Patrick Bordeleau (born March 23, 1986) is a Canadian professional ice hockey left winger currently playing for the Jonquiere Marquis in the Ligue Nord-Américaine de Hockey (LNAH). He has formerly competed in the National Hockey League (NHL) with the Colorado Avalanche.
Playing career
Bordeleau's junior hockey tenure began in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) with the Val-d'Or Foreurs. He was selected 114th overall by the Minnesota Wild during the 2004 NHL Entry Draft. After not signing with Minnesota, he embarked on his professional journey in the 2007–08 season, securing try-out contracts with several ECHL teams such as the Charlotte Checkers, Wheeling Nailers, and Pensacola Ice Pilots.
During the 2008–09 campaign, Bordeleau split time across various ECHL and AHL squads, including stints with Augusta Lynx, Albany River Rats, Florida Everblades, Springfield Falcons, Lake Erie Monsters, and Milwaukee Admirals, appearing in 15 AHL contests. The following year, he inked an AHL contract with the Lake Erie Monsters, earning a reputation as their enforcer while participating in 60 games and accumulating 106 penalty minutes.
In the 2010–11 season, Bordeleau attended Colorado Avalanche's training camp on a try-out basis but was reassigned to Lake Erie, where he established a franchise record for penalty minutes. On June 9, 2011, he signed his inaugural NHL contract—a one-year two-way agreement with Colorado—and cemented his status as one of the AHL’s top enforcers throughout the 2011–12 season.
Colorado re-signed him to a one-year deal in June 2012. He spent most of the lockout-shortened 2012–13 season with Lake Erie before making his NHL debut on January 19, 2013. That season, Bordeleau played in 46 of Colorado’s 48 games as their primary enforcer, leading the team in hits and ranking second in penalty minutes. He netted his first NHL goal on April 11, 2013.
On June 5, 2013, Bordeleau secured a three-year contract extension with Colorado. In the 2013–14 season, he appeared in all 82 games, setting personal bests with six goals and eleven points while once again leading in hits.
The 2014–15 season was hindered by injuries; after undergoing back surgery during the off-season that sidelined him for three months, he returned in December but sustained a fractured kneecap that prematurely ended his season. Bordeleau did not play for Colorado during the 2015–16 season and subsequently entered free agency.
On August 24, 2016, he signed a one-year contract overseas with the Cardiff Devils of the Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL). Following one season in Wales, Bordeleau returned to Quebec to compete for Saint-Georges in the LNAH.
Personal
After concluding his NHL career, Bordeleau faced personal challenges which led to his arrest and detention at Bordeaux Prison on February 18, 2020. He received a sentence of five months incarceration along with 160 hours of community service for defrauding his former stepfather-in-law of $63,000. Additionally, he pled guilty to charges of criminal harassment and breach of conditions.
