Among the many prospects who could be available at 26th overall, the name of Cole Hutson, Lane Hutson's brother, stands out.
Hutson, a talented offensive defenseman, seems to be an intriguing option for the Canadiens. He has developed his own identity within the US National Team Development Program and has had a record-breaking season.
Indeed, he has surpassed scoring records previously held by renowned players like Adam Fox, Quinn Hughes, and even his own brother, Lane Hutson. However, despite his individual successes, his team failed in the U-18 World Championship Finals.
Nevertheless, Hutson remains optimistic about his future and eagerly awaits the NHL Draft, where he hopes to be chosen by an organization like the Montreal Canadiens, with whom he has had some interactions.
