BROOKFIELD: The East Hants Bitar’s Ristorante Penguins scored seven unanswered goals en route to a convincing victory on Saturday in Brookfield.
A night after their 15 game winning streak was snapped, the Pens started what might be a new one with the 7-1 win over Brookfield Elks in NSJHL play.
The Elks opened the scoring, but then it was all East Hants the rest of the way to the final buzzer.
