Drakkar Sail into WildTown Friday Night

November 4, 2022 – Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) – Moncton Wildcats News Release

Both the Wildcats & Drakkar are coming into Friday’s game off Thursday night losses – so there will be some urgency to get things started right. These 2 points are big for 2 teams sitting mid-pack in the QMJHL standings.

Baie-Comeau sit just a couple of points behind Moncton in the standings and are led by 19 year-old Isaac Dufort (16GP, 6G, 10A), who has more than doubled his scoring pace from last season. Czech import & playmaker Matyas Melovsky (16GP, 2G, 13A) is spreading the puck around and making an immediate impact in his rookie season. Sophomore & Latvian-born Niks Fenenko is leading the back-end in scoring with 11 points so far.

The Wildcats have punched above their weight recently and are getting noticed with an ‘Honourable Mention’ nod in the latest CHL rankings and viral video highlights courtesy of Yoan Loshing’s goal of the year. Loshing leads the team in goals, assists, points & plus/minus, and as good as he has been, his linemate Vincent Labelle has been the hottest Wildcat. As those two go, so go the Wildcats. Vincent Filion has been carrying most of the crease load this season but Jacob Steinman has proven that the Cats have 2 reliable goalies.
