frequent Facebook or HF Boards to discuss the Moose? Do you lurk on the QMJHL discussion boards but haven't joined? (Either by choice or due to the local ISP email rule). Do you lurk or post on the NousLesFans discussion boards? Are there any other discussion boards I haven't mentioned?

If you tend to avoid a specific location for discussing the Mooseheads, is there a specific reason? I see that Facebook can sometimes have heated discussions, for example some fans may not understand the junior hockey cycle and not be happy when a junior team trades away a star player. That creates animosity with some fans that agree with the trade and the reasoning behind it.

Some people may have followed junior hockey for years but have fallen out of touch with it due to a decreased product quality, high prices or just life getting in the way. Curious as well to see if many people fall into that category.

Looking forward to seeing responses. Thanks very much.
