The players will be selected in advance by the NHL Central Scouting. “At BFL CANADA, we are proud to partner with the QMJHL and support the Prospects Game, an event that perfectly embodies our values of collaboration, integrity and excellence. Highlighting the next generation of hockey talent and contributing to the development of young players aligns naturally with our commitment to sport, our passion for hockey, and our involvement in the communities we serve across the country,” said Barry F.

We are proud to offer these young players a first-class showcase in a premier arena.” “The Gatineau Olympiques are a historic franchise, and we are very pleased to collaborate with them to present this prestigious event,” added QMJHL Commissioner Mario Cecchini. “The Centre Slush Puppie has become a benchmark facility in our league. We look forward to fans discovering or rediscovering it while watching our top 2027 prospects in person!” Last October, Team Lafleur defeated Team Crosby 6-5 in a shootout, with the game-winning goal scored by Maddox Dagenais of the Québec Remparts.
