Trappers humbled in the Soo

The North Bay Trappers continue to struggle as they dropped a 6-1 decision to the Sault Ste. Marie North Stars on Saturday and followed up with a 8-1 blowout loss to the North Stars on Saturday afternoon.

David Quesnele had two goals and an assist for the Stars in Sunday's 8-1 outcome. Ryan Leckie scored the only goal for the Trappers.

Zac LaRue scored twice to lead the North Stars offensive attack in Saturday's 6-1 victory. Pascal Seguin had the only goal for the Trappers.

With the pair of Trapper losses the Nickel City Sons were able to climb into a third place tie with the Trappers in the Great North Midget League. Both team's share the spot with 14 points on the season.

It's been a tough couple of weekends for the Trappers as they won only one of their four games the weekend before at Sudbury's Big Nickel Tournament.

The Trappers are back on the ice for a rare mid-week game in Sudbury as they visit the Nickel Capital Wolves on Wednesday night.

The Trappers return to the friendly confines of West Ferris arena Sunday as they take on the Nickel City Sons. Game time is 1:20 p.m.
