Montreal Canadiens prospect Jacob Fowler, drafted in the third round of the 2023 draft, is impressing many.
In an interview, Fowler mentioned his love for pressure and his comfort under the spotlight, qualities that appeal to the Canadiens.
On the ice, he excelled in his first NCAA season with Boston College and is expected to continue his strong performance thanks to a talented team.
Pierre McGuire, analyst on the Sick Podcast, believes Fowler could be ready for the pros after another dominant season, even calling him a future superstar. He suggests a full season in the American Hockey League before a potential NHL transition.
However, it's wise to temper expectations, as seen with Cayden Primeau, who took time to adjust to the pros. Nonetheless, fans have every reason to be excited about Fowler's impressive progress so far.
