SAINT-GEORGES – The River Kings came from behind to beat the Saint-Georges Cool FM 3-2 in a shootout on Sunday afternoon.

Rookie defenceman Mathieu Leduc scored a powerplay goal for the River Kings in the first. Marc-Olivier Phaneuf picked up an assist on the goal, giving him points in each of his first two games as a River King.

Pete Karvouniaris was sensational in goal, turning aside 41-of-43 shots in regulation and overtime. Karvouniaris stopped Jeremy Vigneault-Belanger in the shootout to end the game.
