Owen Beck
Owen Beck will begin his first professional season with tons of momentum. He is fresh off leading the Saginaw Spirit to a Memorial Cup Championship and could challenge for a spot on the Canadiens roster this season. He didn't have the greatest development camp, but a summer of training could be the difference. Beck has played lots of hockey, with two consecutive runs to a Memorial Cup and two straight World Junior tournaments.
The development camp wasn't long after winning the Memorial Cup. It could have been more of a fatigue factor for Beck than a preview of his potential. Beck could be the dark horse in this training camp, and it'll all start at the rookie showcase.
