Québec's recruits had barely arrived in the city that already management wanted them to understand just how awesome their city was and how it was above the rest of the SMJHL's other homes. Hungover as hell from celebrating their draft, the rookies were taken on a bus tour of the city and force fed poutine for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Although poutine is known as a hungover remedy, it can become deadly to the uninitiated if you start mixing weird shit in it and management chose the most unappetizing flavours they could. The weakest among the players couldn't handle the mixture of grease and left over nausea from the day before so they found themselves begging their new bosses not to take them to the practice rink so early in their young careers. Of course management didn't care and took them to the rink after to meet their new teammates. The veterans on the team, having gone through something similar, also had no pity and thought it was hilarious to do everything in their power to make the rookies' first day as Citadelles miserable. Although the rookies didn't find it amusing, they will probably love inflicting the same thing on their new teammates next season.
