The Montreal Canadiens made history on June 5, 1963, selecting Garry Monahan with the No. 1 overall pick in the first-ever NHL draft.
Monahan scored 285 points (116 goals and 169 assists) over 12 seasons in the NHL, but only 14 of his 748 career games came in a Canadiens uniform. After spending just two seasons in Montreal, Monahan went on to play for the Detroit Red Wings, Los Angeles Kings, Toronto Maple Leafs and Vancouver Canucks.
Last year, the Chicago Blackhawks chose center Connor Bedard with the first overall pick, and he made an immediate impact on the ice. Bedard notched 22 goals and 39 assists, earning the Calder Trophy awarded to the league's best rookie.
The San Jose Sharks chose Macklin Celebrini with their No. 1 pick in the 2024 NHL draft.
