October to Benefit the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network

The New England Wolves are proud to announce, in conjunction with the Boucher Family, the month of October as Pancreatic Cancer Pledge Month!

Robert Boucher and his son, Sam, are members of the New England Wolves this year. Lena Boucher, Robert's wife and Sam's mom, died from pancreatic cancer in 2019. That year, Robert and Sam ran a fundraiser with Sam's California hockey team that raised over $11,000 for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN).

The Wolves have agreed to step up and support a similar PanCAN fundraiser, based on the performance of the Wolves' EHLP team in the month of October. You can pledge in one or more of six categories (shown below) or make a flat donation. We'll use the official scoresheet from each game for all statistics.

In October, the Wolves EHLP will have 10 league games. The amount that you pledge will be multiplied by the number of times that event occurs, e.g. if they score 60 goals in October, I'll multiply your "Goals Scored" pledge by 60. After the last game in October, I will email you a summary of your pledges and information on how to donate directly to PanCAN. You can download a donation receipt from them.

If you would like to make a "flat" donation (not tied to the team's performance), please visit:

If you have any questions, or would like to donate based on some other statistic, please email Robert Boucher at robert@webmstr.com  

For information on the Wolves email- Andrew Trimble- scoringconcepts@gmail.com

All the information you provide on this form will only be used for this fundraising drive.

About 60,000 people will be diagnosed every year, and only about 10% of them will live more than 5 years after diagnosis.  PanCAN's mission is "to take bold action to improve the lives of everyone impacted by pancreatic cancer by advancing scientific research, building community, sharing knowledge and advocating for patients."
