Stefano has been invited to the Habs' development camp this week in Brossard and given the number 52, previously worn by Mathieu Darche. He is six foot three, 205 pounds. Last season he led Smith Falls Bears of the Junior A Ontario League in scoring with 26 goals and 72 points He also had four goals and seven assists in 16 playoff games.

Here is an interview he did today, broadcast on Habs TV. He explained why he went to the Ontario League in order to try and get an NCAA scholarship.
Sergio Momesso was the ideal player for any team. He could score and never shied away from dropping his gloves. Stefano did not record a high amount of penalty minutes.
Below take a look at Sergio battling it with Mark Tinordi, the dad of Habs defenceman Jarred Tinordi.
