The River Kings, who were victorious on Friday night at Laval, picked up three points this weekend, despite the overtime loss in front of a season-high crowd of 1,211.
Alexandre Imbeault was the hero for the Eperviers, with a beautiful deke on a breakaway that beat Pete Karvouniaris 2:16 into the extra frame.

Newly acquired forward Keven Veilleux, playing in his first game on home ice for the River Kings, opened the scoring 5:26 into the game. Using his long reach, Veilleux beat Mathieu Dugas with a backhander.

Marco Charpentier replied for Sorel, with a breakaway goal at 13:44 of the first.

Maxime Charron gave Sorel a 2-1 lead 5:17 into the second when he buried a rebound past a helpless Karvouniaris. Then, with the River Kings on a powerplay, Nicolas Larocque-Marcoux leveled the score with a perfectly placed wrist shot that beat Dugas in the top corner with 5:54 left in the middle frame.
David Croteau gave Cornwall its first lead of the contest with a powerplay goal at 5:55 of the third. Croteau and linemate Nicolas Pard worked the give-and-go perfectly, with Croteau finishing the play for his 8th goal of the season.

But Sorel responded with a powerplay goal of its own with 4:51 to play in the third as Kevin Gadbury buried a loose puck in the crease to send the game to overtime.
Defenceman William Lacasse chipped in a pair of assists for the River Kings, who were outshot 33-28. Cornwall’s Curtis Tidball took on Sorel’s Guillaume Coude in the first period.

Imbeault (first), Croteau (second) and Sorel’s Dominic Leveille, who had two assists, were the announced stars.
