Saint John wins Memorial Cup, William Dufour named tournament MVP

Hey, remember that article from, like, three days ago about Islanders prospect William Dufour scoring four goals in a [some sponsor or another] Memorial Cup game to put his Saint John Sea Dogs in the championship game?

Well, that game was tonight. And Saint John won, beating the Hamilton Bulldogs 6-3, to take this year’s Memorial Cup. And Dufour had a goal and an assist and was named the tournament’s Most Valuable Player.

Here’s the goal, scored about five minutes into the second period. It would turn out to be the game-winner (and that pass by Ryan Francis isn’t too shabby, either).
