On Friday, the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) issued an indefinite suspension for Halifax Mooseheads forward and Nashville Predators prospect Zachary L’Heureux over a fan-involved incident.
The incident in question happened Wednesday night after the Mooseheads fell 3-2 to the Gatineau Olympiques in a shootout. On his way off the ice, L’Heureux was alleged to have engaged verbally with a 16-year-old Olympiques fan and attempted to spear or jab him with his stick multiple times. On-ice officials quickly intervened.
Per the Nashville Post, the 16-year-old’s father noted there were no injuries, and it does not appear that L’Heureux’s stick made contact with the child.
