Written by Nick Murdocco. Posted in Blogs - Nick Murdocco

Montreal, February 26th, 2009 – A very confident Montreal Juniors faced off against the Gatineau Olympics today, after winning their previous game 9-7 in Lewiston but it was the Olympics who got the last word with the 2-1 win.

Read on for the official Juniors' game recap.

The first face off was not successful for either sides. It is early into the second period that Montreal’s Louis-Marc Aubry scored his 14th goal of the season giving his team a lead in the game.  In the third period, Adam Janosik gave his team a little hope when he scored with less than three minutes in the game. It is only in the eighth round of shootouts that Jean-Gabriel Pageau scored the winning goal. 

Juniors’ goalie Jean-Francois Bérubé, saved 19 goals on 20 shots, while Olympiques’ Maxime Clermont made 38 saves on 39 shots. 

Up next is a busy weekend for our Juniors who are back on the road towards Shawinigan’s Bionest Center in the hope to beat the Cataractes tomorrow at 16:00. The Montreal juniors won’t rest for long since they will then be on their way to Drummondville to face off the Voltigeurs, also at 16:00. Our team will be back home March 4th to host the Olympiques for one last time before the playoffs.
