SERIES

Halifax leads the best-of-seven series 3-0

PREVIEW - Can the Halifax Mooseheads get their third straight sweep or will Rouyn-Nornada be the team to give the Moose their first lost?

This question will be answered tonight after the Mooseheads took a 3-0 stranglehold on the series on Tuesday night. After a scoreless first, Marcus Power scored his fourth of the playoffs to give the Huskies a 1-0 lead that didn't last long. Konrad Abeltshauser scored just over 2 minutes later to tie the game and than Stefan Fournier scored for the Herd a period later to give them a 2-1 lead. With less than 4 minutes left in regulation, Francis Perron tied it up for the home team and forced overtime. The game winner took longer this time but the result was the same. Jonathan Drouin scored the overtime winner off a nice feed from Nathan MacKinnon.

Both goalies were pretty good after a high scoring game on Tuesday. They both made some very nice saves.

The Huskies were able to shoot 12 pucks at Fucale in the first period as did the Moose but in the last 3, they couldn't get more than six as shots ended 49-24 in favour of Halifax

NOT PLAYING - Trey Lewis is projected to be back in the lineup tonight after being out in Game 3
