• The team had a busy holiday break, playing three exhibition matches and two regular season contests. The Gaels first played in the third annual Montreal University Cup in Pierrefonds, Que. They lost both games, 4-2 to the McGill Redmen and 4-1 to the Waterloo Warriors. On Jan. 2, Queen’s lost their final exhibition game 6-3 to the Quinnipiac Bobcats when they visited Northfield, Connecticut. Three days later, Queen’s and goaltender Matt Kenney were given a rough ride by the Western Mustangs, falling 8-3. Kenney was responsible for seven of the goals in 48 minutes, and Chris Hall made his CIS debut the rest of the way, allowing a single goal on five shots. However, Kenney rebounded well two nights later, posting a 31-save shutout in a 1-0 win over RMC. Brady Olsen scored the lone marker for the Gaels, who now stand at 5-11-1 on the season.
