WILDCATS DE MONCTON VS JUNIOR DE MONTRÃAL Le Junior joue pour le cancer du sein
Montréal, le 21 octobre 2009 - C'est tout vêtu de rose que le Junior de Montréal affrontait mercredi soir les Wildcats de Moncton pour la première fois de la saison dans cette soirée qui promouvait la sensibilisation à la lutte contre le cancer du sein. Les hommes de Pascal Vincent étaient à la recherche de la victoire qui mettrait fin à une série de 4 défaites, mais ils devront attendre au prochain match car c'est par un pointage de 4 à 2 que les Wildcats l'ont finalement emporté.
Le premier vingt s'est montré très offensif de la part des deux équipes, et c'est l'ailier Guillaume Asselin qui ouvre la marque après seulement 1 minute de jeu donnant ainsi les devants à son équipe. Ce n'est que deux minutes plus tard que le centre MacAusland enfile le deuxième but du match pour niveler la marque au tableau, suivit par son acolyte Scott Brannon des Wildcats qui trouve le fond du filet seulement 30 secondes plus tard. La recrue Eliezer Sherbatov a cependant su profiter de la supériorité numérique en marquant son sixième but de la saison et permettant aux siens d'égaliser le pointage à 2-2.
Le deuxième tiers a été surmené par la formation acadienne alors que Hrivik trouve le fond du filet à 2 :41 profitant ainsi de l'avantage numérique des siens. C'est ensuite Randy Cameron qui contribue à l'avance des Wildcats, profitant d'une passe de Savard pour décocher un tir entre les jambières d'Allen.
Au dernier engagement, la formation montréalaise a tout essayé pour reprendre le dessus mais sans succès alors que les deux équipes n'ont pu faire bouger le pointage.
Le Junior accueillera de nouveau ses partisans à l'Auditorium de Verdun le vendredi 23 octobre pour faire face aux Voltigeurs de Drummondville, l'équipe actuellement en tête du circuit Courteau. L'équipe se dirigera ensuite vers les Maritimes pour jouer successivement à Halifax (le 29), à PEI (le 31) et à Moncton (le 1er).
