St. John's Maple Leafs 5, Hamilton Bulldogs 1

The surging Buds won their fourth straight on the road, whipping the Hamilton Bulldogs 5-1 at the Copps Coliseum to end an ugly sixteen game winless skid in the Steel city that dated back to October 28, 2001. Jean Sebastian Aubin won his debut as the Maple Leafs have now won nine of their past ten and sit third in the Northern division just six points back of front running Edmonton with three games in hand.
