History
2006-07: Third-leading scorer and tops among defensemen for the Victoriaville Tigres (QMJHL) with 17 goals and 53 assists. Third-leading scorer among defensemen in the QMJHL.
2007-08: Undrafted and signed to a tryout contract by the Wild for their Traverse City prospect tournament team, Noreau impressed enough to earn a one-year contract with the Houston Aeros. After a slow start and a two-game stint in the ECHL, Noreau started to gain confidence and improved over the course of the season. His eight goals tied for the team lead from a defenseman and included five power-play goals. He also added eight assists and was a +5 on the season.
Talent Analysis
One the small side for a defenseman at 5'11 and 192 pounds, Noreau can do a lot of things offensively from the blue line and is still defensively sound. He can both move the puck well and has a good shot, making him an effective power play quarterback.
