Fifteen QMJHlers were moved yesterday as the trading window opened. Here's a small summation of all of the trades that happened.
Charles-Edward Gravel to Saint John
The Saint John Sea Dogs have made a splash, acquiring goaltender Charles-Edward Gravel from the Baie-Comeau Drakkar for a 2027 4th and a 2027 5th.
Gravel, 20, is coming off a split season with the Drakkar and the Armada where he posted a .909 save percentage over 51 games.
It's clear that the Drakkar are making room for 2025 NHL Draft eligible, Lucas Beckman to take the starting role.
Jayden Lazare to the Titan
The Acadie-Bathurst Titan pick up 17-year old defenseman Jayden Lazare from the Baie-Comeau Drakkar for a 2025 2nd round pick and a 2026 5th.
The former 3rd rounder in 2023 has yet to play a game in the QMJHL, but had 37 points (6+31) in 46 games in the Quebec AAA league.
Thomas Chafe to Baie-Comeau
The Drakkar have added former OHL right winger Thomas Chafe from the Gatineau Olympiques in exchange for their 2025 4th round pick.
The 19-year old center is coming off a 15 point season (7+8) over 62 games with the Olympiques.
Justin Lemay to the Phoenix
The Shawinigan Cataractes have parted ways with defender Justin Lemay, dealing him to Sherbrooke for a 2026 4th round pick.
Lemay, 18, is coming off a 1-point (1+0), 30 game season
Pier-Etienne Cloutier to Moncton
The Moncton Wildcats have acquired 6-foot-4 left winger Pier-Etienne Cloutier from the Quebec Remparts, in exchange for a 2025 fifth round pick.
Cloutier, 18, is a checking forward who potted 21 points (11+10) with the Remparts last season over 58 games and will look to bolster an already promising Wildcats team.
Mavrick Brunet to the Titan
The Acadie-Bathurst Titan pick up former 3rd round pick Mavrick Brunet from the Shawinigan Cataractes for a 2026 5th rounder.
The 17-year old centerman has played in just six games in the QMJHL over the last two seasons, scoring 2 points. Last year, he mostly played in the Quebec AAA league where he notched 36 points (10+26) in 40 games.
Mathis Langevin to Sherbrooke
The Phoenix have added 6-foot-1 goaltender Mathis Langevin for a 2027 6th rounder from Shawinigan.
The 18-year old had an .872 over 7 games with the Cataractes last season.
Samuel Vachon to Victoriaville
The Victoriaville Tigres have added 19-year old left winger Samuel Vachon from the Chicoutimi Saguenéens for a 6th rounder in 2025.
Vachon is coming off a 9 point season (6+3) over 49 games.
Mathys Routhier to Baie-Comeau
The Baie-Comeau Drakkar have added goaltender Mathys Routhier for a 2026 7th round pick.
The 6-foot-2 goalie should replace Charles-Edward Gravel's spot, but perhaps not his role. Routhier, 19, had an .879 save percentage over 20 games last season.
Lincoln Waugh to Halifax
The Mooseheads have acquired 18-year old defenseman Lincoln Waugh from the Cape Breton Eagles for a 2026 7th.
Waugh played in 18 games with the Eagles, notching 3 points (2+1). He also played in the Maritime Junior Hockey League where he had 15 points (3+12) in 19 games with the Summerside West Capitals.
Felix Ouellet to the Phoenix
The Sherbrooke Phoenix have added right winger Felix Ouellet from the Gatineau Olympiques in exchange for a 9th round pick in 2027.
Ouellet, 17, played in 44 games with the Olympiques last year, netting 6 points (3+3).
Nathaniel Harvey to Val-d'Or
The Victoriaville Tigres have dealt forward Nathaniel Harvey to the Val-d'Or Foreurs in exchange for a 2026 9th round pick.
The 18-year old centerman had four points (1+3) in 45 games with the Tigres last season.
