This is great news.

 

[ItsAllPartOfThePlan]

What are the chances he makes the team? Got to be slim I'd imagine

 

[DL44]

I was hoping/expecting this after reading about his increased role this season.. captain.. only drafted player on the team.. blah blah..

Can't wait to watch him in person one day...

 

[NuxFan09]

Good stuff! Classic example of a genuine quality player on a terrible QMJHL team. Depending on how he does going forward maybe we can chalk this up to more good scouting by Benning and the scouts.

 

[Rotting Corpse*]

What the .... that is a really weird and creepy CGI.

 

[Scholarships]

Great news.

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Nice hair though.

 

[MS]

Good news.

He'll be very much a longshot to make the team (Chabot is already a returning player so there doesn't need to be a token Q defender) but if nothing else it's a good experience and confidence builder.

 

[Snatcher Demko]

Longshot but a confidence booster like this, as well as a change of scenery should give him the mind-set to have a strong year.

 

[kanucks25]

This is nice I guess he played well despite being on a terrible team.

Nice hair though.

Let's make another prospect ranking poll thread... hair edition.

Boeser and Brisebois can battle it out for top spot.

 

[The Iron Goalie]

Very underrated imo. Has a good chance, as long as he plays well at camp/beginning of the season.

 

[Huggy]

another wenning move

 

[M2Beezy]

This. Congrats Brisebois i think could be another hidden gem and good job by Benning at what he knows best: Depth Drafting

 

[Samzilla]

great for breezebwaahhh.

 

[DL44]

A lot of big names as competion...

Left handed D:
Brisebois, Chabot, Chychrun, Bean, Girard, Lauzon, Myers, MVS

Right handed D:
Fabbro, Juulsen, Roy, Spencer, Foote, Hobbs

 

[Bitz and Bites]

Nice to see him get recognized as a top tier defender despite his circumstances.
Being that he wasn't a first round pick,he'll probably get Corrado'd by the TC brass but getting an invite is great and he can at least practice with other top players.

 

[lawrence]

huge accomplishment, to get recognized by team Canada, while playing on a bad team, in the QMJHL not known (at least the past half decade) for quality defencemens. Huuuuuuuuge accomplishment. I'm already happy to say he almost made team Canada.

I think he has a good chance if he has a strong start with his new team. It will be fun to see him and PLD go for gold.

Good for "Gilliam".

Have to imagine his chances at cracking the roster are fairly slim at this point, but you never know. It's good experience and shows he's at least on Hockey Canada's radar as a solid prospect. He's been a good footsoldier for them previously.


Really though, i'm probably more excited/interested just to see how he does with the change of scenery after being dealt to Charlottetown for this coming season in the Q. Should be a very different role and situation for him there.

these are the invitees for defencemens.

Jake Bean
Guillaume Brisebois
Thomas Chabot
Jakob Chychrun
Dante Fabbro
Cal Foote
Samuel Girard
Connor Hobbs
Noah Juulsen
Jérémy Lauzon
Philippe Myers
Jérémy Roy
Matthew Spencer
Mitchell Vande Sompel

the advantage right now, is that he is older then half the guys.

 

[clunk]

No way he makes it, but good for even being invited.

Maybe he is 2nd round worthy after all? Would be nice if the Lack trade gained Nhl player. Would also mean Benning is looking like he is 6 for 6 in the first 3 rounds of the draft. Vitanen McCann Demko Tryamkin Boeser and Brisebois. The first 5 look like sure things. I have never seen the guy play but good sign.

 

[Bad News Benning]

every time i see his face this is the first thought that pops into my head
