Scarcely a minute after the fall of the puck at the start of the game, Zarakov gave the spectators a hint of the way the balance would turn when he whirled in front of the Laval net, took a lightning pass from Tudor and caged the puck for the Crimson's first score. Halfway through the first period Captain Ellison dashed down the left lane and netted a powerful drive from an acute angle. A. Matte made the lone Canadian tally near the period's close on a duplicate of Ellison's feat...
