(Sackville, NB) The Moncton Aigles Bleues were in Sackville Friday night taking on the Mount Allison Mounties in AUS Women's hockey action.
The first period got off to a slow start with neither team getting any dangerous chances early. Moncton found the back of the net mid-way through the frame on a goal that was eventually disallowed. It looked like the period was going to end scoreless before Shani Rossignol found the back of the net for Moncton on a power play goal to make the score 1-0 after one period.
The Mounties pulled even in the second period on a two on one tally from Dallis Mackenzie. The visitors stormed back with three straight goals from Emily Gravelle, Elodie St-Jacques on the power play, and Laura Tremblay on the power play making the score 4-1 after two frames.
The third period opened with chances for both teams including a pair of posts at both ends. Mount Allison found themselves in the penalty box for three straight minors, leading to Moncton's Valerie Hache scoring a fifth and final goal on the power play for the visitors. The final score was 5-1 for the Aigles Bleues.
Moncton (12-6-3) returns to the ice on Sunday, January 26th to take on St. Thomas on the road, puck drop is set for 3:00pm. Mount Allison (1-20) is back in action Saturday, January 25th in Halifax against Dalhousie, puck drop is at 7:00pm.
