And with the 206th overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, the Montreal Canadiens call their final name and pack up their table. Considering the number of defenceman Marc Bergevin and Trevor Timmins picked on Day Two, it’s only fitting they finsihed things off with another player on the backend calling down Kieran Ruscheinski.
Ruscheinski comes from the AMHL’s Calgary Northstars Midget AAA team in Alberta. The first thing to notice about him is his physical frame which is 6’6″ and 201 pounds clearly making him the biggest player the Habs drafted this year.
In 33 games with the Calgary North Stars, Ruscheinski put up seven goals and four assists for a total of 11 points, up from five the year before.
