Notching a pair of quick tallies set the tone as the Powassan Voodoos went on to roll past the French River Rapids 12-2 in a Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League mid-week match-up Wednesday at the Powassan Sportsplex.

The Voodoos took the lead a minute and a half in, moments after Powassan netminder Tomas Kniaziew made a big save at one end, then saw them transition quickly as an open Jesse Lefebvre whipped a shot that Rapids starter Keiran Caughran could not quite control before it slid in.

Adding another one on the next shift, Ryan Saginaw chipped a loose puck along the side boards ahead and raced in on a breakaway that he lifted in for his team-leading 17th of the season.

That saw French River opt to make a goaltending change as Matis Bureau-Morel entered in long relief.

Go up 3-0
