    2026 Canadiens Top 25 Under 25: #6 Jacob Fowler (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    It can be hard to analyze goalies, let alone goaltending prospects, in this exercise. I have misjudged plenty of talents between the pipes for better and for worse, but for the first time in a long time there’s a goaltender who makes it easy to see what the future holds. From being the sixth goalie taken in his draft class to a World Juniors gold, the NCAA goalie of the year, a two-time All American, and already making his NHL debut, it’s clear that the sky is the limit for Jacob Fowler. He made

    2026 Canadiens Top 25 Under 25: #14 Florian Xhekaj (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    We’re entering the part of this exercise where the players are expected to become NHLers. Some guys do it through pure talent or high skill levels.

He earned an NHL call-up after contributing nine goals and two assists in 13 games for the Laval Rocket by early November. However, his post-NHL time was marked by just seven goals and seven assists in his final 40 games. After a 24-goal season the year before, he scored just 16 times, seeing his total offence cut nearl

    2026 Canadiens Top 25 Under 25: #24 Tyler Thorpe (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Tyler Thorpe is coming off his first complete professional season of hockey with the Laval Rocket, and it was a year that highlighted plenty for the 20-year-old forward. In 68 games, he potted four goals and tallied 12 assists to go along with 77 penalty minutes in mostly a bottom-six checking role for Pascal Vincent. While the counting stats don’t look super appealing, Thorpe’s penchant for nastiness made him a fan favourite and a staple for the Rocket’s style of play. Standing 6’5″ and weighin
