he definitely has some obvious Armada/Rempart bias lol Why should he have Armada/Quebec bias? He's not working for a media owned by Quebecor. He could just not care about the Sea Dogs considering he's working for a local Quebec City newspapers and not a national outlet. As far as I know, he covered the story first, even before Saint John or NB reporters. Besides, the part about the playoffs is just stating a fact. Saying Lalancette has bias for Quebec is ridiculous considering he grew up as a Sags fan hating the Remparts! He does no doubt. Why throw a shot at a maritime team dating back to 2017 makes no sense. |

Stating a fact at the end of a news article is throwing a shot only for emotional fans. In one of his last articles he mentioned Remparts have missed the playoffs. That’s called stating a fact. |

And the previous article which was a combination of facts without analysis and baseless conjecture? |

We (Titans) swept Halifax in the playoffs thats a fact you dont see me stating it in articles because thats a shot at the team theres no point to do so it just shows how hes bias is all were saying. there isnt a player in the league who lost in the playoffs that year. |

He does. Doesn't forget to include a shot at the Dogs for not winning a playoff series since 2017 season (doesn't mention how one season was cancelled and another was a 3 team NB mini tournament to advance). He sure hates his Sea Dogs lol. he definitely has some obvious Armada/Rempart bias lol Lalancette no longer works for Québecor group, therefore has no link with either team. Also, the Armada has been sold in 2023; Québecor is now a minority shareholder while they still own the Remparts. |

I can understand why you would think there's a bias, but as it was stated, Lalancette does no longer work for a shareholding group linked to either team. Now, while he might be throwing a shot, which I doubt, he's still stating a fact. And I'm trying hard to find a link between both your statements (bias versus shot). As a journalist, he's just doing his work letting us know about Morin coming in Port City, isn't he? |

While this is true, even his LinkedIn still lists him as animateur and chroniqueur which would primarily be contract roles for Quebecor |

I've read it, quite quikly though, I admit. Had to go back a second time. I might be missing something, but it didn't strike me the article being without context. What did come to my mind looking for somekind of link regarding not winning a championship since 2017 and Stella would be Anthony being hired as AGM around the same time? |

Hes throwing a shot as he is stating a fact its clear 2017 has nothing to do with morin joinng the seasdogs 7 almost 8 years later? |

Stella was made AGM during the 2016-2017 season. Darryl Young was fired in August of 2016 and Georgie became GM. He made Stella his AGM. They inherited a championship team (other than Christmas trades, everything was in place). |

Saying Lalancette has bias for Quebec is ridiculous considering he grew up as a Sags fan hating the Remparts! Why take shots at Saint-John? Morin wouldn't report to Blainville but reports to SJ? Idk, I just think if it was the other way around he wouldn't be taking a shot at Blainville if he didn't originally report to Saint John. Maybe he's not biased overall but just seems a bit odd. But like you mentioned if he was a Sags fan maybe I'm just completely off with my assumption. |

I'm reading the first piece from Lalancette and nowhere does he even mention 2017 in the article. The whole thing is built aroung Stella being fired. Morin is mentionned as a good news while arriving at the same time this is happening. |

Can't help but wonder if this is a one year stop for him and he attends BU with the probable upcoming rule changes. If so, does he become a trade chip at the Christmas deadline? Hard to pinpoint a value for a 1-year 17 year old rental if that is the case. BU pushed back Morin's first season from 2025-2026 to 2026-2027. I guess his struggles in the USHL might have played a part in BU's decision, while BU pushing back his entrance might have played a part in his decision to leave for the CHL. That info shows why this move makes sense. This all continuing into a bad 2nd half might have seen him removed from BU's plans beyond 26-27 leaving him in a tough spot. As well as likely falling off the NHL draft radar. Playing well in the Q is the absolute best way to change the narrative. |
