Montreal Canadiens: The Embarrassing List of Top Ten Scorers Drafted By Marc Bergevin

10. Jacob De la Rose: 38 career points

A strong defensive player, Jacob De la Rose brought very little offensively. But, very little offence is enough to make him a top ten producer that was drafted by Marc Bergevin.

De la Rose was drafted in the second round of the 2013 NHL Draft and would make his NHL debut with the Habs in 2014-15. He played a total of 119 games with the Canadiens, scoring 19 points in that time.

His best offensive season came with the Canadiens in 2017-18 when he scored four goals and 12 points in 55 games. That’s not exactly top six production. The Swedish centre was a fourth liner at best, but he did have the ability to play a smart defensive game and kill penalties at a young age at the NHL level.

Not many players gained the trust of Michel Therrien quicker than De la Rose did, but it never translated into much offence at all. He was eventually claimed off waivers by the Detroit Red Wings in 2018 and was traded for Robby Fabbri about a year later.

He played his last NHL game in the 2020-21 season with the St. Louis Blues, and played this most recent season in Sweden. His best NHL season included four goals and he was the 10th highest scorer ever drafted by Marc Bergevin.
