The hope with 12 lungs who sees himself with Arber Xhekaj

BUFFALO | His team’s top goalscorer and third-top goalscorer by all defensemen in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.

In terms of individual performance, Quebec’s Étienne Morin could hardly have asked for better this season.

A true pillar of the Moncton Wildcats’ defense, the left-handed guard is known for his composure on the ice, his handling of the puck, his excellent wrist throw and… his excellent physical condition.

On the occasion of the NHL Combine that took place a few days ago, the young man explained to me in particular where this cardiovascular endurance came from, which in recent months has allowed him to put in more than 30 minutes per game very regularly without showing the slightest sign to show tiredness. And all this despite the fact that a single-core had knocked him out. a few days before the start of the training camp.

During our interview, Morin, who the director of NHL Central Scouting recently dubbed “the best defenseman of the class of 2023,” also explained what the Montreal Canadiens meant to him and readily agreed to reveal the name of the defenseman he is playing with he himself plays, in Montreal.
