With their sixth-round pick in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, the Montreal Canadiens have drafted Rimouski Oceanic defenceman Simon Bourque.
In his second season with the QMJHL team, the Greenfield Park, Quebec native contributed 10 goals and 38 total points in the regular season — mostly in the second half — and helped the Oceanic to a Q championship and a place in the Memorial Cup tournament.
Known for his good awareness and puck-handling abilities, Bourque is also a leader on his team, receiving an 'A' in the 2014-15 season and being projected by Hockey Prospectus to don the 'C' next season for the club.
