The Canadiens traded the 57th-overall pick to the Lightning in exchange for the 124th-overall pick in 2020 and Tampa Bay's second-round pick in 2021. After dealing away their 78th-overall pick in the Anderson trade, the Canadiens weren't called to the virtual podium in the third round. Montreal traded the 98th-overall pick (4th round) to San Jose for Washington's 3rd-round pick (previously acquired) in 2021. The team made three picks in the fourth round. With the 102nd-overall selection, the Habs picked up center Jack Smith from the USHL's Sioux Falls Stampede.

With the 102nd pick, the Canadiens select Jack Smith.
The Canadiens traded their seventh-round pick (188th overall) in 2020 to the Blackhawks in exchange for Montreal's seventh-round pick in 2021, which had previously been acquired by Chicago. That closed out the Habs' day at the 2020 NHL Draft. The Canadiens were active on the opening day of the Draft on Tuesday. First, they placed defenseman Karl Alzner on unconditional waivers for the purpose of a contract buyout. Later in the day, they acquired forward Josh Anderson from the Columbus Blue Jackets in return for Max Domi and their 2020 third-round pick (78th overall). With the 16th-overall pick at the Draft, the Habs plucked defenseman Kaiden Guhle from the WHL's Prince Albert Raiders.
