Team History
The Tri Pen Osprey franchise dates back to the beginning of AAA Midget hockey in the Province in 2002. They were known as the Tri Pen Frost from 2002 to 2010, then as the Tri Pen Lions until 2012. Since 2012, they've been known as the Tri Pen Osprey.
Tri Pen is the only current franchise not to have won a league playoff championship, but they came close, losing the 7th game of the 2019 final to the Western Kings.
The Osprey play out of the Danny Cleary Memorial Centre in Harbour Grace.
Franchise career scoring leaders are Nicholas Crosbie (86-22-79*-101*); Luke Akerman (92-54-45-99); Chris Reardon (83-37-62-99) and Andrew Sweetland (36-57*-38-95).
As always, if anybody can help fill in some of the missing coaching info for any U18 program, it would be much appreciated.
Note: Everywhere I can find (including the league website) shows the Osprey putting up identical records for the past two seasons in W-L- OL-Points and even in GF and GA. It's very rare to see something like that, so not sure if it might be a typo.
