As the 2020 NHL Entry Draft approaches, we decided to examine each team’s best and worst pick since the 2000 NHL Entry Draft. The biggest boom is a player that had the best value relative to where they were selected. Meaning, no one in the first round will be considered a team’s best value pick. However, the biggest bust picks will almost always be in the first round. We will examine each player, why they were picked where they were, and what their NHL career was like. Today, we look at the Montreal Canadiens draft, and their biggest boom and bust.

Montreal Canadiens Biggest Draft Boom and Bust Since 2000
Here is a taste with one of the honourable mentions
Victor Mete
Victor Mete has proven to be another notable boom draft pick for the Montreal Canadiens. He was drafted in the fourth round, 100th overall in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. While defencemen normally take longer to develop and crack the NHL line up, that was not the case for Mete. Although still developing, Mete was able to crack the Habs lineup just one year after his draft year. He has seen a ton of ice time on the top pairing with Shea Weber and has developed into a smooth-skating puck-moving defenceman for the Habs. Despite being a fourth-round selection, Mete has played the 13th most games out of all players in his draft year with 171.
