Coming off a disappointing pair of losses to the Hershey Bears and the Toronto Marlies, the Laval Rocket looked to find some positives to end their season. Charlie Lindgren was on emergency recall to Montreal, meaning Michael McNiven and Zachary Fucale would be handling the goaltending duties this weekend. For the Rocket, they finally got a bit of good news as leading scorer Chris Terry returned to the lineup after an absence due to an injury.
Friday: W 5-2 vs. Utica
The net on Friday night belonged to the rookie McNiven, while opposite of him was the highly touted Thatcher Demko for the Comets; a true battle between impressive young goaltenders.
