The Laval Rocket are limping to the end of their hectic March schedule after a disastrous weekend against Charlotte and Belleville, when they lost all three games they played. The Rocket added a few new faces to their lineup ahead of the clash with the Marlies, signing Adam Plant to an AHL deal for next year and a PTO for the remainder of this year. Also new was Bailey Webster, who was a teammate of Simon Bourque in Saint John with the Sea Dogs.
Prior to the game, Chris Terry sat just one point off the AHL scoring lead, and had been red-hot of late.
