We've all heard the 20,000 Montreal Canadiens GMs (i.e. fans) making their pitch to get Dylan Larkin to accept a trade. The "We Want Larkin" chants were raining down at the Bell Centre when the Detroit Red Wings were in town last weekend. Larkin admitted afterwards that it was "very interesting," and "They’re passionate fans. This is, in my opinion, the best atmosphere in hockey." To this point, Larkin has not opened his limited approved trade list to include Montreal. But ac...

Dylan Larkin isn't expanding his list to include the Montreal Canadiens yet, and the New York Rangers are looking but not rushing the goalie market.
The Montreal Canadiens entered the 2026-27 season with some interesting questions surrounding their goaltending situation. With Jakub Dobes expected to carry a significant portion of the workload and Samuel Montembeault looking to bounce back from a difficult campaign, the organization appeared to have a relatively clear plan in place. However, Montembeault’s recent injury opened the door for Jacob Fowler, and the young netminder has wasted little time making his presence felt. With three impr...

Nick Suzuki gets the game’s first scoring chance as the puck slides over to him on the wing. He lines up a shot for the top corner, but it catches on Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen’s jersey and deflects over the net.
Buffalo’s first scoring chance comes a few seconds after an Adam Engström turnover in his own zone, with a second error coming as the point shot deflects in off his at the side of the net to give the Sabres an early lead. A shift can’t get much worse than that.
