A brilliant puck-handler, the Belarussian lit it up in his draft year at the U-18 tallying 15 points in only six games. While he doesnt have terrific speed, his ability to dangle and his heavy shot are his best assets. Naturally, the Canadiens are going to want him to get a bit bigger in order to take the punishment meted out at the pro level. Like most young Europeans, he needs to learn more about the defensive side of the game and learn to use his teammates better in the passing game. These are things that come with time.

49. Christopher Higgins, Center, Montreal Canadiens
The former 2002 first round pick, taken 14th overall, decided to leave Yale after his sophomore season, where he was a top ten finalist for the Hobey Baker award. Entering his first pro season, the 511, 188-pound center had to switch positions. When asked by Hockeys Future this October if it affected his game Higgins said, No, not really. I feel pretty comfortable playing both positions. He finished his rookie season in 2003-04 with 21 goals and 48 points in 67 games in the AHL. Higgins is a smart two-way forward with a good set of hands and is dangerous offensively. He is also a true leader who works hard and leads by example. He will be a member of the Montreal Canadiens in the not too distant future.
