Round 6

160th Overall - Michael Pezzetta

Pezzetta's first four seasons with the franchise were split between the AHL and ECHL levels. The Canadiens recalled him during the 2021-22 season, and he excited fans with his blend of tenacity and sometimes comical antics. Pezzetta has been a nice story over the last three seasons with the team, but he unforunately won't be a piece they can keep around as a contender.

Round 7

187th Overall - Arvid Henrikson

Henrikson never ended up signing with the Montreal Canadiens. He played four seasons at Lake Superior State University, one game with the San Jose Barracuda at the end of the 2022-23 season, then returned to Sweden to play in the HockeyAllsvenskan in 2023-24. He had zero points in 48 games.
