This afternoon in Laval was dog day. For several years, the Rocket invited fans to throw stuffed animals onto the ice after the team’s first goal.
It would be a missed opportunity if the fans’ favorite team doesn’t score in any given match…
Regardless, Laval scored… five times.
The first goal of the match was scored by Riley Kidney with a cross. He’s having some great times.
Riley Kidney scores and it’s raining dogs!

The former Gatineau Olympian finally finished the game with two goals and an assist.
However, for the second match in two evenings, we had to watch Arbor Chikaj. After his first AHL game on Wednesday, the defenseman didn’t look good. After all, he hadn’t played in a while, but some thought he didn’t want to be there.
Yesterday, he collected his first point and doubled his output in a rare win for Laval this afternoon.
On Klee’s second goal, he had an assist.
His second in the match🚀
His second of the match! #Rocket_launch https://t.co/Ym5ywsygAQ pic.twitter.com/CSZQeW2KFH– Rocket Laval (@RocketLaval) December 9, 2023
The one moved to the left of Logan Mylox finally finished the game with an assist and three shots on goal. I fear a man twice his size…
In front of a crowd of 10,268, their second largest crowd of the season, Laval won their match 5-1. This was his first win in 10 matches. The last victory of Jean-François Houle’s forces dates back to November 15…
It’s been a long time.
In the victory, Joshua Roy reached the plateau of 20 points this season An assist in his team’s last goal. He is the second player on the team to reach this plateau, after his teammate Brandon Gignac.

– Have a good weekend Laval goalkeeper. He stopped 61 of 65 shots aimed at him this weekend.
Dobes lets his first shot at a softie….he’s closed the door ever since. He stopped 60 of 64 shots this weekend but Laval now trails two men and leads 4-1.

Which league will award the first billion-dollar contract? I think it will be MLB.
