Recently departed Blainville-Boisbriand Armada overage goaltender Remi Delafontaine has taken his talents to the University of New Brunswick for the remainder of the 2024-25 season.

Delafontaine, 20, had an .895 over 18 games with the Armada this season -- joining the team via trade from the Chicoutimi Saguenéens for a sixth this off-season.

He was recently dropped from the Armada after the trade deadline, with the acquisition of goaltender Felix Hamel from the Shawinigan Cataractes.
