Kidney signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Canadiens on Wednesday.
Scouting Report
The playmaking center led the QMJHL in assists in 2021-22, reinforcing his billing as a pass-first player who can pick apart an opposing defense. His transition game helps keep the puck in the opponent's zone. He will need to get stronger and improve his shot in order to keep opponents from dropping off him.
Long Range Potential: Creative center with good upside.
