History edit
The Mount Pearl Samurai were granted expansion into the Avalon East Senior Hockey League in the fall of 2012.[3] The addition of the Samurai coincided with the hiatus of the Mount Pearl Blades of the Newfoundland Senior Hockey League, who are sitting out 2012-13 if not indefinitely.[4]
On October 26, 2012, the Samurai played their first ever game, dropping a 10-2 decision to the Northeast Eagles on the road.[5] On November 2, 2012, the Samurai played their first ever home game, losing 4–3 to the St. John's Caps.[6] The Samurai's first ever victory came on November 10, 2012, a 6–1 win over the Bell Island Blues at home.[7]
