More Mainland Cup matchups this weekend, kicked off first by a welcome return to the Train Station after a hefty early season road trip. The Express come home at 2-3-1 to take on the 6-0-0 Surrey Eagles. In what should be an excellent night at the Poirier, the Express host their annual Breast Cancer Awareness […]
Discipline goes a long way in the game of hockey, and tonight was no difference. The powerplay played a pivotal role on both sides with Coquitlam going 1 for 1, and the Victoria Grizzlies mustering a 3 for 4 effort. Those 3 special teams markers for the Grizzlies were too great a hole to dig […]
The island swing continues with the Express travelling further south along the east coast to find themselves at the Q this Saturday evening. Coquitlam certainly had the Grizzlies’ number last season going a perfect 4-0. With many changes on both sides this will be a very interesting early season showcase of what these sides have […]
Did anyone have 11 goals on their friday night BCHL bingo card? Cause if you did you’re in luck. The Cowichan Capitals and Coquitlam Express put on an offensive showcase in the land of the big hockey stick. Coquitlam tacked on 7 in the contest, which is impressive in its own right, but the speed […]
On the road again are the Coquitlam Express this weekend as they make their way over to Vancouver Island. Up first are the defenders of the large hockey stick, the Cowichan Valley Capitals. First meeting of the season for these two teams, with last campaign’s season series going 3-1 in favor of Coquitlam. Cowichan has […]
This one went the distance and then some as the Express come up just short in the shootout. The fans wouldn’t be sent home without some theatrics though. Down by 2 with 3 minutes to go Coquitlam pulls the goaltender and brings out the old double-edged sword, the extra attacker. As you’ve probably already inferred […]
The Tour de Lower Mainland continues this weekend as the Express roll into George Preston Arena this evening to take on the Rivermen. Awaiting Coquitlam is a Langley team that sits 1-2 after 3 very tight fought games so the record might be a little deceiving. 5-4L vs the chiefs on opening night and then […]
The Express depart the Train Station and roll on down the tracks this evening. First stop on the road trip? Chilliwack Coliseum for a 7pm date with the Chiefs. Coquitlam and Chilliwack are no strangers to one another. Each season they meet 8 times, which you would think is enough… Not even close. This rivalry […]
Unfortunately for the Express after game 2 at home, the monkey remains on their back. A 4-1 final score that feels like Deja Vu of the night before: several opportunities generated by controlling the flow of play but the opposing team’s goaltender wins the day as they get hot and stay hot throughout the night. […]
24 hours and we’re right back into it. The Express take to the ice tonight at 7 as they host their rivals from across the Fraser the Surrey Eagles. 8 times last season the two sides would do battle and the season series ended 6-2 in favor of the Eagles. Player to watch for the […]
