Yanic Perreault spent 14 years in the National Hockey League, for a total of 859 games, including 224 with the Montreal Canadiens. Perreault was one of the best in his profession in the faceoff circle, a true expert. He was also a very honest scorer, scoring no less than 20 goals seven times in his career.
The young player has scored 18 points this year in 23 games, led by Joël Bouchard with the San Diego Gulls. Then, tonight, as the Ducks compete against the New York Rangers, the youngster will play his first game in the NHL.
