With the draft approaching and the NHL Combine underway, numerous rumors are circulating about various prospects.
Of course, we will focus on young Quebec players, and like the Canadiens, we find one of the most interesting profiles to be
Raoul Boilard.
Boilard, 18, is a 6-foot-1, 184-pound forward from Sherbrooke.
This season with the Baie-Comeau Drakkar, the Sherbrooke native tallied 62 points in 68 games, including 22 goals.
"Raoul Boilard, one of the top prospects from the @LHJMQ in the upcoming draft, is said to be meeting with no less than 15 teams at the Combine this week.
Yes, the #Habs are one of them. Boilard could well be picked somewhere in the 2nd round. Stay tuned!"
- Marc-Olivier Beaudoin
According to Canadian junior hockey analysts, he should be selected late in the 2nd round or early in the 3rd round.
It's also important to mention that Raoul Boilard has spoken with over 14 teams during the NHL Combine, so it's not 100% certain that he will end up in Montreal next year.
