    Ahead of this past season, Alex Huang was looking like a potential first round calibre NHL draft prospect. Only marginally im;proving upon his season last year, with 40 points (7+33) over 64 games with the Saguenéems tjos season, the 17-year-old right, smooth skating defenseman is looking like more of a second or third round pick.

    Despite this slide in NHL interest, Huang was able to secure NCAA interest this season, finding himself a spot on the Harvard Crimson following the completion of next season according to The Athletic's Scott Wheeler.

    According to Wheeler, Harvard was interested in the six-foot blueliner before the fifth overall pick in the 2023 QMJHL draft had signed with Chicoutimi.
