There was a time where Zach Fucale was one of Montreal’s better prospects. Since then, things have mostly gone downhill and he has been leapfrogged by several goalies since then. Has the time come for the Habs to let him go?
Most of Montreal’s prospects saw limited action in the month of April but some still managed to make their mark. Here are our 3 Stars from the past month.
The Habs have been busy lately signing centre prospects and continued that trend on Wednesday, signing Lukas Vejdemo to a two-year, entry-level contract.
The ping pong balls have been drawn and the Habs now know where their first selection will fall at the draft in June. While they didn’t land the top spot, they did move up to third overall.
The Habs have once again dipped into the junior free agent market, inking centre Alexandre Alain to a three-year, entry-level contract.
