One last skate before we hit the road to Christchurch.
The power might have gone out, but that didn’t stop us. We got the work done, the energy stayed high, and we’re ready for another big battle against the Inferno this weekend.

GAME STAR ⭐️
A huge weekend between the pipes for Jordan Wichman, earning Game Star honours for both games after helping secure our first win of the season against Dunedin.
Jordan was a wall all weekend long, making key saves when it mattered most and giving the team every chance to compete right to the final buzzer.
Well deserved, Jordan Wichman
