Baie-Comeau draft eligible players
| Emile Chouinard | Baie-Comeau Drakkar | QMJHL | R | D | 6’4″ | 187 | Baie-Comeau Drakkar | Québec, QC | 2003 | Not yet rated |
The big defenseman made a number of safe, low-risk and effective plays in the defensive zone. He made plays under pressure, like the play in the first period when he was on the receiving end of a big hit in the corner, but still maintained possession of the puck and made a zone-clearing pass. Rating: C+
| Julien Hebert | Baie-Comeau Drakkar | QMJHL | L | F | 5’11” | 187 | Baie-Comeau Drakkar | 2019 | Cap Saint Ignace, QC | 2003 | 2020-2021: C+ |
Hebert showed a commitment to being a two way player in this game. In the first period he hustled back from a scoring chance to break up a Rimouski odd-man rush in the neutral zone. It was a nice takeaway that turned the play back to the offensive zone for the Drakkar. In the third period he utilized his speed to get open in the slot and scored the game- tying goal. Rating: B
| Isaac Dufort | Baie-Comeau Drakkar | QMJHL | L | F | 6’1″ | 161 | Baie-Comeau Drakkar | Laval, QC | 2003 | Not yet rated |
