Bork!!!

 

[RealityBytes]

Well, we do need a Bourque.

 

[c3z4r]

Another swedish chef?

 

[sventington]

excellent. We need playoff scoring.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

He shall henceforth be known as the new Bork.

 

[Ezpz]

Disappeared in the playoffs. Will fit right in.

At 6-foot, 184 pounds, Bourque has adequate size to play on the blue line, but when paired with Morin, there's a lot of things he doesn't have to worry about with the 6-foot-7, 225-pound Morin patrolling the corners.

Bourque is a solid puck-moving defenseman with a good but not great shot. He's a player who can log big minutes and plays with a lot of heart. He was part of the equation that helped the Rimouski Oceanic get to the playoff round only to lose to the host Quebec Remparts.

In a breakout year, Bourque scored 10 goals and 38 points in 68 games. He'll build on that, and that's why he has a chance to get drafted in the third or fourth round of the draft.

Decent size, nice stats, local boy, late round, good pick.

 

[Wats]

Best Q player available?

 

[TYLENOL]

Sweet, another good looking prospect!

 

[le_sean]

Was hoping to trade up for Andong Song, but this will do.

 

[habsterr]

good potential, decent size I think its a good pick.

 

[FF de Mars]

Nice project for a 6th round pick.

 

[MXD]

Josh Gorges upside. Which is totally awesome for a 6th rounder.

 

[Number 57]

Good!

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Josh Gorges upside. Which is totally awesome for a 6th rounder.

Remember when Ellis was supposed to be a better Gorges?

 

[bleuetbio]

Not a bad pick, there's somes guys I would take instead but not bad at all for a 6th rounder

 

[Ghetto Sangria]

Even though he's young looking you can tell he's going to be a stud at age 20. The perfect amount of confidence to develop his game and snag a gf before his time in MTL. Well done timmins.

 

[Phil Parent]

Another pretty boy.

 

[RAWisJericho]

Media: QUÉBÉCOIS! QUÉBÉCOIS! QUÉBÉCOIS! PARRRRRRTY.

 

[sventington]

yeah

 

[Raimu]

This is a steal where we got him. Bourque is a really good player.

 

[sharks9]

Seems like a really solid pick for a 6th rounder

 

[Sweeney]

Saw him play live a lot of time, was my second favorite Rimouski dman next to Kostalek and ahead of Morin
