The current points leader in the QMJHL and captain of the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada, Jonathan Fauchon, will be traded in the coming weeks.
The information was confirmed on Sunday by our colleague Stéphane Leroux.
20 years old – he will be 21 next January – Fauchon will join the Rimouski Océanic, host team for the next Memorial Cup.
The center player from Lévis currently leads the Cecchini circuit thanks to his tally of 25 goals and 25 assists in 31 games.
His stay in Blainville-Boisbriand began during the 2020-2021 season; he then participated in his first 22 games in the QMJHL.
Some four years later, Fauchon totaled 226 regular season games in the colors of the Armada.
Still according to Stéphane Leroux, Fauchon is not the only player across the league who has already been informed of an upcoming transaction.
Thus, forward Maël Lavigne will also move to the Océanic, from the Victoriaville Tigres, while another forward player, Émile Ricard, will be sent from Cape Breton to Chicoutimi.
