The Remparts had the best 3-1 over the Thunderbirds in their preliminary game last Monday.
This victory of the Remparts once morest the Thunderbirds had allowed Quebec to obtain its ticket for the final following having played only two games.
Remparts captain Théo Rochette guided the Remparts to this crucial victory with a double while Zachary Bolduc had two assists and William Rousseau shone in the Quebec net with 35 saves.
Since that setback, the Thunderbirds have defeated the Kamloops Blazers 6-1 to reach the semifinals and the Peterborough Petes 4-1 to advance to the final.
For their part, the Remparts have been on leave since Tuesday, when they lost to the Petes when they were already guaranteed a place in the final.
After concluding the regular season with the best record in the QMJHL, the Remparts swept their first three series. They then defeated the Halifax Mooseheads in six games to win their first league title in 47 years.
