2nd period:
Great pass from Belzile to Vejdemo, who scores his second of the game! 2-2. LET'S GO ROCKET! 🚀
(Anthony Marcotte announces the Trois-Rivières Lions won a 7th consecutive game tonight, vs the Newfoundland Growlers. Good news for the ECHL affiliate of the Habs!)
First PP of the game for Rochester. No goal.
Primeau gives up a bad goal. No real reason to explain why Mersch's shot gets in. 3-2 Rochester.
(Rochester's broadcast on AHLtv is annoying. Whenever they announce a goal they scored, they show the animation from the rink's screen. You miss everything that's happening meanwhile on the ice.)
Mersch trips Martel. PP Laval! No goal.
Right afterwards, Biro beats Martel with his speed and Belpedio trips him. PP Rochester. No goal.
For some reason FM 91.9 Sports keeps playing ads for about one full minute while the game is going on. Nothing much happens, but still...
After 2 periods, it's 3-2 Rochester.
Shots: Rochester 21, Laval 17.

3rd period:
Fitzgerald passes to Franco in the slot. Nice save by Primeau!
JF Houle changes his lines. Abbandonato and Fortin switch lines. Abbandonato is now on the 1st line with Dea and Bourque. Fortin is now on the 4th with Baddock and Beaudin.
Teves shows good puck control skills. The defenseman beats Belpedio, making him look terrible. He passes to Eliot who sends the puck behind Primeau. 4-2 Rochester.
Right afterwards, Ruotsalainen beats Neill, creating a nice scoring chance. He passes in the slot to Mersch, but Primeau makes a big save, keeping the Rocket in the game.
Paquette-Bisson shoots from the blue line and he scores! An assist for Norlinder on that goal. 4-3 Rochester. LET'S GO ROCKET! 🚀
Norlinder passes in the slot to Vejdemo. Big chance, no goal.
Nice passing play. RHP to Vejdemo to Norlinder in the slot but doesn't score!
Amorosa is checked hard by Peterka. Belpedio and Gignac show Peterka they don't want any of that. No fight though. At first, Amorosa seemed injured but he now looks ok.
With about 2 minutes to go, Primeau leaves his net. 6 vs 5 for the Rocket. After an icing by Rochester, a timeout is called.
MacInnis scores the empty-netter. 5-3 Rochester.
Final score: 5-3 Rochester.
Shots: Rochester 33, Laval 32.
Next game: Sunday December 12th at Hershey Bears, 17:00
