As was the case last night, the Montreal Canadiens were the first team up to the podium to begin day two of the NHL Entry Draft. With their first of two picks in the second round, they went with Owen Beck from the Mississauga Steelheads.
Beck is a player with some similarities to Shane Wright in that he isn’t a flashy player, but has a very well-rounded game. It is the little things in his game that make for a very intriguing addition to the Habs prospect pool, and he has a very high floor, thus a likelihood of eventually becoming an NHL regular.
