Just offensively, full of confidence and escorted by a collective alchemy that promises bright futures, Bordeaux got everything right once again this Saturday night. The revenge had initially taken on the appearance of a correction when the visitors, in less than seven minutes, solidified their undisputed domination with three goals (10’16, 12’56, 16’57).

Always one step ahead
The Dragons, even being pushed on their ice, had the answer and made it known through the skill of Simon Lafrance, who gave a boost to the team, as well as to the crowd (2-4, 33’06). But this 2025-2026 version of Bordeaux has that extra little something, that unshakeable confidence, that desire to go fast and strong, and the character to showcase. Ingredients that allow the team to avoid trembling at the end of the match after Quentin Tomasino completed his team’s masterful work (3-5, 51’18).
The experience, with a third consecutive participation in the playoffs, the maturity, and the confidence maintained in recent weeks give credit to the goal of reaching a second final in three years. While it’s not yet match point, the Boxers, who have clearly made a strong statement, are more than ever in a position of strength, at the start of the two home games at Mériadeck, scheduled for this Tuesday and Wednesday.
