Fowler posted a record of 25-7-2 with a dominant .940 SP and 1.63 GAA with the Boston College Eagles this season. A third round pick of the Canadiens in 2023, Fowler has amassed some of the best NCAA numbers for a goaltender in recent memory, finishing his two year college career with a remarkable 57-13-3 record, .932 SP and 1.90 GAA with 10 shutouts. The 20-year-old backstopped Team USA to a gold medal at the 2024 World Junior Championship. He led the Eagles to a Hockey East Championship and was named to the Hockey East and NCAA East First All-American Team as a freshman. A native of Melbourne, Fla., Fowler captured the USHL's Clark Cup in 2023, leading the league in save percentage and goals against average before being named to the First All-Star Team, Goaltender of the Year, and Clark Cup MVP. Fowler looks to continue his winning ways with Laval as they seem poised to enter the Calder Cup Playoffs with a bye as they lead the North Division by five points.
