Breaking: Another Quebecer Leaves the Canadiens' Organization
In the last few minutes, another Quebecer has decided to leave the Montreal Canadiens organization, and it is the forward from Drummondville, Danick Martel.
Indeed, the 28-year-old left-winger, who played with the Laval Rocket in the last two seasons, has signed a one-year contract with HPK Hämeenlinna in the Finnish top division (Liiga).
"I am excited to join HPK. I am really looking forward to seeing the crowd, as European fans are really intense. They are a part of the game. It will be a great experience in this city, which is located about 100 km north of the capital, Helsinki. I will settle in, and my partner, along with our dog, will join me later." - Danick Martel.
Undoubtedly, we can expect to see a completely different lineup on the ice at Place Bell next season. Knowing very well that several prospects from the organization will make their professional debut in 2023-2024, many veterans have decided to try their luck elsewhere by agreeing to terms with a new team.
During his time in Laval, Danick Martel collected 21 goals and 24 assists in 96 games, playing a crucial role in the team's playoff journey in 2021-2022 with 15 points (including 9 goals) in 15 games.
We wish him the best of luck with his new team!
