TROIS-RIVIÈRES – The Trois-Rivières Lions (affiliate of the Montreal Canadiens) and the Norfolk Admirals (affiliate of the Winnipeg Jets) will face off in Game 6 of the North Division Final tonight at Colisée Vidéotron.
Players to Watch – Trois-Rivières Lions:
- #91 Anthony Beauregard: The shifty forward scored the overtime winner in Game 5, sending his team home with the series lead. He has collected 4 points in 5 games in Round 2, including 3 goals.
- #92 Logan Nijhoff: Nijhoff was buzzing around the net throughout Sunday’s game but couldn’t find the back of the net. He has only recorded 2 points so far in Round 2, but remains a constant threat.
- #86 Jakov Novak: A physical presence in front of Norfolk’s goalie Thomas Milic, Novak ignored the jeers from opposing fans and registered the primary assist on Beauregard’s overtime winner.
Players to Watch – Norfolk Admirals:
- #8 Dennis Smirnov: Norfolk’s most dynamic forward in the last game, Smirnov used his speed to create dangerous scoring chances but couldn’t capitalize.
- #17 Jack O’Leary: The speedy winger has caused headaches for the Lions' defense during the games in Norfolk, constantly generating offense in the attacking zone.
- #93 Grant Hebert: The towering forward disrupted Trois-Rivières’ defensive efforts with his long reach and physical play along the boards during the Admirals' home stand.
