When the 2018 NHL Draft rolled around, the Montreal Canadiens had two prominent needs: centres and defencemen. By the end of the draft, they remedied both situations with a heavy emphasis on CHL centres like current #19 prospect Cam Hillis. They also began the rebuild of their defensive prospect pool with the selection of Alexander Romanov and Jordan Harris.
While Romanov has grabbed the spotlight with his play in the KHL and on the international stage, Harris has also put forth a great showing at Northeastern University playing a key role for the Huskies.
