Laval Rocket 4, Hartford Wolf Pack 1

Laval, Quebec, October 30, 2019 – The Laval Rocket scored three third-period goals Wednesday night at Place Bell, to hand the Hartford Wolf Pack its first regulation loss of the season, 4-1, in the first of two games this week between the two teams in Laval.

The Wolf Pack had been 8-0-0-1 previously on the year, one point short of the best nine-game start in franchise history.

Hartford outshot Laval 9-4 in the third, and had three power plays in the period, but unassisted goals by Alexandre Alain and Charles Hudon 1:11 apart broke a 1-1 tie, and Nikita Jevpalovs iced the game with an empty-net goal.
