Ethan Gauthier opened the scoring for the Voltigeurs, Jacob Steinman making back-to-back saves before Gauthier finally buried the rebound on Drummondville’s third attempt. Brady Schultz tied the game from the top of the left wing faceoff circle, receiving a pass from Carlos Handel and firing a shot through the five-hole of Voltigeurs netminder Louis-Félix Charrois

Braeden MacPhee gave the Herd their first lead of the night 13 minutes into the second period. Captain Brady Schultz found MacPhee with a lengthy pass from the Moosehead zone. MacPhee’s initial shot was stopped by Charrois, but MacPhee forced a rebound and banked the puck off Charrois’s pad and into the Volt’s net. Steinman also earned an assist on the play.

Halfway through the second period, the Mooseheads announced forwards Caylen Blake and Callum Aucoin would miss the remainder of the game with injuries.
