Here’s tidy work by a sixth-round draft pick: leading a development league in scoring. That’s what Caps’ prospect Mathieu Perreault is doing these days with Acadie Bathurst in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. All he did last season was win the Q’s MVP award.
And another Caps’ prospect in the Q, Francois Bouchard, isn’t far off Perreault’s pace.

It’s good that he’s doing well, but winning the MVP in the ‘Q’ isn’t as good a predictor of success as it might seem. There have been great ones like Crosby, Alex Radulov and Brad Richards who’ve won it but recent winners also include Jo?ɬ´l Perrault, Ramzi Abid, Dan Corso and Fr?ɬ©d?ɬ©ric Chartier.
The fact that Perreault won it before his last year of eligibility does count for a lot though.
I’m looking forward to both of these players playing for the Bears this spring during their run for another Calder Cup title. Hopefully they can provide the type of boost for the Bears that Carey Price provided for the Bulldogs last year.
