Durandeau has shown offensive ability in the past, but his two-way game seems to have improved with the Halifax Mooseheads.
Arnaud Durandeau to NYI 165th overall. Maybe not as offensive as i thought he would be coming out of midget but 2way game has improve.

Durandeau is likely to continue to play in the QMJHL for the next two seasons as he continues to work on his game.
