Jake Evans reached a significant milestone by scoring his 100th career point in the Montreal Canadiens' recent victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets. He is the first seventh-round draft pick in Canadiens history to achieve this feat, highlighting his impressive performance since being selected 207th overall in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.

Evans has seen an increase in ice time this season, playing effectively on the second line alongside Cole Caufield and Alex Newhook. His coach, Martin St. Louis, praised Evans for his adaptability and responsibility on the ice, emphasizing that draft position does not determine a player’s success in the league.
