Insider: Canadiens Shopping For Goaltender

The Montreal Canadiens rank 30th in the NHL in goals against average, at 3.54 allowed per game. Similarly, they're 30th in save percentage, at .877. If the team hopes to maintain its push to the top of the Atlantic Division, it will certainly need to address the goaltending.  Sam Montembeault has been supremely disappointing this season, with a 5-6-1 mark, an .861 Sv% and a 3.61 goals against average. The Habs came into the season feeling like their goaltending was in good hands, as the 2...

Bottom Six Minutes: Martin St-Louis’s lineup changes pay dividends against Winnipeg

Less than 24 hours after finishing a very disappointing effort against the Ottawa Senators on home ice, the Montreal Canadiens were right back in action at the Bell Centre. With the Winnipeg Jets in town, they needed to find a way to bounce back from their poor showing quickly. The Atlantic division is extremely tight in the early goings of this season, and they would want to avoid starting another long losing streak in order to keep pace with the teams around them. Martin St-Louis electe...

Canadiens vs. Jets Top Six Minutes: Habs stick with it for a win

Could you imagine Sportsnet not showing a tribute to a Toronto Maple Leafs player? It would never happen. A full shakeup has been made to the forward lines. I’m not sure about putting Slafkovský back on the top line because he seemed to be doing good work on the second one. I’m glad this game is also on RDS so I don’t gave to listen to Garry Galley’s giggling every time Montreal gets scored on. First period Mike Matheson advances up into the slot to take an open shot, a...

Predators Trade Rumors: Ryan O'Reilly Trade Down to 2 Teams

The Nashville Predators are one of the only NHL teams in sell mode, and veteran center Ryan O'Reilly is the prime trade candidate to be dealt first. O'Reilly has not looked like himself this season, and has called his own play out publicly. With that said, the Predators as a group are struggling, and GM Barry Trotz has no other move but to listen to trade offers. When it comes to moving O'Reilly, the New Jersey Devils and Montreal Canadiens are leading the charge. O'Reilly doesn't have any tra...

GM #26: Winnipeg Jets @ Montreal Canadiens

The Winnipeg Jets showed very little passion when they were cake walked by the Buffalo Sabres on Monday night, it will be interesting to see how the players perform tonight after a closed door meeting was called by, I am assuming, an unhappy Adam Lowry . Wednesday’s clash involves a pair of Canadian NHL franchises that have seen their playoff hopes take a hit with a recent string of bad results. The fans of the True North franchise knows the Jets ( 13-12-0 ) have not done well over their ...

Bottom Six Minutes: Same old problems follow the Habs back to the Bell Centre

After a rather successful 2-1 road trip, the Montreal Canadiens were back at the Bell Centre on Tuesday night to face their divisional rivals in the Ottawa Senators. It was a less-than-triumphant return to home ice, culminating in a 5-2 loss that leaves them looking for answers in short order, since they’ll be hosting the Winnipeg Jets this evening. A lot of the same problems that they faced during their last losing streak were evidently present in the loss, but hey, at least the power pl...

Insider: 3 Canadiens Defensemen Becoming Trade Candidates

The depth on the Montreal Canadiens ' blueline continues to mount. And with it, the possibility of a trade from that depth to address their need in the top-six.  A report from Habs insider Marco D'Amico in rg.org indicates that while teams have been calling GM Kent Hughes on Kaiden Guhle, he has no intention whatsoever of trading the currently-injured d-man. Rival GMs "have been met with an immediate denial." The combination of physicality and defensive awareness that he brings to their b...

Why Are The Jets Having Scoring Problems?

While I am coming to terms with the debacle of an outing the Winnipeg Jets had last night in Buffalo…and in an attempt to distract me from thinking about how Wednesday’s game against the Montreal Canadiens will go…I figured I would dive into the True Northers issues with secondary scoring this season. For this review, I opted to stick with Winnipeg’s forward position. The reason for this becomes obvious when you consider that the top unit of Mark Scheifele , Kyle Connor , & Gabriel Vilard...

Canadiens vs. Senators Top Six Minutes: Montreal gets thoroughly outplayed in return home

First period After an energetic start, it’s the Senators that make the biggest error by taking a penalty, allowing the Canadiens’ special teams to go to work. Linus Ullmark is caught with a shot to the neck from Zachary Bolduc and dazed in his crease. He makes once more stop, but is unable to stop Juraj Slafkovský on the follow-up as Cole Caufield finds him across the crease. Excellent pass from Cole Caufield to Juraj Slafkovsky, and it's 1-0 #Habs pic.twitter.com/eg0nxsnFzM...
