Christophe Lalonde reminds many of former star Gabriel Bourque

"Lalonde is one of 11 newcomers on Moncton's roster. This injection of new blood and the fact the Wildcats are missing three veterans to NHL training camps leaves an unsettling effect early in the schedule.

Lalonde points out that he's enjoying his new surroundings. The native of St. Eustache, Que. raves about the Wildcats coaching staff, athletic therapist Graham Black and the way the club treats its players.

"There's a lot more gym time and off-ice workouts here," he said. "There's a lot more meetings. It was a little soft in Lewiston. It's a lot more structured here. We have a great gym and everything we need to help us.

"I was very happy when Moncton chose me in the dispersal draft. It's one of the top three organizations in the league. It's a great place for me to grow up in and learn the game.""
