Seems to have a very short stocky build, we'll see if he can grow to around his brothers height

[Dr Pepper]

Saw the last name and it had me wonder if he's any relation to 2020 Dallas draftee Remi Poirier

Stars sign goaltender Remi Poirier to three-year, entry-level contract | Dallas Stars

The 20-year-old netminder has a record of 17-6-4 in 29 games this season for the Gatineau Olympiques of the QMJHL

He is the brother of Flames prospect Jeremie

Yeah I got that part, just wasn't sure if Remi was any relation as well. Cousin, perhaps.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Now 2 goals and 1 primary apple in his preseason game #2

 

[Artorius Horus T]

[Lavar Ball]

Hat trick in his first career game

Hat trick in his first career game

Damn he looks small but fast

Damn he looks small but fast

He might eventually get bigger than 5'8. His brother Jeremie is 6'1.

Yep the skill is there but the question has been about the size - if he can sniff 6’0”… WATCH OUT

 

[SergeConstantin74]

Poirier is the 10th QMJHL player to score a hat trick in his first game. 3 of them, Poirier, Crosby and Leroux, were only 16. Others were older.

Yep the skill is there but the question has been about the size - if he can sniff 6’0”… WATCH OUT

We'll see. Jeremie was already 6'0 at 16 though.

 

[Frk It]

Hat trick in his first career game

Kid looks like a scorer.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

4 goals, 5 points in first 3 games, not too bad.

 

[Lavar Ball]

He returned from injury with a bang tonight - two goals (his fifth and sixth of the season), Up to 8 points in 7 games

Including this beauty:

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

He's very exciting. It's just his size is worrying for how he tries to play. Tries to dangle every player and tries to get everything out of his stick-handling with cut backs and fakes. He has great edge-work, but he also looks like the type of player that holds onto the puck too long and thats often a problem for smaller skill players. Really good stick-skills, more of a shooter than passer but very good at both, he has speed. A lot to like. Maybe over-handles the puck a little too much. The main problem will be his size.

His brother is pretty tall. Over 6'0. If Justin has a growth spurt, he'll be a first round pick. If not, he still might due to his offensive potential.
