Canadiens Wrap: Harris Headed To Worlds, Caufield ‘The Road Runner’

USA Hockey will have a Montreal Canadiens flavor on their roster when they head to Finland for the 2022 IIHF World Championships.

Montreal general manager Kent Hughes has been hard at work preparing for the 2022 NHL Entry Draft in July in Montreal.

Who will be the starting goalie for the Montreal Canadiens next season?

That and more in the latest MHN Canadiens Daily:

Montreal Canadiens

Montreal Canadiens rookie defenceman Jordan Harris and Habs prospect Sean Farrell are both headed to Finland to represent USA Hockey at the 2022 IIHF World Championships.

Montreal Canadiens general manager Kent Hughes is back from the Under-18 World Hockey Championships in Germany and ready to finalize plans for the 2022 NHL Entry Draft in July.

So who would be the No. 1 goalie for the Montreal Canadiens next season if Carey Price can’t play or is traded?

Really cool moment tweeted by the Montreal Canadiens Thursday with Habs legend and hall of famer Yvan Cournoyer and Cole Caufield catching up, and ‘The Road Runner’ calling Caufield ‘The New Roadrunner’

Yvan Cournoyer calling Cole a "Roadrunner" is tough to beat.#GoHabsGo | @TimHortons pic.twitter.com/IzdAZGkq5f
