The 2015 NHL Entry Draft is just a day away and the Habs currently hold the 26th pick. Not surprisingly, there are quite a few different projected picks for the Canadiens depending on who is still available when Trevor Timmins gets set to announce the selection on Friday night. Here is a sampling of some of the other mock drafts and how each figure the first round will go down.
It had long been expected that Carey Price would be the big winner at the NHL Awards. On Wednesday night, he finally received his hardware, collecting no fewer than four trophies, including the Hart.
The 2015 NHL Entry Draft will be held at the BB&T Center in Florida this coming Friday and Saturday. As is our annual tradition, here is HabsWorld’s official mock draft.
One of the forwards that the Canadiens may target with the 26th overall pick in the upcoming NHL Entry Draft is Daniel Sprong, a right winger for Charlottetown of the QMJHL. Sprong is a known goal scorer and overall offensive threat.
Welcome to HabsWorld’s annual draft pool. The draft will be held on June 26th and 27th in Florida. Make your guess as to who the Canadiens will select as well as who the rest of the league will select in the first round on Friday night.
The last three years, the Habs have shied away from picking defencemen in the top-50 at the draft. Understandably, that has left the depth at that position quite underwhelming. There are several blueliners who could be strong options for Montreal with the 26th pick on Friday. One of those is Jacob Larsson.
With the draft and free agency fast approaching, there is a looming deadline that teams must be mindful of, the one for qualifying offers. Who do the Habs have to qualify and how much must the offers be?
If there’s one forward position that doesn’t have many questions heading into the summer for the Habs, it’s the right wing. The same, however, can’t be said for their prospect base at that position.
With the youth cupboards looking pretty bare on defence, the Canadiens may have a shot at a hot commodity on the backend in Czech defenceman Jakub Zboril. He could be a steal as the 26th pick by the Canadiens, should he last that long in the draft.
