The QMJHL’s final Videotron Player of the Week for the 2024-25 season is Moncton Wildcats defenseman Etienne Morin. In two games, the 20-year-old from Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Quebec scored once and added four assists as the Wildcats went 2-0-0-0 to complete their historically successful regular season.
On Friday night at home, Morin produced a pair of first period assists to help generate a lead the Cats would not relinquish. By the end of the night, Morin had recorded a +2 rating and the Wildcats had earned a 7-2 victory over the Halifax Mooseheads.
On Saturday afternoon in Bathurst, Morin played a key role in a back-and-forth affair to conclude the regular season. After chipping in a pair of assists, the fourth-year veteran scored his 14th goal of the season in the third period, tying the Wildcats’ franchise record for career goals by a defenceman with 55. Morin’s contributions led to a 5-4 overtime triumph over the Titan in which the Wildcats set new team records with 53 wins and 108 points on the season.
Morin concludes the campaign with 58 points in 62 games, good for third overall among all QMJHL blueliners. A second-round selection of the Calgary Flames at the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, Morin also holds the Wildcats record for most career regular season points by a defenseman with 212.
