A quick draft recap for the Montreal Canadiens 2017 NHL Draft. I put together a list of the prospects coming to Montreal and a quick video or two showcasing each players highlight reel.
1st Round
25th Overall – Ryan Poehling (Center)
ST. CLOUD STATE (NCAA)
Ryan Poehling #11 - NCAA Season Highlights
- That hand-eye coordination is impressive.
2nd Round
56th Overall – Josh Brook (Right Handed Defencemen)
MOOSE JAW (WHL)
58th Overall - Joni Ikonen (Center)
FROLUNDA JR. (SWE)
3rd Round
68th Overall - Scott Walford (Left Handed Defencemen)
VICTORIA (WHL)
87th Overall – Cale Fleury (Right Handed Defencemen)
KOOTENAY (WHL)
5th Round
149th Overall - Jarret Tyszka (Left Handed Defencemen)
SEATTLE(WHL)
7th Round
199th Overall - Cayden Primeau (Goalie)
That concludes this year’s draft for the Montreal Canadiens. They ended up grabbing two Centers, a handful of Defencemen and a goalie. Two positions where Montreal lacked depth in, time will tell if any of these prospects will thrive and become future stars in the Mecca of Hockey – MONTREAL !
