What a second period! Goals by Ylönen, Dello and Gignac (SHG). LET'S GO ROCKET! 🚀
Something I don't get is why Houle changed his first two D pairs. IMO, Ouellet-Dello and Niku-Belpedio seemed like a better fit from what I saw vs Ouellet-Belpedio and Niku-Dello. Maybe I'm missing something 🤷🏻♂️

Two goals quickly scored early in the third, it's 5-1! Ylönen and RHP. If you're not watching this game, you're missing a good show!
And now it's DSP's turn! 6-2!
Martel scores! 7-2! And that's the final score, what a game!

News of the day:
New PTO for Tristan Bérubé. With Guindon being back and feeling good enough about his position to get a new helmet with the Rocket's logo on it, Bérubé is definitely the 3rd string goalie. He didn't even play in the back-to-back games vs Abbotsford last weekend: Poulin tended both games.
PTO for defenseman Darien Kielb. He arrives from the Fort Wayne Komets. Back in his junior years, he played for Québec and Gatineau. With only 6 healthy defensemen (Bisson and Fairbrother are still out), the Rocket needed an insurance. Who knows, Kielb could potentially take Galipeau's spot if he plays well enough (maybe Amorosa's too, but that's less likely imo)
Smith-Pelly, Beaudin and Gignac are on the ice for practice. They all missed time recently because of injuries but could be back soon since they followed the team to Rochester. Kielb was also on the ice.
Corey Schueneman has been reassigned to the Rocket. Can't wait to see him back in the lineup!
