With the Islanders leading 4-1 with seconds remaining in the second period, Montreal Canadiens prospect Xavier Simoneau was given a major penalty and a game misconduct for hitting from behind .

Parent, victim of this assault, threaded the needle twice in the third period to try to bring the two teams back to square one. Roy was an accomplice to these two successes, in addition to having made the red light sparkle in the first period.

The jewel of the Habs thus ends its spring tournament with eight goals and 23 points in only 11 games.

Defender William Trudeau, another CH draft pick, distinguished himself in the Islanders' victory by scoring the winning goal. Brett Budgell (twice) and Keiran Gallant also shook the opposing ropes.
