Prospect Info: 2024 117th OA : Blake Montgomery (C)

[PlayersLtd]

London isn't fair. My jr team has 4 players drafted to the NHL and 2 good draft eligible prospects. On London 14 of the top 15 players are drafted and the 15th in that group is Henry Brzustewiscz. On top of that they have one of the best 2025 draft eligible goalies.

Best run team in the CHL, top to bottom.

They obviously have more pull with the US guys and guys wanting to go there like Dickinson, but they are the best at scouting and developing in the country

Look no further than 2021, all of their top picks were guys who were "ranked" quite a bit lower than they were taken. Barkey, Cowen and Bonk. All taken higher than expected, all absolute homeruns that are the meat and bones of this championship team. I'm not sure you could find a better start to a draft in CHL history with guys who weren't slam dunk top picks. Then they grabbed Montgomery in the later rounds.
