MONTREAL ACQUIRES 20 YEAR OLD DEFENSEMAN FRANCIS MEILLEUR

The Montreal Juniors made a big splash on the trade front early this morning as they acquired offensive defenseman Francis Meilleur from the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles in exchange for a 6th round draft pick in 2012.

Meilleur is an average sized player listed at 5'11" and 180lbs and has played 3 seasons in Cape Breton. Last year Meilleur scored 6 goals and 36 assists in 68 games played. He also earned good marks on defense as he boasted a plus/minus rating of +26.
