SERIES
Halifax leads the best-of-seven series 1-0

PREVIEW - Rouyn-Noranda looks to tie the series after scaring the Moose faithful on Saturday night.

Halifax was put to a much tougher test last night when the Huskies scored at 1:26 of the third period to tie up Game 1 twice. After the Mooseheads scored the first two goals in the first 11 minutes, the Huskies scored goals in the last minute and the first minute of the second. Halifax than scored another two, including one on a penalty shot. The Herd were able to put it away though after Rouyn tied it at four when Jonathan Drouin scored at 8:58 and Nathan MacKinnon scored an empty net goal.

Both teams top lines had big nights as Drouin recorded five points, Nathan scored a hat trick and had a assist while Sven Andrighetto added to his league leading points by scoring a goal and assisting on 2 others. Nikita Kucherov also had 3 points for the Quebecois team scoring two of his teams goals and adding a helper.

For the first time in this years playoffs, Halifax was the team that got outshot as the pucks to the net ended 31-29 in favour of Rouyn-Noranda.

NOT PLAYING - Lovell, Bailey, Alcalde, Lindsay and Lacroix-Courville will probably all be healthy scratches again tonight.
