In 2020, Cecrick Guindon was the 10th overall pick in that year’s OHL Priority Selection. As a comparison, his new franchise teammate, or rival depending on how you look at it, Owen Beck was picked 19 spots later by Mississauga. As another comparison, the last time the Montreal Canadiens had an Owen Sound Attack prospect in their system, his name was Nick Suzuki. Suzuki was chosen 14th overall in the 2015 version of the OHL Draft.
#Habs Cedrick Guindon said when he first got drafted by the Owen Sound Attack, Nick Suzuki was the first person to send him a message on Instagram to congratulate him and once again Guindon has been drafted by a team with Nick Suzuki.
