Former agent of Georges Laraque, David Ettedgui, used his contacts to reveal some very interesting information ahead of the draft.
Some of this information concerns the Montreal Canadiens, and as Maxime Truman points out, Ettedgui has often had solid scoops around this time of year.
"Offer sheet to Sebastian Aho.. trade for a young forward.. intent to draft Ivan Demidov.. Georges Laraque's former agent has often been right at this time of year in the past."
And this year, he just made a very bold statement.
That also aligns with what the oddsmakers believe.
Justin Carbonneau will be the Canadiens' pick if the team keeps its 16th and 17th overall picks-and if he's still available
Now that's interesting.

And here's a standout quote:
"This ranking is the result of many conversations I've had over the past two weeks with several NHL scouts I regularly speak with.
In addition, I've worked behind the scenes, using my phone to feel out the landscape through many of my contacts around the league to find out what's going on. [...]
If the Habs draft twice, Justin Carbonneau will, without a doubt, become a Montreal Canadien."
