Some rookies start the NHL campaign red hot, like Montreal Canadiens’ Ivan Demidov, who is atop the rookie points leaderboard, but more often than not, it takes rookies time to settle in and adjust to the speed of the game at the NHL level.

NHL Player of the Month: Cole Caufield
Montreal’s top line of Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and Juraj Slafkovský propelled the Canadiens into the playoffs with its play to end last season. They’ve managed to keep that level up to start the 2025-26 campaign, and currently have the Habs among the best teams in the league.
Leading the way on offence is Caufield with nine goals through 11 games, a 67-goal pace over the full 82-game schedule. Three of those goals have come in overtime, mean...

The Montreal Canadiens continue their excellent start to the season, tied for the Atlantic Division lead at 8-3-0 and 16 points. But that doesn't mean they've given up on their search for a second-line center. This has been a focus of Kent Hughes & Co. going back to the offseason (and even before), and they are still assembling a list of potential additions. Habs analyst Shaun Starr and insider Marco D'Amico have posited their list of dream 2C targets for the Canadiens... some more dream...

The Montreal Canadiens keep scanning for a true second line center, and insider Chris Johnston of The Athletic views a Pavel Zacha trade as the most realistic path among buzzed names like Matty Beniers and Bo Horvat. Johnston also cautions that the Boston Bruins are unlikely to send a useful piece to a long time rival, which means the fit is real but the route is complicated. League chatter mirrors that split verdict. Teams have been checking on Zacha’s availability while Bos...

When the Calgary Flames are ready to trade Nazem Kadri, there won't be a shortage of suitors to take a run at him. Plenty of teams are searching for a top-6 center and Kadri could absolutely fill the void. In Calgary, he is the go-to, but when he takes a little bit of a lesser role, his game elevates to an even higher level. Darren Dreger said, "There are other Canadian markets, namely the Canadiens, Canucks, maybe the Leafs, that could absolutely envision a #2 experienced center like Nazem Ka...

Everything was looking good for the Montreal Canadiens as they started the season. They had their star players under contract and willing to put in the effort to win games, they had a revamped blueline with all sorts of talents on it, and their goaltending was solid while being underrated. Head coach Martin St. Louis even smiled a few times during the preseason, but, all jokes aside, it seemed like the Canadiens had all their weapons armed and ready to go as they hunted down a playoff spot thi...

The Montreal Canadiens completed their season series against the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday night, and have swept it with a 4-3 win, with both wins being of the overtime variety. The Habs have struggled to hold on to third period leads in the early goings of this season, a trend that may soon necessitate a deeper discussion, but the good news is that their sheer talent has made them unbeatable in overtime so far.
As concerning as blown third-period leads may be, zero concern exists around ...

A lot of play in the neutral zone in the opening minutes of this game. Neither side is generating much.
