Joshua Roy and the Sherbrooke Phoenix were swept away by the Chicoutimi Sagueneens in their opening round playoff series. The Phoenix were outscored 17-8 in the three games.
Roy recorded a goal and three assists in the series, placing him in a tie for the team's playoff point lead.
Isiah Campbell's junior career came to an end last night with the Shawinigan Cataractes being upset by the Rimouski Oceanic. Campbell had three goals in the series that went the full five games.
One of the major reasons why the Oceanic were able to pull off an upset was because of the play of Creed Jones. The overager, who rejoined the Oceanic for the restart, posted two shutouts along with a 2.79 goals against average and a .916 save percentage in the series. Jones made 26 saves in Rimouski's 2-0 win over Shawinigan in last night's deciding game.
Alex Drover, meanwhile, had one goal in the series.
The Oceanic will face the loaded Val-d'Or Foreurs in the next round. Val-d'Or had little trouble in the opening round, sweeping the Baie-Comeau Drakkar.
Maxim Cajkovic currently sits third in Foreurs scoring with two goals and three assists.
Chicoutimi, Victoriaville and Quebec are awaiting the winner of the Gatineau/Blainville-Boisbriand series to see who plays who in the quarters. All Quebec-based quarterfinal games - along with the league's semifinals and final - will be played at Quebec City's Videotron Centre.
A team from the Maritimes will head to Quebec City for the semifinals. The winner of the New Brunswick round-robin tournament will face the Charlottetown Islanders in the Maritimes Division final with the winner moving on.
The only ex-Dog still playing in the Maritimes is Wildcat Connor Richard, who has two goals and an assist in four games.
