The Rouyn-Noranda Huskies of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League grabbed a win Wednesday to end round-robin play in the Memorial Cup thanks to a late, game-winning goal from a Boston Bruins’ prospect.
Jakub Lauko ripped a wrist shot past Halifax Mooseheads goaltender Alexis Gravel with 55 seconds left for his second goal in three Memorial Cup games. He now has five points over that span.
