Kevin Roy scored a power play goal midway through the first period, and Kevin Poulin made 15 saves as the Laval Rocket defeated the Abbotsford Canucks 3-0 on Saturday afternoon at Place Bell.
It was Roy’s seventh goal of the season, but his first since December 17 in the last game before the holiday break. He took a pass from Xavier Ouellet and fired a wrist shot from the left circle past Michael DiPietro.
Roy’s first goal in 18 games was also only the team’s second power play goal in six games.
“It felt really good,” Roy said.
