| Organizational Comments: Red Wings GM Ken Holland: "Very impressed with his skill level, He's a great skater. He's learned to play better defensively. He played about 30 minutes a night. He's one of those guys who can skate all night and day because he never needs to come off the ice." |
| What GRC says: Fall 2011: An offensive defenseman with elite wheels, Fournier whill have a lot of work ahead of him to learn how to play defense. He can move around the ice like Paul Coffey and should be an ace on the powerplay if he plays in GR this season. Fournier is currently recovering from shoulder surgery. |
