Chicoutimi dominates Halifax with a nine-goal offensive explosion. Vermette ignites the attack, while prospects and emerging stars light the scoreboard.
There may have been six games but none were as decisive and explosive as Chicoutimi's win over Halifax.
Zoomed In: Chicoutimi (9) - Halifax (3)
Chicoutimi celebrate (Photo: Bruno Girard)Lately, there's been no stopping Chicoutimi, who have demolished just about any and every team that has bothered to step in their way as of yet. Last night was no different, making quick and easy work of the Halifax Mooseheads.
Emmanuel Vermette led the way with four points, while 2026 NHL draft prospect Emile Ricard netted a goal and two assists and Nathan Lecompte, Christophe Berthelot, Alonso Gosselin, and Anaheim Ducks prospects Maxim Masse and Emile Guite all got two a piece.
It also proved to be a special occasion for Jacob Gomez, who scored his first career QMJHL goal.
