Logan Mailloux sends a clear message in his return against his former team, the Laval Rocket
Logan Mailloux ended up in an unusual situation this week, getting sent down by the Blues and making his Thunderbirds debut right away.
And who was waiting on the other side? The Laval Rocket - his former team.
It's the kind of story you couldn't make up!
Mailloux had just been sent down after a difficult stint in the NHL with St. Louis. And he got a bit of revenge against the Rocket.
Even without recording a point in the game, he helped his team win.
And for a player looking to rebuild his confidence, I think that matters a lot.
According to an article from TVA Sports, Mailloux had gone through some tough moments in St. Louis, with a minus-12 rating in nine games.
You could say he was simply looking for a fresh start.
And so far, he's found one.
A nice bit of revenge for Logan Mailloux against the Rocket
The Rocket never really found their rhythm in the game.
The Thunderbirds dominated from the start, with goals from Nikita Alexandrov, Hugh McGing, and Matt Luff.
Mailloux, for his part, played a simple, solid game, with one shot on goal.
According to observers, you could see in his attitude that he wanted to prove something.
Returning to the American League and facing his former team was a way to regain control.
I think it did him some good.
And honestly, beating your former club is always special.
Even if things didn't go well for him with the Habs, I hope he can bounce back!
