Goaltender Quentin Miller was selected by the Canadian in the fourth round of the 2023 draft.
We are talking about a Quebecer who was playing in the QMJHL at that time.
During the last season (23-24), Miller was traded from the Quebec Remparts to the Rimouski Océanic… But today we learned that he is leaving the QMJHL.
According to what Kevin Dubé from the Journal de Québec reports, Miller will continue his career in the BCHL (in the West).
And still according to the journalist, Miller will join the ranks of the Chilliwack Chiefs:
It is rather rare to see a QMJHL player leave the league to join the BCHL… Especially in the middle of the season.
But Quentin Miller had no as no more choice: he has not played since the start of the campaign due to an injury, and the Rimouski Océanic decided to make another call in December.
It’s boring in a sense for the goalie – who also plays music, let’s remember – because the Memorial Cup tournament will be presented in Rimouski next June.
But on the other hand, he had to find an alternative to be able to play and continue his development in front of the net.
Remember that Quentin Miller celebrated his 20th birthday last December and that he could make the jump to the professionals during the next campaign.
He was impressed by Cole Caufield’s shooting at his first training camp with the CH in 2023 and there, he must focus on his progress if he one day wants to have the chance to play in the National League.
This is why the option of playing in the BCHL, even if we are talking about a less good league than the Q, was on the table in his case.
In burst
– Well done.
– Lane Hutson likes to play at the Bell Centre.
– NHL goaltenders of the week. A little thought for Dobes anyway:
– He has contagious energy.
