This followingnoon in Laval was doggie day. For several years, the Rocket has invited its fans to throw stuffed animals onto the ice following the team’s first goal.
It would be a missed opportunity if the crowd favorites didn’t score in a given game…
No matter, Laval scored… five times, even.
The first goal of the match was scored by Riley Kidney, who casually, is having some great times.
Riley Kidney scores and it’s raining doggies!

The former Gatineau Olympics finally finished the game with two goals and an assist.
But, for the second match in two evenings, we had to watch Arber Xhekaj. After his first AHL game, the defenseman didn’t look in great shape. After all, he hadn’t played in a while, but some thought he just didn’t want to be there.
Yesterday, he collected his first point and doubled his production in a rare victory for Laval this followingnoon.
On Kidney’s second goal, he collected an assist.
His second of the match????

The one who was transferred to the left of Logan Mailloux finally finished the match with an assist and three shots on goal.
It was in front of a crowd of 10,268 people, its second largest of the season, that Laval won its match by a score of 5-1. It was his first victory in 10 matches. The last victory of Jean-François Houle’s troop dates back to November 15…
It’s been a while.
In the victory, Joshua Roy reached the plateau of 20 points this season with an assist on his team’s last goal. He is the second player on the team to reach this plateau, following his teammate Brandon Gignac.
A lot of
– Speaker of Xhekaj.
My story with Canadiens defenceman Johnathan Kovacevic talking regarding his teammate and very good friend Arber Xhekaj, who was sent down to the AHL’s Laval Rocket this week #Habs #HasIO:

– Good weekend for the Laval goalkeeper. He stopped 61 of the 65 shots aimed at him this weekend.
Dobes lets in his first shot on a softie….shut the door ever since. He has stopped 60 of 64 shots this weekend but Laval is now down two men leading 4-1.

– Certainly not the NHL.
What league is going to give out the first $1B contract? I guess it will be MLB.

– This one is intentional.
???? Bad skating from Frk on Pilut!

Molson bought The Habs AND THE building for $575 million in 2010 I believe #ShoheiOhtani
