With less than four weeks until the 2024 NHL Entry Draft, fans of the Montreal Canadiens are anxiously waiting for the announcement of the name of the player who will be added to the roster. In a Draft laden with promising blueliners, most supporters are ready to welcome one of the talented forwards near the top of the rankings.
