The Gee-Gees, the defending University Cup champions, made the announcement official on social media Wednesday.
Bilodeau, who turned 20 in March, had one year of junior eligibility remaining. The Gatineau native will instead play much closer to home.
Bilodeau was a fourth-round pick of Saint John in the 2021 QMJHL Entry Draft. He appeared in 198 career QMJHL games over three seasons, posting 19 goals and 83 assists.
Last season, Bilodeau posted four goals and 30 assists in 63 games. He also sported an 'A' on his sweater.
The Gee-Gees pulled off one of the all-time great underdog stories at the University Cup this past March. As the No. 8 seed, the host team strung together three straight upset wins to capture the U Sports national title.
This announcement continues to signify a major revamp of the Sea Dogs' defensive core. With recent additions, Saint John could have an almost entirely new group on the backend to open the season.
