Coach: Jamie Belleau (fourth year)
Last year’s record: 17-2-2 (Class A runners-up)
Returning players: Seniors — Matt Therrien (F), Devon Beland (F), Desmond Gagne (F), Jake Bergeron (F), Matt Melanson (D), Brandon Tiner (D); Sophomores — Kyle Lemelin (F), Patrick Deblois (D).
Key losses: Cam Poussard, Sam Cloutier, Ben Wigant, Colt Steele, Scott Ouellette, Cody Dussault.
Promising newcomers: Seniors — Shawn O’Connell (D), Stefan Vallee (F), Devon Bilodeau (F), David Cusson (F); Juniors — Cam Marquis (F), Bryan Hall (F), Evan Bourassa (G), Brian Wigant (G); Sophomores — Evan Gosselin (F), Matt Poulin (F), Ethan Melvin (D), Max Bolduc (D); Freshman — Keegan Deslauriers.
Outlook: This team may have lost more top-end talent than any other team in the state in either class. But the beauty of being Lewiston High School is the depth in the program. That depth will be put to the test, particularly in net, where Bourassa and Wigant have the unenviable task of following Poussard. The team can skate, and it can defend, and it wouldn;t shock anyone to see the Blue Devils right back in the mix for the Eastern crown this season.
Coach’s comment: “We lost a lot, however we have a solid mix of upperclassmen who saw limited playing time on varsity last year and a group of talented young players.” — Coach Jamie Belleau
