QMJHL:
The Halifax Mooseheads lost the first 2 games of their playoff series against the Quebec Ramparts over the weekend. They’re going to be making the trip to Quebec for the next 3 games which is bad news for the Mooseheads.. Since they’re hosting the Memorial Cup, they make the finals anyway, but i’m sure the players wouldn’t like to be bounced in the first round after the year they’ve had.
The Moncton Wildcats and Baie-Comeau are tied at a game a piece.
The Charlottetown Islanders are up 2-0 against the Screaming Eagles
