The 6-2, 230-pound, native of Ste-Catherine, Que., began his National Hockey League career with the Montreal Canadiens, where he played three-plus seasons before being acquired by Minnesota in exchange for Benoit Pouliot on Nov. 23, 2009.
In 314 career regular-season NHL games, he has scored 81 goals and added 56 assists for 137 points to go along with 177 penalty minutes. He has recorded one assist in 17 career playoff games. Internationally, Latendresse has represented Canada on two occasions, winning a gold medal at the 2006 World Junior Championship and a silver medal at the 2005 World Under-18 Championship.
Latendresse was Montreal’s second-round pick (45th overall) in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft.
