Lions Advance To Eastern Conference Finals
The Lions eliminated the Norfolk Admirals 6-3 Wednesday night at Colisee Videotron to take the North Division Finals series 4-2.
Head coach Ron Choules' squad came out strong in a back-and-forth battle, taking an early lead two minutes into the game when Andrew Coxhead beat Admirals goaltender Thomas Milic top shelf with a wrister from the left-wing circle.
The Admirals responded with two goals of their own to take a brief lead before the end of the opening frame. Connor Fedorek blasted home his first goal this postseason off an offensive zone faceoff to tie things up 1-1. Shortly after, Justin Young redirected a feed from Josh McDougall out front to give Norfolk a 2-1 lead. It was Young's first of the post-season and a key momentum swing for the Admirals.
The Lions regained momentum late in the first period but were unable to capitalize again before the intermission.
The second period saw Trois-Rivières carry their momentum forward with two unanswered goals to retake the lead. Five minutes in, the Lions capitalized on a loose puck in the Admirals' defensive zone as Chris Jandric found the net to tie the game 2-2.
Midway through the frame, Jakov Novak gave Trois-Rivières a 3-2 lead with a shot from the slot, putting the home side back in front.
Norfolk managed to tie the game once more after a puck deflected off Jandric's skate and found its way past Lions goaltender Luke Cavallin.
Nicolas Guay gave the Lions a 4-3 lead early in the third period, beating Milic with a shot over the right shoulder. The Admirals pushed hard in search of the equalizer, generating pressure throughout the frame, but the score held as the clock wound down.
With under two minutes remaining, the Lions extended their lead on a goal from Anthony Beauregard, sealing the game and the series.
Beauregard scored his second of the game on an empty-netter to seal the 6-3 final, ending the Admirals' season.
Trois-Rivières now advances to face the three-time defending Kelly Cup champion Florida Everblades in the Eastern Conference Finals. Game 1 will take place Saturday at Hertz Arena in Estero, with puck drop scheduled for 7 Pm ET.

However, manager Ruben Amorim has been working his players hard in pre-season and has brought in a brand new front line in Benjamin Sesko, Bryan and Matheus Cunha. That should guarantee goals but there are still plenty of question marks over the midfield, defence and goalkeeper. After another second-place finish in the Premier League, Mikel Arteta has addressed the issues in the squad and hopes to launch a legitimate title challenge. Martín Zubimendi will help to dictate play in midfield and Noni Madueke offers pace and skill on the wing. But it is the arrival of Viktor Gyökeres that is exciting the fans the most, as it seems the Gunners have finally found a clinical centre forward. As for the early team news, United are expected to be without Noussair Mazraoui, Andre Onana and Lisandro Martinez, while only Gabriel Jesus and Leandro Trossard are expected to be unfit for the visitors.
