MONTREAL - Sophomore ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ Francis Verreault-Paul of Mashteviatsh, Que., scored twice and added a helper as No.5-ranked ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ doubled the Carleton Ravens in OUA men's university hockey at McConnell Arena, Wednesday.

Ìý

The Redmen improved to 5-0 in the OUA East and remain one of three undefeated teams in Canada, along with UQTR (7-0) and UNB (6-0).

±«ÓãÖ±²¥ led 1-0 after the opening stanza on a goal by Longueuil, Que., native Simon Marcotte-Légaré at 13:09.

Ìý

Verreault-Paul gave ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ a 2-0 lead at 7:14 of the middle period, then added a power-play marker which made it 3-1 early in the third, which proved to be the game-winner. He also assisted on an empty-netter by Alexandre Picard-Hooper of Boucherville, Que., to put the game out of reach.

The two Raven markers were scored by Shane Bakker of Navan, Ont., and Ryan Berard of Niagara Falls, Ont.

±«ÓãÖ±²¥ is now 11-10-1 lifetime against the Ravens in a series that began during the 1960s but was dormant for 33 years until Carleton revived their program four years ago. Since the Ravens were reborn, ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ has posted a 9-2 record in 11 meetings, with 48-24 margin in goals. Carleton, 4-4-0 in the OUA East

Ìý

Carleton, which dropped to 4-4 in the OUA East Conference and trail the Redmen by two points in the standings, will host Nipissing in the front end of a home-and-home series on Nov. 6.

Ìý

The Redmen will attempt to stretch their win streak to six when they play host to the Toronto Varsity Blues (4-3-1) on Sunday at 2 p.m.

Ìý

The game against U of T is designated as ±«ÓãÖ±²¥'s annual "Minor Hockey Day" and will feature a number of mini-games played during each intermission. Admission is free of charge to all minor hockey players who arrive with their team jersey.

Ìý

REDMEN RAP: The entire ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ team will be at the Bell Centre on Friday to see the AHL game between and Hamilton, the Montreal Canadiens top farm team, which features three former Redmen captains, including head coach Guy Boucher, assistant coach Martin Raymond and left-winger Mathieu Darche, who leads the Bulldogs in scoring with a 7-2-9 record in 11 games... No word yet on whether any of them will be wearing their alma mater's tie, like Detroit's Mike Babcock did during the Stanley Cup playoffs... Hamilton, the only AHL team that has yet to lose in regulation time, owns a 7-0-1 record... The contest is slated for a 7:30 p.m. faceoff and tickets range from $5 to $34.
