Philip-Michael Devos' small output was just enough to make him the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League's top scorer.
Devos had two assists as the Victoriaville Tigres beat the Lewiston Maineiacs 4-2 in QMJHL play Sunday afternoon.
Although Yanni Gourde's two goals led Victoriaville to victory, it was Devos' assists that were the focus of the game, as it put him at the top of the league's scoring race.
Devos has been chasing Jonathan Audy-Marchessault of the Quebec Remparts all season.
The two helpers were enough to push Devos to the top with 23 points, one more than the idle Audy-Marchessault.
Significantly, top ranked prospect Sean Couturier of the Drummondville Voltigeurs has hardly figured into the QMJHL's scoring race, sitting at 12th with 14 points.
Elsewhere in the QMJHL it was Saint John 5 Montreal 2, Moncton 5 Halifax 1, Victoriaville 4 Lewiston 2, Drummondville 3 Chicoutimi 1, Gatineau 4 Baie-Comeau 3 and Acadie-Bathurst 4 Shawinigan 2.
At Lewiston, Maine, Phillip Danault and Brandon Hynes also had markers for Victoriaville (5-5-1).
Samuel Henley and Etienne Brodeur replied for the Maineiacs (5-5-2).
