Playing career

[edit]

As a youth, Morriset played in the 1994 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Langley, British Columbia.[1]

Morriset was selected by the St. Louis Blues in the second round, 65th overall, in the 2000 NHL Entry Draft.[citation needed] Morisset played major junior hockey in the Western Hockey League for the Seattle Thunderbirds when his NHL rights were traded by the Blues to the Florida Panthers in exchange for Scott Mellanby.[2] Morriset made his professional debut in the 2001–02 season with the Bridgeport Sound Tigers of the American Hockey League before he was recalled to the Panthers to make his NHL debut and feature in four games. Morisset retired from professional hockey after an attempted return from injury with the Idaho Steelheads of the ECHL in 2005.[citation needed]
