The Montreal Canadiens select...: Wingers who could be considered at 15th overall

The Montreal Canadiens had difficulty scoring goals last season. Ranking right near the top in possession numbers, the team finished 14th in goals.

The lack of top-end scorers was felt the most on the power play. The Habs finished the year in 30th place with a 13.2% conversion rate on their man advantage, and that was a major factor in them coming up just short of their post-season goal.

Given that deficiency of the current lineup, and the fact that outside of Nick Suzuki there are few prospects in the system who can be described as goal-scorers, the Canadiens may want to address that on June 21 by taking a winger with their pick at 15th overall.
