Queen's Men's Hockey defeated their crosstown rivals, the RMC Paladins, 4-1 Wednesday night.

After the Paladins opened the scoring late in the first period, the Gaels scored four unanswered goals for the three-goal victory.

Dalton Duhart got Queen's on the board and evened the score early in the second period before Josh Curtis netted two straight goals, the first late in the second period and the second on the power play, late in the third period. Hayden Fowler added a fourth goal for the Gaels late with under a minute to play and Queen's held on for the 4-1 win.

With the victory, Queen's improved their record to 2-5 on the season. The Gaels will be back on the ice Friday, Nov. 4, hosting the Nipissing Lakers at 7:30 p.m. at Memorial Centre.
