I am also curious about Stapley. He did lead the team in scoring last yearPierrick Dubé signed with Washington. No info on Ryan Francis and Brett Stapley.
With the forwards logjam in Laval and Montreal, it might be the case that guys like Stapley and Francis are looking for better AHL opportunities.I am also curious about Stapley. He did lead the team in scoring last year
Maybe those will come following tryouts at the rookie camp? As I noted earlier, Montreal will need a lot of bodies for the tournament in Buffalo, as most prospects are playing in Europe or the NCAA and won't be there.I like those sign but I would like them to sign more 20 years old Q players
Would be even better if they brought back Francis and Stapely. Understand why they would be looking for NHL/AHL deals but considering both are still unsigned , perhaps they'll circle back to a familiar team in the end.The Lions of TR are much improved and I hope it will appear in the standings and in the stands
Everybody needs to sit and get an agreement. Players have lot more exposure in ECHL and it will bite the LNAH long term to play the Lions like they are.In the 2023 LNAH draft, Trepanier was taken 1st overall and William Lemay was taken 2nd overall. 3R ended up signing both of them.
You included the 7 guys who got Qualifying offers.Currently, the Lions of Trois Rivieres could look like this:
Jones-Montmigny-Beauregard
McKay-Guay-Novak
Chaulk-Lemay-Voyer

Trepanier
Breton-Hjorth
Welsh-Komuls
Kuzmeski-Dunn

Did they all sign?
Stapley signed with the Colorado Eagles. Having spent his college years at Denver, it's not surprise he ends up there.
Also, Laval signed Yaremko, but seeing as it's a two-way deal, 3R also make the announcement:
