Rimouski unable to answer goaltending question, falls to 0-2 in the tournament.
The game, a 7-3 rout by the Kelowna Rockets, was won by early chances. Even though it was played in the Rimouski Oceanic's home arena, the team never got a chance to rally their fans behind them. The arena was silenced almost immediately by the visiting Rockets at the 53rd second of the game, when Nick Merkley scored his first of two. As Jeff Marek pointed out, Merkley is draft eligible this year, and carried some of Kelowna's fire tonight.
