With the upcoming National Hockey League season approaching, it's the season of predictions, rankings and charts.
Sportsnet contributor Nathan Murdock has just released his top-25 prospects in the NHL and the Montreal Canadiens are well represented.
In positions 11 to 25, Brad Lambert (11th) is ahead of Mason McTavish, Kent Johnson, Matthew Savoie, Marco Rossi and David Jiricek.
This is interesting because Lambert was drafted 30th overall in 2022 by the Winnipeg Jets. This seems like a solid selection for them.
Now see his top 10:
10. William Eklund (Sharks)
9. Jake Sanderson (Sens)
8. Simon Nemec (Devils)
7. Simon Edvinsson (Red Wings)
6. Juraj Slafkovsky (Canadians)
5. Logan Cooley (Coyotes)
4. Shane Wright (Kraken)
3. Luke Hughes (Devils)
2. Matthew Beniers (Kraken)
1. Owen Power (Sabres)
Slafkovsky (1st overall pick in 2022) is indeed behind Cooley and Wright, but still in a very good position, especially ahead of Nemec (2nd overall pick in 2022)
Do you agree with this ranking?
