Hull and surrounding areas were amalgamated recently into a larger city, and I believe they were forced to change the name to Gatineau. Same team, though, but different (ugly) jerseys.

Tremblay has played very well for the Olympiques... He's 6-1 with a 2.13 GAA and a .926 save percentage right now. He is playing behind the best team in the league, so that may be leading to making those stats better, but he still has been quite good regardless.

The one game I saw him play, he was quite shaky early on, giving up three first period goals, but he stood on his head for the last two periods, and ended up getting the win.

you're right.. the team was forced by the city to change its name to the Gatineau Olympiques.. which is awful... in fact, people still chant "GO HULL GO" at games.
