Summary
Montreal shocks with a trade-up to snag 63 Russian phenom Gleb Pugachyov at 26th overall—sending Vegas a late pick and a future third-rounder. Pugachyov, a right winger with 24 points in 33 games last season and All-Star honors, already has pro experience in the KHL at just 17. Originally from Kazakhstan, he’s the fifth player taken at 26th by Montreal, joining legends like Scherbak and Lemieux. With seven more picks left, day two kicks off Saturday morning.
