Each week we take an in-depth look at young members of the organization while providing an overview of Habs prospects playing at the junior (OHL, WHL) and collegiate (NCAA) level.
There’s something about the Habs drafting seventh-rounders going the college route.
It started with Jake Evans in the 2014 draft. Evans played four seasons for Notre Dame, and his production ramped up each year. During his time spent with the Fighting Irish’s organization, he also became a two-way player, one who could setup his teammates at the offensive end of the ice and come back to act as a strong presence in his own zone.
