Each week we take an in-depth look at young members of the organization while providing an overview of Montreal Canadiens prospects playing at the Junior (OHL, WHL), and collegiate (NCAA) level.
Rhett Pitlick is on his third USHL team in two years. We don’t always see players move from team to team like this in that league, but Pitlick’s name probably comes up a lot in trade talks due to his uncommon speed and defensive abilities. They make him a great complementary piece to most formations.
Pitlick started his Junior career with the Omaha Lancers before moving to the Muskegon Lumberjacks, where he found success on the opposite wing of playmaker Daniil Gushchin.
