MONTREAL — It feels like every hour features more Montreal Canadiens news, and we’re all bound to miss a story or […]
Yevgeni Volokhin should have emerged from the shadows with the season that he had, but again it seems he will be held out of the limelight next year as well, considering that all eyes in Montreal will be firmly on Alexander Zharovsky and latest first-round pick Gleb Pugachyov. However, the fact is that Volokhin’s season was outrageous, with 12 clean sheets in the VHL, three of them in the playoffs. He finished second in shutouts, first in save percentage, and third in goals-against average (be...
Gleb Pugachyov
26th overall | Chaika Nizhny Novgorod, W, 6’3″ 224 lbs. Grade: A
I like that the Montreal Canadiens traded up and got a player they wanted and didn’t think would be there two picks later. This pick is addressing an organizational need: a big, physical player who can take up the reins from Josh Anderson down the line.
When it comes to Gleb Pugachyov, there is a lot to like with him. What stands out to me is the fact that he isn’t a player that necessarily gets you ...
Anthony Mantha is set to hit the free-agent market on July 1, as the Pittsburgh Penguins won't be circling back with a contract offer before Wednesday. There's going to be a slew of teams interested in signing the 33-goal scorer from last season, including the Montreal Canadiens, who have serious ties to Mantha.
The Canadiens enter free agency with $10.9 million in cap space, and they also have goaltender Sam Montembeault, who is expected to get traded in the coming days, which could free up ...
The Montreal Canadiens are looking to add down the middle this summer, and could be turning to the New York Islanders to facilitate a blockbuster trade. Reports have surfaced stating the two teams have discussed a trade centered around Isles forward Mat Barzal. Barzal, 29, is signed through the 2031 season at $9.1 million AAV, and owns a 22-team no-trade list. It does appear he'd be willing to be traded to Montreal. Barzal scored 19 goals and added 53 assists, for 72 points last season, leadin...
Canadiens fans are understandably disappointed after they picked Gleb Pugachyov 26th overall at the Draft. It's not justified, though.

Dipping their toes into the elite bloodline pool in the sixth round, the Montreal Canadiens selected the grandson of Hall-of-Famer and six-time Stanley Cup champion Bryan Trottier.
Parker Trottier may not be coming to the NHL with the pedigree of his legendary grandfather, but being a sixth-round pick likely alleviates much of the pressure that can come with having to wear that name on his back. Currently a member of the US Development Program, and committed to join the University of Notr...
The third defender taken in a row by the Montreal Canadiens was the first first-year eligible player they took on the second day of the 2026 NHL Draft. Brayden Klimpke doesn’t have one skill that makes you take notice, rather it is the combination of everything he does, his compete level, and his consistency that makes him an intriguing prospect.

The Montreal Canadiens seemed very keen on selecting Timofei Runtso, trading up four spots to select the defenceman. Runtso was in his second year of draft eligibility, having been passed over after playing in the NAHL in 2024-25, an environment he says wasn’t the best for him to show what he was capable of.
Making the move to the WHL this season, his game hit a new level under brighter lights. He contributed 44 points for the Victoria Royals, and many of the scouts who watched him say th...

With the 221st overall pick of the 2026 NHL Draft, the Montreal Canadiens selected Jean-Samuel Daigneault.
Elite Prospects
Daigneault is a very physical defenceman who lands crushing hits. Like Gleb Pugachyov selected in the opening round, he plays within the lines, taking few penalties despite the rough style of play.
After a year in the USHL, Daigneault will play for the Brantford Bulldogs in 2026-27. Brantford will hope he can help replace fellow Habs prospect Owen Protz, who...
