PORTLAND, ME - January 26, 2025 - The Maine Mariners fell to the Trois-Rivieres Lions by a final score of 4-2 on Sunday afternoon at the Cross Insurance Arena. Lions captain and former Mariner Morgan Adams-Moisan netted a pair of goals for the visitors.
Adams-Moisan got the scoring started with a goal at 5:25 of the opening period, tipping Wyatt McLeod's screen shot through traffic past Ryan Bischel. The Mariners answered with a deflection goal of their own at 8:58 when Nick Jermain redirected Michael Underwood's drive to tie it up. The Lions outshot Maine 9-1 in the opening period, but it was a 1-1 game through 20 minutes.
Adams-Moisan broke the tie with his second goal of the game at 6:09 of the second period, beating Bischel with a wrister in the slot. At 15:57 of the middle frame, just after the end of a power play, the Lions took a two-goal lead on a goal by Anthony Beauregard, who capitalized after the Mariners failed to clear the zone.
The Lions went up 4-1 with just under six minutes left in the third on Alex Beaucage's unassisted drive down the right wing. Maine got back within two with 1:55 left on a goal from Lynden McCallum, but couldn't get any closer.
The Mariners (16-19-3-0) and Lions play three games next week in Trois-Rivieres starting Wednesday night at 7 PM. The Mariners return to home ice on Sunday, February 2nd at 3 PM against Worcester for "Groundhog Day," and a chance to clinch the VIP Rivalry Cup.
