Rumours of their demise have finally come true, and the Alberta Junior Hockey League’s Calgary Mustangs are relocating, the league announced Wednesday. “I am very excited for the opportunity to bring a Junior A team to Blackfalds,” Quinn, who will serve as the team’s first head coach, said in a statement. The town of Blackfalds recently announced a fast-tracked $20-million plan to expand its Multi-Plex arena, expected to start next spring. Junior hockey struggles aren’t new to clubs across the province. In April, the team announced a slate of 12 board members, including eight returning directors.
