Videotron Player of the Week | Brody Fournier (March 25, 2024)
The final Videotron Player of the Week for the 2023-24 QMJHL season is Saint John Sea Dogs winger Brody Fournier. In three home games, the 20-year-old from Lombardy, Ontario scored four times and added two assists as the Sea Dogs went 1-1-0-1 on the week, punching their ticket to the 2024 Gilles-Courteau Trophy Playoffs.
On Wednesday night, Fournier’s late third-period tally would loom large. The second-year forward’s 24th goal of the season would lead directly to the Dogs’ earning a valuable point in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Moncton Wildcats. Fournier, who also finished with a +1 rating, was named the game’s third star.
On Friday night, with his former teammates visiting TD Station, Fournier again propelled his club to value points in the standings. After assisting on the game’s opening goal just 36 seconds into the first, he would then tuck home the game-winner later in the frame as the Sea Dogs’ parlayed a 4-0 first period lead into a crucial 5-2 triumph over the Halifax Mooseheads.
On Saturday afternoon, the Sea Dogs went down to defeat at the hands of the Mooseheads by a score of 7-4. Despite the loss, Fournier did all he could to ensure Saint John was in a position to clinch a berth in the playoffs thanks to a two-goal, one-assist performance. When the dust settled, Fournier was the third star of the contest and the Dogs had reached the 2024 postseason, which they will open in Drummondville on Friday.
Fournier finished the campaign as the Sea Dogs’ leading scorer with 52 points, including 27 goals, in 70 games. He has proved a valuable addition to both the Mooseheads, who signed him as a free agent prior to the 2022-23 campaign, as well as the Dogs, who acquired him earlier in the season. Of his 40 career regular season goals, seven stood as game-winners.
