Kent Hughes and the Canadiens have an unexpected player in their sights for the next draft

When you look at the Habs' prospect pool, you realize that it is very solid, especially on defense. With the quality of the upcoming draft and a good ranking to make his selection, we can think that a talented forward will join the Tricolore, but be careful.

According to analyst David Ettedgui, if the Habs were to slip to sixth or seventh, his choice will be defenseman David Reinbacher.

Still, it makes sense, since the majority of the depth in the Habs' defense prospects is left-handed. Reinbacher is a 6'2", 190 lbs right handed defenseman with a very bright future.

Let's hope that there will be a nice surprise and that the CH will win the Connor Bedard lottery.
