Trailing 0-2 in their series, the Laval Rocket needed a win this afternoon against the Checkers. And for the occasion, Cayden Primeau was sent into the fray.
It was a peculiar decision considering his first two tough starts, but once again, he was preferred to Fowler.
And in the first period, Primeau was decent. He allowed one goal, but that was it.

The problem was that early in the second period, the Rocket and their goaltender went on a rampage.
The Checkers scored three quick goals… and for the second game in a row, Primeau was thrown out of the game in the second after allowing four goals.
Jacob Fowler took his place in front of the net.
