The Montreal Canadiens have sent Michael McCarron to the minor leagues. The hulking center will return to the St. John’s Ice Caps. He has split this season as well as last with the Habs and Ice Caps and the trend continues today.
McCarron was the Canadiens first round pick when he was taken 25th overall in the 2013 NHL Draft. There were questions about his skating at the time, but certainly none about his size. The 6’6″ and 231 pound forward showed his speed has come a long way and he didn’t look out of place in his NHL audition.
