Junior Extra: two crucial victories

Junior Extra: two crucial wins

BETTING À DAY

The Remparts have weathered the worst storm of their season, but they hope it is finally behind them. After losing five of their last seven games, Patrick Roy's men managed to win two very important victories against the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies, last Wednesday and Friday. Despite this slump, Quebec managed to retain first place in the overall QMJHL standings. With 97 points, they are tied with the Halifax Mooseheads, but have two more wins.

After having gone through a low period, like the team, the number 1 goalkeeper of the Remparts rebounded well at the end of last week. He allowed the Huskies just two goals in his two starts, maintaining a .946 save percentage in those two games.
