Unconfirmed by the Drakkar, but reports out of Baie-Comeau are saying the Boilard brothers, who both played for Salmon Arm of the BCHL last season, will report to training camp.

If so that's solid for them. Raoul will be one of the top 2006. Jules is an average 2004. Solid return for Gatineau who will get 2 1st picks and a 2nd for Raoul after drafting him in the 4th round in 2022. They also keep the 4th they got from BC for his rights.

What's the "hefty hefty" price tag?

What's the "hefty hefty" price tag? Like I said in my post, BC paid a 4th round pick to Gatineau for Raoul’s rights and they will pay 2 1st picks and a 2nd once he plays a game with them.

What changed? Seems odd that two guys going NCAA suddenly surface in Baie Comeau of all places … they don’t seem to be from there, I don’t think the Drake are gearing up for a huge run or anything … what am I missing?

Believe it has to do with Gregoire, think they go to his camp during the camp or something like that

Yeah 2 #1's and a 2 as a price requires context for sure. We've seen teams pay that for 4 months of an expiring player when contending. Seems like a fair price in this situation.

Way to much drama around this one for me. Committed to U.S, traded in the BCHL, now traded in the Q , seems like a reach for success that has not happened overnight and patience is not their strong suit. I would say if Raoul had played for Gatineau last season, it does not cost BC that price tag to get him now. Hope it works out for BC, but as of now, I like the deal for Gatineau.

Two 1sts, a 2nd, a 4th (and cash if he ever becomes NHL drafted) seemed "hefty" to me for a player drafted in the 4th round - but that doesn't make me right. It's all only opinion. Source - Nous Les Fans. Compensation for Jules Boilard would be in addition to that for Raoul - and he was actually drafted higher in the 4th round than Raoul was. I think I read that the return for him would be a 4th (also NLF). I can see the argument from the other side, but if Cam Russell had just traded two 1sts, a 2nd and a 4th for Raoul Boilard - or if Sylvain Couturier did - or if Ritchie Thibeau did - I think the thread might have a bit of a different tone - but just a guess. Hope all are enjoying the summer. Training camps open in three weeks - and the time is going to fly by. Again, the term that shocks me is "hefty hefty" not just hefty. I'm being serious not sarcastic. The price is on the higher side and definitely risky for Baie Comeau but their coach knows the kids well so he knows what he's gambling on. I wouldn't argue if someone said the price is hefty but hefty hefty to me requires a lot more than 2 1sts.

The same player saying they will report could go top 10 on the same draft day. A 4th round pick could be 24 hours from being worth 2 1sts if the player is good enough and willing to go to a specific team. Some other 4th round picks are happy to report and still worth a 4th rounder because thats where their talent puts them. They could be 10th round picks but be worth a 1st if willing to show up. Context matters way more than draft position.

seems like a good trade for all parties involved. Gatineau getting 3 higher end picks at the cost of a 4th rounder is nice to add to their rebuild.
Baie-Comeau likely contends next year then maybe? When Poirer, Boilard, Lanthier, etc. are all 18. Ciarlo could be a top goalie at 20 as well. Baie-Comeau isn't terrible on paper heading into this season by any means either.

There’s something else to this trade people are overlooking with this trade. The East division is wide open. Quebec is going to drop to the bottom and it’s sort of like Halifax this past season. Rimouski and BC might be a year ahead of schedule but it’s there for the taking. IMO either on of those 2 teams could have an easy path to at least the 3rd round. Does this trade put them slightly ahead now? I think it doesn’t hurt. It definitely helps them for the year after too.
