I'd actually consider the Friday night game against Quebec to be the more highly anticipated match-up. Regardless the road trip in general is going to be a good test.

Quebec will be the one to watch. But with the Volts 2 wins against the Remparts loss makes them a "hot" team. Quebec is only 1 point ahead of the Volts at this stage of the game. |

It is a tough road trip...but...please remember that championships are not won in November. A loss to any of these teams is not the end of the world and sooner or later a regulation L is coming.

Who is hot?
Chris Doyle of the PEI Rocket is on fire.
He is on a mission. He is now the third league scoring leaders with 34 points (12 G & 22 A). 10 points in Nov. so far (5GP), 6 in the last 2 GP.
The Rocket were in 17th place and are now in 9th with 23 points.
The Rocket has been playing without two of their top three D's.
Maxime Provencher (20) got injured in the first period during the 3-2 S.O. loss vs the Wildcats in MON on Oct. 30.
Louis-Phillipe Lacroix (18) has been out since Oct. 4th vs SHA.
Provencher will be back when the Rocket will beat the Wildcats on Nov. 26. Lacroix skated for the first this week.

It isn't as tough as it could be ... We play Quebec 1st ... they play Wednesday also so fatigue from the trip should be countered by them playing 2 nights before. We play Drum on Saturday ... they also play Friday night so both teams will be playing their 2nd game in as many nights. Then Montreal on Sunday ... also their 3rd game in 3 days (PEI and Gat before us) ... and they are on the road on Saturday so they get a bit of travel thrown in there too. It will still be tough ... hectic ... but fatigue shouldn't become much of an issue. |

If so, that would make twice this year that he got hurt against the Cats - might not be the best game to bring him back ... ;D Edit: Just looked it up and I am correct ... I seem to recall him geting crushed by Brannon the first game - what happened the second time? |

It will still be tough ... hectic ... but fatigue shouldn't become much of an issue. I posted this in another thread but Montreal plays on Wendesday against Bathurst so it will be 4 games in 5 days for them. They should technically be the more tired team going into Sunday's game. |
