McShane will not be given a contract by the Habs,
Arpon Basu of The Athletic reports, meaning he will be available for selection in the 2020 NHL Draft.
ANALYSIS
McShane was selected by Montreal with the 97th overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft. After four seasons in the OHL, the center apparently has not shown the team brass enough to warrant an entry-level deal. This past year, the 20-year-old registered 23 goals and 44 helpers in 62 regular-season outings but was a concerning minus-26.
