Rousseau saw a perfect opportunity late in the game against Rouyn-Noranda as the Huskies had their goalie pulled in favour of the extra attacker. Rousseau made no mistake of it, sending a perfect shot down the ice and into the middle of the net.
Halifax won the game 6-4, with the help of a hattrick from Jordan Dumais. Not only did Rousseau manage the goalie goal, but th undrafted 19-year-old has been having a fantastic season so far, going 7-1-0 in eight games, with a save percentage of .939 and a goals against average of 1.87.
