The Cape Breton Eagles are on the ropes in the QMJHL playoffs.

They fell 8-2 to the Baie-Comeau Drakkar in Game 4 of their third round series Tuesday in Sydney.

It was a rough game, with several game misconducts handed out.

The Drakkar took an early 3-0 lead and never looked back.

Baie-Comeau can win the series on Thursday night at home.

The Eagles will hope to force a Game 6 back at Centre 200 on Saturday.
