TROIS-RIVIÈRES – The fifth training camp in the history of the Trois-Rivières Lions, the ECHL affiliate of the Montreal Canadiens (NHL) and the Laval Rocket (AHL), begins today at Colisée Vidéotron. This year, 30 players — including 18 forwards, 9 defensemen, and 3 goaltenders — will hit the ice over the coming days.
Among the 30 participants, eight players have received invitations with the hope of earning a roster spot for the upcoming season: forwards Métis Roelens, Chiwetin Blacksmith, Davide Gaeta, and Lukas Jirousek, along with defensemen Phil Caron, Dustin Perillat, Noah Massie and Jonathan Pereira.
Fifteen players hold one-way contracts with the Lions: forwards Andrew Coxhead, Anthony Beauregard, Anthony Beauchamp, Anthony Poulin, Cédric Desruisseaux, Julien Paillé, Logan Nijhoff, Morgan Adams-Moisan, Tommy Cormier, and Tyler Hylland; defensemen Emmett Serensits, Jacob Paquette, Wyatt McLeod, and Landon Fuller; as well as goaltender Vincent Duplessis.
In addition, several skaters are under AHL-ECHL contracts with the Laval Rocket: forwards Will Dineen, Egor Goriunov, Israel Mianscum, and Mark Estapa; defenseman Charles Martin; and goaltenders Hunter Jones and Benjamin Gaudreau.
