Videotron Player of the Week | Benjamin Lelièvre
The latest Videotron Player of the Week in the QMJHL is Blainville-Boisbriand Armada goaltender Benjamin Lelièvre. In a pair of games, the 19-year-old from St-Philippe-de-la-Prairie, Quebec went a perfect 2-0-0-0 with a 1.48 GAA, a shutout and a .954% save percentage as the Armada won twice in three chances over the weekend.
On Friday night at home, Lelièvre made 28 saves, including all nine in the third period, allowing the Armada to rally from three one-goal deficits before emerging with a 4-3 overtime triumph over the Rimouski Océanic. It was Lelièvre’s first home ice victory as a member of the Armada.
In Gatineau on Sunday afternoon, the third-year netminder kicked things up a level, stopping all 34 shots he faced in a 2-0 win over the Olympiques. It was Lelièvre’s second career QMJHL shutout and earned him first star accolades on the day.
Sunday’s victory in Gatineau improved Lelievre’s record to 4-4-0-0 on the year. Acquired from the Québec Remparts in August, the 2023 fourth rounder is currently on pace to set new career bests in GAA (3.13) and save percentage (.904%).
