«We wish good luck to three former players!
Good luck to Arnaud Durandeau in Russia!

- Laval Rocket
We wish them all the best with their new teams.
Alex-Olivier Voyer, 25 years old, from Sherbrooke, is a 6-foot-2, 192-pound forward.
He tallied 2 points in 8 games with the Laval Rocket, and 44 points in 61 games with the Trois-Rivières Lions in 2023-24. It's a significant loss for them.
John Parker-Jones, 24 years old, is a giant at 6-foot-8 and 235 pounds. He played a few games with the Habs' affiliate in 2023-2024 and added 90 penalty minutes in Trois-Rivières.
Arnaud Durandeau, 25 years old and from Montreal, was acquired by Kent Hughes via trade (from the New Jersey Devils) for forward Nathan Légaré in March 2024. He recorded 6 points in 10 games with the Laval Rocket.
Three good players who will have new opportunities ahead of them!
