Halifax Mooseheads General Manager Cam Russell acquired overage forward Samuel Rousseau from Rouyn-Noranda on Monday in exchange for a 5th round draft pick in 2026.
"We are proud to welcome Samuel to the team. His proven leadership and depth of experience will strengthen our work and elevate what we can achieve together," Russell said.
Rousseau started the season in the BCHL with the Victoria Grizzlies and scored 30 points in 24 games with 16 goals and 14 assists. The St-Eustache, QC native is a former 12th round pick of the Huskies and played 159 career regular season games in Rouyn-Noranda over parts of four seasons. He has 54 career points in the QMJHL.
