5:00 p.m. MT – QMJHL: Val-d’Or (Jakob Pelletier) vs. Drummondville [QMJHL Live]

The game to watch here is probably Val-d’Or’s, as Pelletier returns to junior after capturing silver earlier this month at the World Juniors. The Foreurs also added Team Canada’s Jordan Spence and come out of the Q’s break as perhaps their most dangerous team. Based on the available information, Val-d’Or’s games are taking place in a bubble environment in Drummondville this weekend, and then they’ll move onto a different bubble for next week’s games.
