When Nicolas Deslauriers was acquired in a trade for Zach Redmond in October, it looked like the 27 year old forward would be one of the veteran leaders in the locker room for the Laval Rocket. Through 14 games, it was looking highly likely that he wouldn’t even become one of those leaders for the Rocket, he struggled with point production (five points in 14 games), and generally was a non-factor in many games. Then on November 15th Deslauriers got the call for NHL duty over Daniel Carr, and he would never again see the AHL in this season.
