Homegrown leadership at the forefront

Several players among the 28 listed signed one-way contracts with the Lions during the summer. Among them is the Lions' new #32: La Tuque native Morgan Adams-Moisan. The forward is returning to the Mauricie region, having played his M18AAA hockey with the Estacades de Trois-Rivières. "Mo" was the captain of the (Edmonton Oilers affiliate) Fort Wayne Komets last season.

Anthony Beauchamp will also be aiming to make his mark on the Lions' offense. The Thurso, Quebec native joined head coach Ron Choules' squad during the summer after spending his first three professional seasons with the Greenville Swamp Rabbits. "Beauch" was an assistant captain with Greenville last year.

The Cormier brothers are reunited

The Cormier brothers - Tommy and Xavier - agreed to terms with the Lions during the summer. While Tommy will be making his professional debut, it's a different story for Xavier, who has played in more than 100 ECHL games.

Tommy, who's 21, comes from the QMJHL's Victoriaville Tigres, with whom he played the past three years. He potted 40 goals in the 2022-23 season, and 30 in the 2023-24 campaign.

Several "veterans" are returning

Head coach Choules will be able to count on several "veterans," including the team's top scorers in the past two years: Anthony Beauregard and Jakov Novak.

On defence, Brycen Martin - who played in every Lions' game in 2023-24 - will also be back.

And one of the heroes at the end of the 2023-24 season - goaltender Zachary Émond - will also be back with the team.
