Tonight, the first matchup of the 2025 QMJHL semi-finals is set to kick off between the No. 1 Moncton Wildcats and the No. 6 Rouyn-Noranda Huskies.

Despite dominating the entire league, the Huskies have seemingly found the Moncton Wildcats number this season -- winning both games and outscoring them 10-6 while doing so.

Given this, the Huskies should be the Wildcats toughest task yet.
