Prior to their home tilt Jan. 21 against the Lindsay Muskies, the Haliburton County Huskies held a pre-game presentation in honour of goaltender Aidan Spooner.

The 20-year-old was named OJHL Warrior Goaltender of the Month for December after leading his team to a perfect 5-0 winning run.

He posted a 0.80 goals against average, .971 save percentage and two shutouts in wins over the Cobourg Cougars, Toronto Patriots, St. Michael’s Buzzers, Mississauga Steelers and Aurora Tigers.

Statistically, he ranks as the third best goaltender in the league this season, behind James Norton (Toronto Jr. Canadiens) and Reece Proulx (Pickering Panthers). Chris Vanstone,

OJHL director of operations, shakes hands with Aidan Spooner as Huskies head coach and general manager Ryan Ramsay watches on.
