We’ve reached the top ten in our 2019-20 prospect rankings. Included in this group are a pair of prospects that made their NHL debuts this season plus one that has seen his value start to tumble a bit.

April 9th was originally supposed to be a day that had an impact on the fortunes for the Habs with the Draft Lottery scheduled to take place. While that’s on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Trevor Timmins spoke with the media today to talk about the draft and more.

Frederik Dichow has decided to change things up as the Canadiens prospect has decided to leave Sweden and play with Sudbury of the OHL for the 2020-21 season.

The Habs have been active recently in re-signing some of their players in Laval and that continued on Friday as they announced that they’ve signed Laurent Dauphin to a one-year contract extension.

The month of March was a brief one in the hockey world although a handful of Laval players and other Montreal players still managed to make their mark to find a place in the three stars.

The CHL’s cancellation of the playoffs and Memorial Cup last week is one for the history books but it also means that decision time has arrived for several of Montreal’s prospects.

After a strong sophomore season at Northeastern, it felt like there was a chance that Jordan Harris would turn pro.  However, he has decided to stick around for at least one more year and won’t sign with the Habs for next season.

While he hasn’t been able to debut in North America as he planned earlier this month, Jesse Ylonen now has an entry-level contract under his belt after the Habs signed him on Thursday.

While Gustav Olofsson’s brief stint with the Habs didn’t go well this season, he has been a quality player in Laval.  Montreal rewarded him for his efforts on Wednesday, signing him to a one-year contract extension.

It will be a while yet before Joni Ikonen comes to North America as he has signed a two-year contract with Ilves of the Finnish SM-liiga.
