2004-05 Halifax QMJHL 65 27 23 50 51 12 4 5 9 8

Notes: The hallmarks to Bernier’s game are twofold: being a big body and scoring goals. Bernier is not only big, but is very strong, and is a presence along the boards as well as in front of the net, either winning battles for the puck by simply overpowering his opponents, or banging home rebounds in the goal crease.

Notes: Stuart is a big, mean, strong, stay at home defenseman. He has displayed good mobility for a man of his size and should be able to keep up with PHL forwards when he makes that jump. He is a naturally born leader and doesn’t take it for granted. He is a workhorse of a defenseman who gives 110 percent every shift he steps on the ice.
