The players were on their way to the city for the upcoming QMJHL season when their vehicle was involved in a frightening accident. Thankfully, the team announced that the players sustained only minor injuries.
This was a scary situation of course, but as an organization, we are relieved no one got seriously hurt. Right now, we are awaiting further updates from doctors, and we will take the situation one day at a time. We are grateful that the occupants from the other vehicles involved were not seriously injured as well, and we thank the medical professionals at St. Martha's Regional Hospital and the local first responders for their care. - Sylvain Couturier
