Guillaume Asselin had a goal and an assist for the Sagueneens (6-8-2), who have dropped four straight contests, and Lukas Sedlak scored the other.

Zachary Fucale only had to make 15 saves for the win as Francis Desrosiers allowed five goals on 34 shots before getting pulled midway through the third period.

Mathieu Duquette played the final 10:51 of the game and stopped 6-of-7 shots in relief.
