The Montreal Canadiens may be changing the way we think about the draft before our eyes

There’s no worse feeling than thinking you’ve prepared for the draft more than any other year, waiting for the team you cover to make their picks and constantly saying to yourself, ‘Who?’

But that’s what it was like for me watching the Montreal Canadiens on the second day, and I’m sure it was like that for many fans as well. The instinct is to sit back and think that the scouting staff is the one in the wrong. But after some reflection, I think it’s the people on the outside who are wrong. And we may have to change our way of thinking, not demand the Canadiens do the same.
