Moncton juniors down Kensington

The Moncton Vito’s scored five times in the first period and cruised to a 7-3 win over the Kensington Moase Plumbing and Heating Vipers in P.E.I. and New Brunswick junior B hockey action Saturday in Moncton.

Eric Allen, Erik Lang, Samuel Savoie, Philippe-Alexis Vachon (1-1) and Joseph Theriault did the main damage while Allen added another goal in the second and Remi Bois’s score capped things in the third.
