Ryan Poehling making the Montreal Canadiens out of camp, was the lock of the season if you asked anyone in August. That said, it made sense why he was initially sent down as Nick Suzuki had an incredible camp while Poehling missed time recovering from a concussion.
Once in the AHL, Poehling started to come alive offensively after going the first three games without a point. The 2017 first-round pick then went off for three goals and two assists in six games before hitting another cold spot. It didn’t change the excitement from the Habs fanbase when he was called up to play some Habs games.
