[edit] History

The team is also known to draw some of the largest crowds in the Maritime Junior A Hockey League, and have placed 2nd in average attendance the last few years, only behind the Weeks Crushers.

The Mariners hosted the 2005 Fred Page Cup, but they lost in the final.

During the 2006-2007 season, the Mariners have had a sluggish start in which they have won 6 & lost 10, but recent spirited performances have recharged the team as they try to climb from the MJAHL's Bent Division basement.
