Jimmy Bonneau has always had a solid reputation as one of the tougher players in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.

While the winger still maintains a physical presence, he’s being noticed for other reasons.

“We got Jimmy to where we wanted to get him, which is a big, powerful player that can play regularly,” said head coach Alain Vigneault. “He’s improved his skill level, he’s improved his overall speed and quickness on the ice. He can be a threat out there, not just against the other team’s tough guys.”<br>
Bonneau has scored twice and set up two others, all coming on the recent three-game Atlantic Division road swing.

Maybe now that Jimmy Bonneau has turned into a scoring machine, we can turn Corey Locke into an enforcer!

;D

Seriously though it is good news to see a kid improving as he matures.

Clarification:

When I said it's nice to see a kid improve as he matures, I was referring to Alain Vignault.
