While it’s easy to say St. Gelais was Seacoast’s most effective and efficient forward after finishing atop the team lead in scoring with 5 points in 4 games, it was how he was productive that made the most intrigued about his developmental runway. While he certainly doesn’t lack in individual skill, St. Gelais is a player who knows how to use his teammates to create small advantages all over the ice. He was using give and go’s to consistently get himself into space, divert attention away from himself and get off shots from dangerous of the ice both off the rush and off the cycle. When he wanted to, he could beat defenders in one on one situations either by driving wide around them with speed or cutting across their hands laterally to generate a bit of space with the puck to get a shot off from the interior. What set him apart from the rest of his teammates was his high-end shooting mechanics that allowed him to pick corners from distance and be a threat to score from all over the offensive zone. His release is quick and deceptive, which makes it hard for goaltenders to read the puck as it comes off his stick while it also pops off his blade with an ample amount of velocity. He’s definitely one of the better shooters I’ve seen thus far for the 2025 QMJHL draft, which along with his inclusive and detail-oriented game could see him become one of the better offensive players in this year’s class.
