Alain's goal:

 

[Adam Michaels]

Good shift by the Evans line followed up by Barber racing and cancelling an icing call. He sets up Folin for another one-timer but Condon gloves it.

Lynch's goal:

 

[Adam Michaels]

Laval heading to the PP.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Wow! What a save by Condon. A beautiful cross-ice pass by Barber to Hudon, who one-times it. It's going in, but Condon with a real nice save.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Laval heading back to the PP with 2:30 left in the second period.

 

[Scriptor]

Completely agree and I see it the same way. I really like him and he does have skill mixed with grit and brings size. I was very disappointed when he got hurt and even more when they said he'd need about 7-8 months of recovery. I really looked forward to seeing him

What was the injury exactly? 7-8 months seems like a major injury.

 

[Adam Michaels]

What was the injury exactly? 7-8 months seems like a major injury.

He tore ligaments in both the MCL and ACL. Off-season training in August.

 

[Adam Michaels]

GOAL! Hudon makes it 5-3 on the PP!

He got robbed by Condon earlier, but he made it count this time.

Evans and Ouellet with the assists.

 

[ahmedou]

Good one. I felt that on how they went full offense without stopping.

 

[Adam Michaels]

5-3 after 2 periods.

The second period was a lot better than the first.

 

[Adam Michaels]

If Laval can win this one in regulation, they will move 7 points ahead of Syracuse. Laval is 5th and Syracuse is behind them in 6th. Syracuse have two games in hand. But if Laval doe end up 7 points ahead, even Syracuse wins those two games in hand, they will still be behind Laval in the standings.

 

[montreal]

crazy game but I'm sure Bouchard won't be thrilled with those defensive breakdowns mainly in the 1st.

Was glad to see Hudon get one past Condon who was playing well since coming in cold.

Condon knows. I thought he was in the NHL as a backup but haven't been following him clearly.

I saw him in a preseason game last year and I just seemed to notice him, I liked him in the memcup as well. Gutsy player with some upside.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Very important third period coming up for Laval. They need to protect the lead.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Hudon's PP goal from earlier:

 

[Adam Michaels]

Cox and Alain on a 2-on-1. Cox tries to pass it to Alain but it was easily read by the defensemen who dove and blocked the pass. Cox should have shot it there or saucer it to Alain.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Hope he'll be okay:

 

[Adam Michaels]

Syracyse makes it 5-4 with 10:30 left in the game.

A shame as Laval has been doing a real good job shutting Syracuse down so far.

[Adam Michaels]

GOAL! Hudon makes it 6-4 with 6 minutes left.

Evans with the assist.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Condon pulled for the extra attacker.

 

[Adam Michaels]

GOAL! Alzner with the empty-netter to make it 7-4!

He just cleared it out of the zone and the puck was bouncing. It ended up rolling slowly into the net.

 

[AntiCHrice]

I never thought I'd see the day where both Folin and Alzner score in the same game
