The Armada are stacking up, acquiring overage forward Mael Lavigne from the RImouski Océanic in exchange for a first round pick (originally from Rimouski), a fourth round pick and a sixth round pick--all from 2027.

Lavigne, 19, is coming off of a career high 49-point season (17+32) between the Victoriaville Tigres and the Rimouski Océanic. Notably, Lavigne was one of the biggest deadline acquisitions this season, getting dealt for a first and a fourth round pick. Scoring at an above a point-per-game rate on Victoriaville.

The Armada are hoping that his significant playoff experience and hopefully a rebound in production will get the team to the next level.
