Durepos Joins Aigles Bleus

The Universite de Moncton Aigles Bleus announced today their first wave of recruits for the 2013-14 Atlantic University Sport season.

Joining the UdeM program is former Saint John Sea Dogs captain Pierre Durepos. The defenseman spent the past four seasons with Saint John, helping the club win three regular season championships, two President Cups, and a Memorial Cup.

Durepos played in just 43 regular season games in 2012-13 because of injury, recording six goals and 25 assists. He added an assist in four playoff games. He was named team captain following the departure of Jonathan Huberdeau.

The Aigles Bleus also announced today that, as basically everyone on the planet expected, Alex and Allain Saulnier will be joining the team. The twins have spent the past four seasons with the Moncton Wildcats.

Moncton finished the 2012-13 AUS season with a 12-10-6 record, placing them sixth in the eight-team league.

Former Sea Dogs captain Charles Bergeron spent five seasons at UdeM from 2007-2012 while another former Dogs captain, Mike Thomas, will begin his AUS playing career this fall at UNB.
