Abbandonato has No. 1 Huskies closing in on single-season win record:
The Huskies beat the Val-d'Or Foreurs 4-1 on Wednesday for their 22nd win in a row, matching the 2009-10 Saint John Sea Dogs for the third-longest winning streak ever in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League and bringing the club within three victories of tying a 45-year-old league record.
"We don't want to think about it but it's always in the back of your mind... day by day, game by game, keep working hard," said Abbandonato. The 20-year-old Abbandonato, who's in his fourth season with Rouyn-Noranda and went undrafted by NHL teams, picked up a goal and an assist against the Foreurs on Wednesday to give him 27 goals and 97 points in 60 games. He sits second in league scoring while leading the league in assists with 70.
Pouliot wanted the young forward to add another dimension to his game and become a bigger threat every time he's on the ice.
