Been a busy few days in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey
League. Here’s a look at some of the stuff that has made headlines this past
week.
Anthony DeLuca, selected in the second round of last
weekend’s QMJHL Entry Draft by Rimouski, will play for the Oceanic next season.
He had committed to the University of Vermont. It’s been a successful couple of
weeks for last year’s President’s Cup finalists as they also got Maxime Gravel
and Frederic Gauthier to report next season. Turns out the Sea Dogs aren’t the
only team who can get players considering NCAA to come play junior. Huh. [The Mack Report]
Eric Veilleux will not be behind the Shawinigan Cataractes bench next season. Radio-Canada reports that he’ll take over as
Baie-Comeau Drakkar head coach. [Radio-Canada]
There were only two QMJHL graduates on the Stanley Cup
champion Los Angeles Kings. [QMJHL]
Just a few days after the QMJHL Entry Draft, the Moncton
Wildcats “parted ways” with chief scout Peter Nevin. Willy Palov reports that
Roger Shannon will take over. No official announcement has been made. [Twitter,

The Mooseheads expect to have both Martin Frk and Konrad
Abeltshauser back next season but they will still be picking in the CHL Import
Draft later this month. [Metro Halifax]
Speaking of the Import Draft, the defending OHL champion
London Knights will be selecting ninth overall following a trade yesterday. The
Moncton Wildcats will select first. [Twitter]
