Third-year forward Quinn Johnston has led the Gaels offense with four goals and one assist for a team-best five points. Kaylie Dennis sits second for Queen's with two goals and two assists for four points and Taylor Hicks has been a key playmaker for Queen's with a team-high three assists. 

Through eight games, the Gaels sit second in the OUA with 38 power-play opportunities and have a 3-1 record at home. 

The Gaels will host the Kingston Jr. Ice Wolves for Ice Wolves Day. Queen's currently have three Kingston Jr. Ice Wolves alum on their roster Scout Watkins Southward, Shelby Sly and Kathryn Jalink. 

Queen's lost twice to the Gryphons last season, a side that won the McCaw Cup for the third time in the past four years. The Gaels defeated the Badgers 4-3 in the shootout earlier this season and have won their last 16 contests against Brock.
