And that's all she wrote for the Montreal Canadiens' 2025-26 season. The Canadiens' remarkable playoff has come to an end after a 6-1 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Final. While Montreal managed to take Game 1 by a score of 6-2, the reality is that Carolina controlled this series from Game 2 on. Even though Games 2 and 3 required overtime, the Hurricanes were the better team in both contests. The final two games weren't particularly compet
There is no way to put this lightly, the Montreal Canadiens, over the last two games in the Eastern Conference Finals, despite getting both Games 2 and 3 to overtime, have been absolutely awful offensively. After dominating Game 1 with a 6-2 win, the Canadiens have looked like a completely different team. Because of how bad they’ve played against the Carolina Hurricanes only registering 12 and 13 shots in Games 2 and 3, there have been a lot of narratives surrounding this Can
Ladies and gentlemen, the Montreal Canadiens have done it again. After escaping the first round against the Tampa Bay Lightning in a grueling seven-game series, the Canadiens worked their magic once again in their second Game 7 of these Stanley Cup Playoffs, beating the Buffalo Sabres four games to three in what was an epic series between two of, in my opinion, the two best up-and-coming teams in the Atlantic Division. I expect this to become a regular playoff matchup between
After an absolutely epic seven game series, which was one of the closest both statistically and just from watching, best displays of hockey I have seen in years, the Montreal Canadiens and Tampa Bay Lightning delivered an all time matchup. And in the end, the Canadiens prevailed, winning the series 7 games. And they did it behind probably the worst offensive game I have seen them play all season. They registered nine shots on net and somehow still won the game. That is all th
Listen, at the start of this Habs season back in October, if you had told me that the Canadiens would be in a Game 7 against the Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round of the playoffs, I would have jumped at that opportunity. Obviously, there were some ups and downs along the way, and expectations have been raised for this group after a successful season. Which brings me to last night.... Being up 3-2 in the series with a chance to close out the Lightning at home, getting a p
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
