#Habs Will Bitten: High-end scoring threat due to elite speed/acceleration, crafty hands, quick release. Gives 100% every shift.

A constant breakaway threat. Sneaky good playmaker who thrives in the tough areas.

Don't be fooled by his size, Bitten fights through checks and wins more battles than he loses. Underrated hitter, great forechecker.

I prefer Shaw over Eller.
The rest, I have no opinion. Don't know any of the guys they drafted.

The Andrew Shaw negotiation with the Montreal Canadiens continues. Wouldn't be surprised to see a 5-7 yr extension in days ahead.
