Two goals in 50 seconds allowed the Laval Rocket to force overtime, but they ultimately came up short as they lost 6-5 to the Rochester Americans on Saturday afternoon at Place Bell in Laval.
“It was a weird game,” said Rocket head coach Jean-François Houle. “There was a part of our game I didn’t like as much. Defensively, you can’t give up five goals and expect to win the game. You need to play better defensively. We showed some character again, we came back from behind, but when you come back and still lose the game it’s disappointing.
