The QMJHL’s director of player safety said Zachary L’Heureux’s gesture to fans after a game on Feb. 8 ‘simply can’t be tolerated’ by the league
Halifax Mooseheads forward Zachary L’Heureux has been suspended for 10 games by the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, the league’s director of player safety Eric Chouinard announced Wednesday.
L’Heureux, 19, had been suspended indefinitely after a video posted on social media showed the player directing his stick towards fans following a Feb. 8 game in Gatineau, Que. Chouinard said L’Heureux’s gesture “simply can’t be tolerated” by the league and noted the player is a repeat offender who had been previously suspended “on several occasions.”
L’Heureux, a first-round pick of the Nashville Predators in the 2021 NHL Draft, has scored 18 goals and had 19 assists in 24 games this season with the Mooseheads.
