Just 24 hours after a trio of rookies sparked the Laval Rocket to a come-from-behind victory over the Cleveland Monsters, the two teams met once again to close out the two-game series.
After coming in to relieve Charlie Lindgren on Thursday, Michael McNiven got the start in net for Joël Bouchard. Also of note was that after a two-goal outing, and his best game so far this year, Hayden Verbeek was promoted to the top-line centre role, between Daniel Audette and Alexandre Grenier.
It was not a high-energy period for either side, with just eight total shots between then in the opening 20 minutes.
