Blacks Harbour, NB - The Milltown Moose have made franchise history and advanced to the FIHL finals by eliminating the reigning champs Fundy Kingfishers 8-4 Sunday night. The under-staffed Kingfishers fell victim to the relentless checking of the Moose who also managed to shut down the long stretch passes that has long been a hallmark of the Kingfishers.

The Moose will now face the St. George XXX in a best of five that gets under way Tuesday night at the Fundy Arena at 7:40 and onto St. Andrews Thursday night for an 8:30 start.

Moose goalie JJ Hyslop and series MVP summed it up best by saying, "If you wanna be the man, ya gotta beat the man."
