Blues close out the pre-season with a 5–2 win over the Moncton Hawks
Carson Chappell had a hand in all five goals as the Blues erased an early deficit and beat the Moncton Hawks 5–2 to close out the pre-season.
The Riverview Blues finished the pre-season the same way they started it: with a win. After falling behind early against the Moncton Hawks on Thursday, the Blues leaned on the line of Jake McAllister, Carson Chappell and Charlie Lavoie and pulled away for a 5–2 exhibition victory in Moncton.
Chappell was in on every Riverview goal, finishing with two goals and three assists. McAllister and Lavoie each added a goal and an assist, and the line accounted for four of the Blues' five goals.
Six seconds to flip the game
Moncton opened the scoring in the first period before the JCC line took over. McAllister tied the game with Chappell and Lavoie drawing the assists, and on the same shift, just six seconds later, Chappell scored on his own to put the Blues in front 2–1.
Pulling away
The line kept coming in the second period. Lavoie extended the lead, finishing a play with Chappell and McAllister, and Chappell buried his second of the night later in the frame, with Jase Inglis picking up the assist.
Caeden Colpitts sealed it in the third, scoring with 2:03 to play off a feed from Chappell for the Blues' fifth goal.
The Blues close the pre-season with back-to-back wins, after opening it with a 3–2 victory over the Shediac / Cap-Pelé Prédateurs in Cap-Pelé last Saturday. Next up is league play.
