Jérémie Minville Named Vidéotron Player of the Week
December 30, 2024 - Quebec Maritimes Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) News Release
The latest player to earn Videotron Player of the Week honors is Gatineau Olympiques winger Jérémie Minville. In a pair of wins, the 20-year-old from Drummondville, Quebec scored four times and added an assist to help the Olympiques pull themselves squarely into the race for the final playoff spots as the season's second half begins.
On Saturday afternoon at home, Minville and the O's showed no signs of rust coming off the holiday break. The overager scored once and added an assist on the game's insurance goal in Gatineau's 6-3 victory over the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada. For his efforts, Minville was named the game's second star.
The next afternoon in Drummondville, Minville came back to his hometown and put on a show, accounting for all the Olympiques' offense. His third goal of the game, scored 27 seconds into overtime, produced a 3-2 triumph for Gatineau over the Voltigeurs. The Olympiques' captain was the obvious choice for first star of the game, after recording his fourth career QMJHL hat trick.
A fourth-year veteran, Minville has produced 38 points in 33 games while continuing to refine his game in all three zones. He announced last week that he will pursue his hockey and academic career with Bowling Green University after committing for the 2025-26 season.
