Rocket vs. Admirals recap & highlights: Another close loss makes the playoff climb harder

The Laval Rocket had another hard fought loss on Friday night against the Milwaukee Admirals, but the only thing that matters is that they did not earn any points in their 3-2 loss.

Laval only have nine games remaining and find themselves on the outside of the AHL North Division playoff picture. The Rocket peppered Yaroslav Askarov with 46 shots, but the young Russian stopped 44 of them in the win.

The Admirals got off to a lead early in the first period when John Leonard beat Cayden Primeau for his 13th goal of the season at the 5:47 mark.
