It wasn’t pretty, but the Mooseheads have won their 6th in a row.

The Herd were outworked by a pesky Drummondville Voltigeurs team but still managed to capitalize on their chances to escape with a 5-2 win. The Volts outshot the Herd 28-18, including 17-7 over the final 2 periods. Scoring for the Moose were Stefan Fournier, Marty Frk, Mac Weegar, Luca Ciampini and Nathan Mackinnon into the empty net. Fournier also added 2 assists. Zach Fucale was very solid in goal making 26 saves, including several highlight reel saves during a 5-3 disadvantage for the Moose. The win improves the Mooseheads record to 8-1 on the season.

Next up for the Herd is the Memorial Cup Champions, the Shawinigan Cataractes tomorrow in Shawinigan. The Herd are back on home ice a week from today on Friday, October 19th when they host the Sherbrooke Phoenix on Pink in the Rink 5.
