Three in three in La Belle Province and according to the T&T, a number of Wildcats players are under the weather. It usually happens every year but it is especially bad when it happens just before a 3 in 3 road trip.
Hopefully the healthy players can rise to the challenge.

If there's any plus side to this trip it's that the strength of opponent seemingly decreases each game. Shawinigan will be playing their third game in four days Saturday so that would be advantage Moncton on the fatigue side there.
Unfortunately a bunch of players being sick throws a bit of a wrench into things. Hopefully they can still pull out at least 4/6 points.

That went well last night ... solid team defense and strong game by Rodrigue.

Heading into Friday, I would have agreed with you, but after seeing the Cape Breton vs Quebec results i think it’s safe to say we will be hard pressed to go undefeated on this trip. It will certainly be no cake walk, and we will already have played two games in 24hrs ( an 8:30 then a 5pm today). Maybe Cape Breton just didn’t show up to play and I am reading more into this than there is but the comment we play worst opponents as weekend progresses doesn’t seem accurate ( technically based on standings you are right) Also Great game last night! Am curious to see how Axel Andersen’s fight went. Couldn’t believe it when I saw it in boxscore.

So, is Lund-Cornish the starter today vs SHA and then Rodrigue back in tomorrow vs QUE ?

Regarding last night's game, I see on the Q site that the hits were 34 to 16 in favour of the Wilcats. It looks like they came out to play.
Keep it up guys.

Back into first in the conference today if we can pull of a win. 3rd game in 46 hrs once it's done. Quebec did not play last night so they'll be rested. Today could be a preview of our first round matchup.
