Lions Bites: The roar is mightier than the growl

The Lions de Trois-Rivières spent week six of the ECHL regular-season calendar in Newfoundland, the home of the top team in the entire league, the Newfoundland Growlers, and played three games in three nights. None were easy, but the Lions managed to take an unlikely four out of six points in a classic ECHL version of the Montreal Canadiens versus Toronto Maple Leafs battle.

Player Movement

Prior to the Lions leaving for The Rock, there were several personnel changes to be noted. The biggest piece of news in that regard this past week was the departure of Arsen Khisamutdinov, who agreed to mutually terminate his entry-level contract with the Montreal Canadiens after being suspended by the team.
