The day after a loss (6 to 1) against the Baie-Comeau Drakkar, the Quebec Remparts lowered their flag again on Saturday at the Henry Centre-Leonard against the same team with a score of 4 to 3 in overtime.
Justin Poirier scored the winning goal in overtime to give the local favorites victory.

With a lead of 3 to 1 with 1:41 minutes to play, everything pointed to the Remparts heading for their 14th win of the season. At that moment, however, the Drakkar, through Poirier, managed to deceive Quentin Miller's vigilance for the second time in the meeting.
A few seconds later, it was Justin Gill's turn to score, sending both teams into overtime.
Eric Veilleux's players can therefore blame themselves. The Drakkar were undisciplined throughout the game, giving their then rivals eight opportunities due to numerical superiority. The Remparts only managed to take advantage of these chances once, when Daniel Agostino flashed the red light in the first third.
Zachary Marquis-Laflamme also responded twice for Quebec. Note that it was Drakkar who scored the first hit in the opening moments of the first battle, thanks to Jules Boilard.
Miller held the fort throughout the game, but broke through in the final moments, making 32 saves against his opponents' 36 shots.
