I’ve grown up loving and playing the game of hockey since I was five years old. At one point, I probably thought I could be an NHL player, but it turns out the NHL wasn't looking for perennially mediocre rep hockey players, and it became obvious it was not going to happen. But along the way, I’ve had favourite players whose games I've really connected with. When I first started watching hockey consistently in the late 2000s or early 2010s, my first favourite player was Michae
On Tuesday, March 17th (my birthday by the way), the Montreal Canadiens picked up a massive win against the Boston Bruins in one of their most important games, if not the most important game of their season to date. This win kept them in third place in the Atlantic Division, two points up on the Detroit Red Wings and Boston Bruins for that final divisional playoff spot, and within striking distance of the Tampa Bay Lightning for second. With 15 games to go, according to Money
After about a three-week hiatus for the Olympic break, the Montreal Canadiens return to action tonight with a home game against the New York Islanders. Coming out of the break, the Canadiens sit second in the Atlantic Division with 72 points on the year, and while, as of right now, they are comfortably in a playoff spot, this is not a time to be complacent or even ease back into things with just 25 games to go in the regular season. The Canadiens need to be ready to pounce if
We’re in the last few days of 2025, which is kind of crazy to even say out loud. It feels like this year absolutely flew by. And when it comes to the Montreal Canadiens, it was actually a really good year overall. For the first time since 2021, the Canadiens got back to the playoffs. They didn’t go far, but getting back there mattered. It felt like a real step forward for the organization after a few tough seasons. More than anything, 2025 was about seeing the young core star
The Montreal Canadiens couldn’t have asked for a worse week. After being blown out 6–1 by the Los Angeles Kings, the Habs followed it up by getting routed 7–0 by the Dallas Stars. Both games being on home ice and both were a complete dismantling that exposed every current flaw in their game. Despite starting the season strong, the Canadiens are now trending in the wrong direction, and these back-to-back lopsided losses have forced a hard look at where things stand. But there
The Montreal Canadiens have officially locked up Lane Hutson, and somehow, it’s an absolute steal. The young defenseman will make under $9 million per year with an average AAV of $8.85 million on the salary cap starting in the 2026-27 season. A figure that, given his trajectory, looks like a massive win for the organization. This signing doesn’t just secure a cornerstone player; it highlights a rare commitment to Montreal. In today’s NHL, very few players take discounts to pl
