Former Captain of the Everett Silvertips Noah Juulsen made his NHL debut Thursday night as he hit the ice with the Montreal Canadiens to take on the New York Rangers. The Silvertip veteran clocked more than 17 minutes of ice time for the Canadiens, tallying 2 shots and 4 hits. Montreal defeated New York 3-1.

Juulsen, 20-years-old, was the Captain of the Everett Silvertips last year, but was taken 26th overall in the 1st round of the NHL entry draft in 2015. The Abbotsford native has received a solid block of NHL playing time on a Canadiens team that has seen its record slip this season.
