Veilleux

 

Yannick Veilleux, LW

Shoots: L

Height: 6-2

Weight: 190

Born: 1993-02-22

Hometown:  St. Hipolite, PQ

Drafted: 2011 by St. Louis, 102nd overall

 

 

 

 

 

Observations:

 

January 2013- The big winger has been more consistent over the past month and should see a boost in production with some of the additions Moncton has made. Derek LeBlanc


November 2012- He dominated his fitness tests before the season but Veilleux has struggled with consistency this year. He’s still averaging a point a game but that includes a couple four and five point nights. – Derek LeBlanc

 

July 2012- Came over to Moncton from Shawinigan as part of the Brandon Gormley deal.

 

April, 2012- Veilleux had his most productive season to date in the QMJHL. He was a point a game player during the season and throughout the playoffs. He’s a big power forward who is very dangerous around the net. He has a great shot that he gets off quickly. He’s not the best skater but excels on the power play.

 

Fantasy Outlook: D+

Long-term project for the Blues with limited upside. Fringe player at best.
