In response to a question from the reporter, Hughes revealed his list of favorite Canadiens prospects.
He likes Owen Beck, Filip Mesar, Sean Farrell, Lane Hutson, Jayden Struble, Luke Tuch and Adam Engstrom.
Obviously, doing name dropping can come with consequences and some fans brought up the point yesterday. DG didn't say a word about Logan Mailloux.
The Habs' 31st overall pick in 2021 signed an entry-level contract with the Tricolore this fall and is off to a stellar start this season, with 14 points in 15 games. For a guy who was injured more often than not, that's a pretty impressive record!
So why didn't Hughes mention him? A simple oversight?
