These Kids Are Going to Be Alright

Friday night was a whole bunch of firsts for 2009 3rd round pick Ryan Bourque as the young left wing made sure he made a huge impact in his first regular season game in the QMJHL. Just one day after being returned to the Quebec Remparts by the Rangers, Bourque was a major factor in Quebec's 4-2 win over the Shawinigan Cataractes.

2 goals, 1 assist, and a First Star of the game is what we call a nice way to get your season started. Bourque picked up right where he left off from the exhibition season as if he was not gone for 2 weeks.

Bourque got his night going by scoring a power play goal at 12:08 of the first period as Bourque converted a feed from Alexandre Nieron to give Quebec a 1-0 lead. In the 2nd period Bourque earned a secondary assist on Marc-Oliver Vallerand's power play goal at 17:37 which gave the Remparts a 3-1 lead that proved to be the game winner.
