Yevgeni Volokhin should have emerged from the shadows with the season that he had, but again it seems he will be held out of the limelight next year as well, considering that all eyes in Montreal will be firmly on Alexander Zharovsky and latest first-round pick Gleb Pugachyov. However, the fact is that Volokhin’s season was outrageous, with 12 clean sheets in the VHL, three of them in the playoffs. He finished second in shutouts, first in save percentage, and third in goals-against average (beaten by two former teammates). During the playoffs, Volokhin finished fourth in save percentage, fourth in goals-against average and third in shutouts. He finished the combined season with a .941 save percentage and 1.64 GAA. It is a very successful season indeed, the only blip over the season is losing the VHL final, especially to his former team, Ugra.

Gleb Pugachyov 26th overall | Chaika Nizhny Novgorod, W, 6’3″ 224 lbs.Grade: A I like that the Montreal Canadiens traded up and got a player they wanted and didn’t think would be there two picks later. This pick is addressing an organizational need: a big, physical player who can take up the reins from Josh Anderson down the line. When it comes to Gleb Pugachyov, there is a lot to like with him. What stands out to me is the fact that he isn’t a player that necessarily gets you to the playoffs, but he gets you through the playoffs — and he loves the playoffs. There is also the fact that he had a few KHL games this season. While the point total isn’t much (three in 13 games), the hit count certainly is; in the MHL he had close to two hits a game, but in the KHL he was close to three per game.

The playoffs have left their mark on the Canadiens’ draft -
The message the Canadiens sent at the draft is hard to miss. Over the course of the two-day draft, Kent Hughes and his team were practically obsessed with size. All eight players selected by the Montreal organization are at least 6 feet tall, and several are well above that mark. https://t.co/37LVvfl7ow — TVA Sports (@TVASports) […] The post The playoffs have left their mark on the Canadiens’ draft appeared first on Dose.ca.

Getting to know Montreal Canadiens 57th overall pick Timofei Runtso -
The Montreal Canadiens seemed very keen on selecting Timofei Runtso, trading up four spots to select the defenceman. Runtso was in his second year of draft eligibility, having been passed over after playing in the NAHL in 2024-25, an environment he says wasn’t the best for him to show what he was capable of. Making the move to the WHL this season, his game hit a new level under brighter lights. He contributed 44 points for the Victoria Royals, and many of the scouts who watched him say that total should have been significantly higher. On a team with zero NHL-drafted prospects led with a point total of 56, Runtso’s 44 almost doubled the total of the next defenceman on the team, and he was one off the team lead in assists.

Getting to know Montreal Canadiens 93rd overall pick Cooper Cleaves -
It’s not every day that a team can draft someone that they had at their development camp, but that is exactly what the Montreal Canadiens did when they drafted defender Cooper Cleaves. Cleaves was an invite at last year’s development camp, and clearly made an impression before spending last season at Dartmouth College. He is in his third year of draft eligibility, and wasn’t seen by many as a potential draft target. The Canadiens have liked going the overage route when drafting players in recent years, and the fact they have a few days of hands-on experience with him at their camp may give them a bit more intel on him than most. While he wasn’t necessarily expecting the Canadiens to call his name, he did say that he built and maintained relationships with the staff after last summer’s camp.
