Seguin Bruins - History

History

The Bruins fill the void in Parry Sound left by the Parry Sound Shamrocks who folded in 2002.

The Bruins were below .500 in their first season, however they were able to make the playoffs where they lost in the conference quarter final to the eventual conference champion Stouffville Spirit.

The first game ever played with this team was an exhibition game against the North Bay Sky Hawks and the first goal was scored by Jason Tsang, who played that season with the Parry Sound Midget Shamrocks under coach Rick Thomas and Tim McWhirter where he was a defenseman and made his first All-Star appearance in Bracebridge. Seguin's first regular season game took place at home on September 11, 2005 against the Couchiching Terriers. The game ended up being a 6-5 loss for the Bruins. The first goal in regular season came half way through the first period on a powerplay scored by Gerald Bojanowki. Thomas Speer was the goaltender in the Bruins' first game. The Bruins' first win came on October 2, 2005 as a 5-0 shutout against the Collingwood Blues. Jonathan Porretta picked up both the franchise's first win and shutout in net stopping all 33 shots.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    When the history of guilt is written, parents who refuse their children money will be right up there in the Top Ten.
    Erma Brombeck (20th century)

    One classic American landscape haunts all of American literature. It is a picture of Eden, perceived at the instant of history when corruption has just begun to set in. The serpent has shown his scaly head in the undergrowth. The apple gleams on the tree. The old drama of the Fall is ready to start all over again.
    Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)

    ... the history of the race, from infancy through its stages of barbarism, heathenism, civilization, and Christianity, is a process of suffering, as the lower principles of humanity are gradually subjected to the higher.
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
