N.A. Juniors Game Night 10/12: Two Streaks Continue; One Stops

QMJHL

Montreal Junior 0 @ Moncton Wildcats 1
D Mark Barberio, MON: 0-0-0, E, 0 PIM, 2 SOG

Barberio’s six game point streak came to an end, but the Wilcats were able to stop their modest two-game losing streak. Barberio is still a point-per-gamer for the year (8 in 8).

Gatineau Olympiques 1 @ Rimouski Oceanic 4
W/C Luca Cunti, RIM: 0-1-1, E, 0 PIM, 2 SOG

Though he hasn’t had many multi-point ones, that’s now eight games with at least a point for Cunti.

Lewiston MAINEiacs 3 @ Drummondville Voltigeurs 5
D Michael Ward, LEW: 0-1-1, -1, 0 PIM, 1 SOG

Ward, who has struggled in his Q career to find the scoresheet, now has points in four consecutive games. Drummondville got revenge for a shootout loss in Lewiston the day before.
