Press Release

Sydney – The Cape Breton Screaming Eagles have acquired 17-year-old defenseman Loïk Léveillé from the Chicoutimi Saguenéens in exchange for a 2016 first round pick. The draft pick was one of three first round picks that Cape Breton received from Chicoutimi in September in a deal that saw the Screaming Eagles trade 2013 first overall pick Nicolas Roy to the Saguenéens.
