10/21 Recap: Grigorenko feeds winner

In Sunday action, Mikhail Grigorenko set up Logan Shaw for the game winning goal with just under five minutes to play as Quebec skated to a 3-2 triumph at Drummondville. The power play helper extends Grigorenko's season-starting point streak to a dozen games, equaling his previous best set last January. The Russian pivot, who has collected 10 goals and 24 points thus far, will look to continue the hot hand Thursday versus Baie-Comeau.


In Sweden, Linus Ullmark made 18 stops as MODO J20 earned a 5-2 win over Lulea. Ullmark improves to 4-3-0 in SuperElit league play. His 2.32 goals against average is tops in the league for goaltenders with more than one start.

Alex Lepkowski finished with an even rating as Barrie was outplayed in a 4-1 loss at Brampton. The Colts, who were unbeaten in regulation in their previous nine games, will host a rematch with the Battalion on Thursday.
