LANTZ:<\/strong> Blake Irvine scored twice as the East Hants Bitars Ristorante Junior Penguins won their final home game of 2023 over their NSJHL rivals Brookfield Elks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NSJHL game was played on a night where the Pens collected food donations for the Caring & Sharing Angel Food Bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It took place at the Keith Miller Arena in the East Hants Sportsplex in Lantz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In total, the team, thanks to its fans, collected more than 12 bags of food for the food bank to help families in the East Hants community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Devin Meagher and Noah Comeau had a goal and an assist to help the offence for the Pens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the first period, East Hants dominated in the shot department and came away with a 2-0 lead thanks to a last minute goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If not for the goaltending from Brookfield Elks goalie Pablo De Larrinaga the score would have easily been much higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
