Game Day 60: vs. Quebec

PREVIEW - Our Halifax Mooseheads host the league-leading Quebec Remparts for DND Appreciation Night this evening and will be looking for their fifth straight win. This game was supposed to be played months ago back in January but was postponed due to the pandemic. Halifax will have a pre-game ceremony and wear specially themed jerseys to honour those who are in the Canadian Armed Forces. They will have a tough test as the Remparts come to town with their QMJHL leading 85 points however the Moose haven't been slumps against top teams this season so it should be an interesting game. We'll also see three of the top 10 leading scorers during this match Theo Rochette (7th) and Zachary Bolduc (9th) of Quebec and Jordan Dumais (10th) of Halifax. Quebec is on a nine game win streak heading into tonight.
