The Truro Bearcats are pleased to announce the signing of 2006 born defenceman Tristan St-Gelais.
The Frelighsburg, QC product is no stranger to the east coast as he previously attended Mount Academy in PEI during the 2022/23 season.
Last season, St-Gelais made the switch to Elite Hockey Academy in West Haven, Connecticut where he got to compete against some of the top teams in the United States. He led all defencemen on his team with 68 points in 72 games and was a league all-star.
Tristan most recently attended camp and started the year with the Fort McMurray Oil Barons of the AJHL putting up 3 points in 4 preseason games.
St-Gelais had this to say about joining the Bearcats “I’m super excited to play for the Bearcats this year. Fans can expect to see a two-way defenceman that’s good defensively, but can also create some offense.”
Welcome to Truro, Tristan!
