INTERFERENCE
There were four interference calls in last nigt's game. That is a loof crashing the net. Antoine Bibeau did get hurt in one of the scrambles but was able to continue playng.
THREE
Darcy Ashley, Jonathan Drouin and Austyn Hardie all had three points in last night's game. Ashley had the last two Halifax goals plus an assist while Drouin was the opposite, one goal and 2 assists. Hardie assisted on 3 of the four Moose goals.
SHOTS
The shots in the first and second period were the same although on the QMJHL website it says they were not. Shots in the first were 17 for Halifax and 7 for Charlottetown with it being the same story in the second. The score for those two periods were the same too, as each team scored once in each of the first 2 twenty minutes.
DROUIN
Jonathan Drouin as I mentioned above had a goal and two assists. His goal was the first home goal he has scored this season on Metro Centre ice. He know has 3 on the season.
EHLERS
With an assist on Jonathan's goal, Nikolaj Ehlers has surpassed Andrew Ryan in team scoring and now has 18 points. He is first among rookies in the league and 16th overall. He has 8 goals and 10 points in 17 games. My father was very impressed with his speed.
BIBEAU
When I talk about players on the other team it is normally their goaltender that I discuss. That trend is continuing today. Antoine Bibeau was pretty much the only indication of why the Islanders are the number 4 ranked team in the country. He played really well and at times I think we all thought, players and fans included, that his team would skate away with the victory. If he continues like this he may be called up to the big leagues real soon if the Toronto Maple Leafs ever need a goaltender.
OTHER SCORES
Cape Breton 5 - 2 Moncton
Saint John 3 - 4 Drummondville
Shawinigan 2 - 4 Val-d'Or
