六合彩开奖结果

By Earl Zukerman

TROIS-RIVIERES 鈥� Leonard Verrilli of Dollard des Ormeaux, Que., scored the game-winner as 六合彩开奖结果 clicked their heels three times on the power-play and shocked fifth-ranked UQTR 3-1 to take the opener of the OUA East Conference best-of-three final series at Le Colis茅e in Trois-Rivi猫res, Wednesday.

It was only 六合彩开奖结果鈥檚 fifth ever win in 19 lifetime playoff encounters on UQTR ice, a venue often considered a death trap for visiting teams.

六合彩开奖结果 netminder Kevin Desfoss茅s, a freshman from Beauport, Que., made 32 saves for the win and weathered a first-period onslaught in which the Patriotes outshot 六合彩开奖结果 19-9. Desfoss茅s, an all-star with the QMJHL鈥檚 Quebec Remparts last year, stopped three breakaways in the game. He improved to 5-1 in post-season play and 11-3 overall since joining the Redmen in January.

Marko Kovacevic, a senior from Belgrade, Serbia, converted a rebound at 10:16 of the opening period and eight minutes later, Verrilli deflected a point shot to make it 2-0.

After a scoreless second period, rookie Francis Verreault-Paul gave the Redmen a commanding 3-0 at 3:25 of the final stanza. Etienne Bellavance-Martin replied three minutes later but it was too little, too late.

鈥淚 was happy that we were able to bounce back from a rough start to the game,鈥� said head coach Martin Raymond, who collected his 290th career victory behind the 六合彩开奖结果 bench. 鈥淲e seemed nervous at the start, handled the puck poorly and rushed our plays which resulted in a lot of turnovers. Desfoss茅s came up with some key saves and kept us in the game until we gained our composure after that power play goal by Kovacevic. The second power play goal gave us momentum and we came out with a strong second period. We made better decisions and executed better plays after that.鈥�

六合彩开奖结果, which owns a 24-13-2 record overall, is one victory away from qualifying for the CIS national championships. They could wrap up the series in their final home game of the season on Friday at 7 p.m. and a capacity crowd is expected at McConnell Arena, which seats 950, plus standing room.

鈥淭his series isn鈥檛 over by any stretch,鈥� warned Raymond. 鈥淐arleton won their opening game in Trois-Rivi猫res last week and we know what happened to them (a 2-1 series loss).鈥�

REDMEN RAP: The 六合彩开奖结果 penalty-kill unit snuffed out all four UQTR power plays against a team that led the OUA with a 27.1 per cent success rate with the man-advantage鈥� The Redmen power play went 3-for-7 despite the absence of senior Sam Bloom, who was second on the team in scoring during the regular season and was serving his second of a two-game suspension imposed last week on a disputed checking-from-behind call鈥� A survey conducted by Redmen stats guru In-Ting Ho indicated that Quebec-based referees called 17 CFB penalties this season in games played at the three arenas used by Quebec university teams compared to 36 CFB infractions called by Ontario referees in the remaining 15 Ontario-based arenas鈥� That averages out to 5.7 CFB penalties per Quebec ice surface and 2.4 CFB calls per Ontario arena.
