Montreal Canadiens Return Owen Beck To Laval Rocket

The Montreal Canadiens announced they have returned forward Owen Beck to the Laval Rocket.

Beck was recalled on Jan. 19 and appeared in his first two games for Montreal this season, going pointless and averaging 7:35 of ice time.

The 20-year-old has been stellar this season for the Laval Rocket, posting nine goals and 25 points in 37 games this season as an AHL rookie.

A second round selection in the 2022 draft, Beck has shown great playmaking ability in his first pro season while primarily serving as a top-six center for the Rocket. He played on the wing in both games during his call-up.

Beck made his NHL debut last season as an emergency call-up.

The Port Hope, Ont., native won the Memorial Cup last season with the Saginaw Spirit and was a member of Team Canada's World Junior team.

The Rocket take on the Hershey Bears tonight and Hartford Wolf Pack on Friday.
