Mar. 30th: From a series of tweets from Mike McMahon of Warrior Rink Rat

Mar. 28th: This 5’11, 180 lb, native of Paris, France has been on the radar for quite some time, especially after his 45 point (in 34 games) season with Merrimack College last year (Div. 1, NCAA). After being named the Division 1 Rookie of the year, he was pursued by many NHL teams only to return for another year with Merrimack.

His hands are like butter, using them to deke the pants off any who oppose him. The 21 year old forward had another great season with 14 goals and 44 points in only 32 games.
