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
Before I even go further, I just want to say as clearly as I can: Brendan Gallagher is one of my all-time favourite Montreal Canadiens. I’ve watched him throughout his entire career, not just with the Habs, but even going back to junior. He played here in Vancouver for the Vancouver Giants, he was their captain, and when I found out as a little kid that he was part of the Montreal Canadiens organization, he instantly became one of my favourite players to follow, probably more
These are tough times in Vancouver. The Canucks currently sit in the basement of the NHL standings, and all signs point to an all-out collapse as their season seemingly slips away by the game, which has led to their captain appearing to be leaving sooner rather than later. Even though many fans find it hard to accept, the franchise seems prepared to turn its attention to the future and making this team younger. As the trade market starts to heat up and Vancouver willing to mo
The past month has been tough, I'd even say borderline traumatic for Montreal Canadiens fans. After a promising start to the season that hinted at something special building in Montreal, the injury bug hit the roster hard. Multiple players from the team’s middle six went down, and the result has been a string of losses that’s drained much of the early optimism. It’s an undeniably frustrating time. But even in the middle of this skid, there’s one massive positive emerging. Jur
This past week might go down as one of the worst sports weeks of my life—or at least the worst in a long time. Everything seemed to hit at once. My favourite hockey team, the Montreal Canadiens, went from rolling to collapsing under a wave of injuries, and my favourite NFL team, the Seattle Seahawks, reminded me how tough it will be for me to fully trust them as they try to chase a Super Bowl title this year. Let’s break down how all of this somehow happened in seven days and
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
