This is certainly excellent news for Galipeau, who was moving between Laval and Trois-Rivières over the last two seasons. There's no doubt that the experience gained by the defender in recent years will be an important asset for the young recruits who will join the Canadien's farm club next year.
The Quebecer became an important element in the Rocket's defensive brigade last season, amassing 9 points in 45 games. He also collected 15 points in 19 matches with the Trois-Rivières Lions in the ECHL.
