The Q's Best Team Bests the Juniors 4-2
The Montreal Juniors continued their road swing as they visited Saint John NB and faced the top-ranked Sea Dogs. The score was kept close, but in the end, it was the Sea Dogs who came out on top by the score of 4 to 2.
With only three minutes gone in the first, the Sea Dogs got on the board first when Tomas Jurco tallied his thirteenth of the season on the power play. The Juniors tied it up on David Rose’s first of season at 6:15 from Jeremy Gouchie and Nicolas Chouinard.
Louis-Marc Aubry gave the Juniors the lead when he put the puck past Karel St-Laurent for his eighth of the season just a minute into the second from defenseman Xavier Ouellet and forward Guillaume Asselin. Goals from Penguins prospect Nicolas Petersen and Mike Thomas gave Saint John the lead before the end of the second.
Michael Kirkpatrick would extend the Sea Dogs lead to two goals on the power play at 13:06 of the third to seal the Juniors’ fate.
Montreal’s newly anointed #1 net-minder Jean-Francois Berube made 23/27 saves in the loss.
Montreal, now with a record of 20-19-0-3 will play the l’Acadie Bathurst Titans on the 10th and then end this five-game road swing in Rimouski when they face the Oceanic on the 15th. Their next home game is Sunday, January 17th, when they host the Victoriaville Tigers at 4:05PM.
