Joël Bouchard needs Rocket players to get “their heads in it”

It’s already the end of the first weekend of the Laval Rocket’s season, and head coach Joël Bouchard is not a happy camper.

“I think when the guys come here and they play, and you realize the state they’re in, in that moment you realize that half the team doesn’t have their heads in it. It’s obvious,” Bouchard said.

The Laval Rocket (0-2-0-0) lost 4-1 to the Cleveland Monsters (2-0-0-0) Saturday afternoon at Place Bell. Laval found themselves down 2-0 after 40 minutes of play thanks to goals from Eric Robinson and Zac Dalpe.
