Date: Feb 13, 2012
HUNTSVILLE, AL – Huntsville Havoc head coach, Randy Murphy, announced today that the team has activated goaltender Mark Sibbald from the team suspension list and placed goaltender Matt Hache on waivers.
“We are extremely excited to have Mark back,” Murphy said. “We are hoping he will pick up right where he left off and we expect he and (Kevin) Beech to bring some stability to our play in net.”
