But the real question is, do Kent Hughes and the CH organization agree?
It seems so!
Even if Kent Hughes did not want to give any clues, some major new information has just surfaced!
The identity of the player who will be drafted first overall by the CH would already be known!
As mentioned by Marco Normandin (HABSolumentFan), and according to what journalist Louis Butcher of the Journal de Montréal reports, it is indeed Shane Wright who is targeted by the Montreal Canadiens' executives.
Butcher quotes influential people in the hockey world here:
So, barring a surprise turn of events, it is indeed Shane Wright who should be selected at the very top, overall, by Kent Hughes and the Tricolore. He is currently the one at the top of the CH's list.
It's promising! With a center line led by Wright and Nick Suzuki, it's starting to be really interesting!
