Indeed, according to several observers, this summer, the Canadiens are said to have found their next future goaltender with the young Jacob Fowler.
An 18-year-old who could very well become the goaltender sought after by the organization. It's still early, but the experts are very excited.
This is particularly the case with Steven Ellis, who is certain that Fowler has the skills to become a starting goaltender in the NHL, nothing less.
Ellis, who followed Fowler closely at the World Junior Summer Showcase, even goes so far as to say that the young Canadiens goaltender could very well be the number one goaltender for Team USA.
Imagine the scenario, it would say a lot!
An NHL scout adds another layer:
He is definitely a name to keep in mind!
