Special Remembrance Day game began with a ceremony to remember the fallen
Once the puck dropped, Friday’s Sudbury Wolves game against the Guelph Storm was all about hockey, but prior to that it was all about remembrance.
Dan Draper, the area administrator for the UN/NATO Veterans of Canada, led the ceremony. Afghan War veteran Randy Desarmeau recited John McRae’s poem “In Flanders Fields”, while Chris Peters, the service officer with Branch 564, delivered the Act of Remembrance. On their own power play, the Storm would get one back with two minutes to go in the first when Valentin Zhugin picked up his fourth of the season to make it 2-1 for Sudbury.
