The Montreal Canadiens signed Cam Hillis to his entry-level contract yesterday. Today, we make the case they should do the same with Cole Fonstad.
The Montreal Canadiens loaded up on draft picks at the 2018 NHL Draft. They didn’t stop there either. After making 11 picks in 2018, they drafted ten more players a year later and currently have 14 picks in hand for the 2020 NHL Draft. They have finally focused on skill and speed over big bashing wingers who don’t pan out.
