Major addition to the Canadiens' development camp with a hidden Swedish gem

A Swede, highly ranked by the NHL scouting bureau, went undrafted in the recent Bettman circuit draft in Las Vegas.

The Tricolore quickly seized the opportunity to extend him an invitation to their development camp this week at the training complex in Brossard.

Alexander Zetterberg was ranked 30th among the top prospects in Europe in the latest report before the draft.

The forward has golden hands, but his small stature has cooled interest from several teams. He stands at just 5 feet 7 inches tall.

An invitation to the Canadiens that could become a hidden gem for the organization. Zetterberg plans to play in the NCAA next season, but if he impresses the management, he could receive a contract offer.

An intriguing scenario and a development camp invitation that could pay off for Kent Hughes and his team.
