The Montreal Canadiens‘ prospect depth down the middle is about as deep as a kiddie pool right now. There’s Jacob de la Rose, and maybe Michael McCarron depending on the day of the week and the phase of the moon. In Europe there’s Lukas Vejdemo, who is currently hashing out a spot for himself for Djurgården in the Swedish league.
Enter the Boston University-bound Shane Bowers, who just wrapped up his second full season for the Waterloo Blackhawks of the USHL. While his offensive numbers are solid, they are not going to blow people away like some of the other forwards in this draft.
