The third season of Canada’s Ultimate Challenge has come to an end with Team Red coming out the victors. After seven weeks of challenges across Canada, including Tofino, the CBC competition show came to an end with Team Red beating out Team Yellow in the final obstacle course that was set up at the historic Halifax Citadel National Historic Site. Team Red was made up of Santina Carlson, 31, of Edmonton, Canmore’s Mark Manysiak, 35, and Keenan Wong a 26-year-old personal trainer from

The Canadiens enter the playoffs with a 7-1-2 record in their last 10 games.
The end of the season seemed much more tumultuous and complicated than that, but the numbers don’t lie. In this good end to the season, Samuel Montembeault had his say despite more difficult starts. Since the Four Nations Tournament, he has only had three losses in regulation time. And the three losses in 60 minutes, he had them against teams that will be in the playoffs.

The Canadiens are in the playoffs.
Martin St-Louis’ team will start their series on Monday, in Washington.
Will we see Juraj Slafkovsky with blond hair? In the past, he told Anthony Martineau that if his team made the playoffs, he would dye his hair blond and have the same haircut as in the photo below.ARE YOU READY FOR THIS?????????https://t.co/pwydJfrzZh

Brad Richards and Martin St-Louis were teammates in Tampa Bay for several years.
When they played together, St-Louis borrowed a tie from him and never gave it back.
Since the break in the Confrontation of the four nations, the coach of the Canadiens, who is superstitious, has been wearing the tie regularly because it brings him good luck. Result: Montreal is in the playoffs, thanks to the tie.
However, these may be the last moments St-Louis has to wear it, as the real owner of the object would l

David Savard gave some hints about his future last night.
We saw his children and wife join him on the bench during the warm-up of the game between the Habs and the Hurricanes… and we also know that Savard had a hat made for his wife to highlight his career.
Ultimately, it is (more than) logical to believe that this is his last moment in the NHL.
The guys in the room know that Savard will probably retire at the end of the season and at that level, it’s sure that they will want to pl

Vancouver native Seth Rogen’s criticism of American President Donald Trump’s policies on science was cut from video recorded at the 2025 Breakthrough Prize ceremony, a.k.a the Oscars of science.

The Habs are officially in the playoffs.
And to mark the occasion, the Canadiens organization is going to do things in a big way.
Why do I say that? Because the Habs have announced that playoff games will also be broadcast outside the Bell Centre. It’s a good idea.
Here’s what you need to know:
The viewing parties will take place at Espace 1909 on av. des Canadiens-de-Montréal.
Interested fans will have to buy a $53 ticket to “participate in the event” and on site,

Ivan Demidov made his NHL debut on Monday night.
He collected two points (one goal) and the fans at the Centre Bell were quite spoiled.
The fans showed their love by cheering on the young player… and also by buying his jersey.
And sold jerseys #93, there were many: according to Peter Alper (HockeyDB), the Habs had their biggest single-day sales in franchise history (for one day) during Ivan Demidov’s first game.
The Canadiens sold $250,000 worth of Demidov jerseys only… which

I don’t want to hear another comment suggesting that Nick Suzuki is not a quality first center in the National Hockey League (NHL).
Forgive my language, but… give me a break with that.
At 25 years old, Suzuki has been able to lead his team to the playoffs. He has been the best player on the team since day one of the season and has set an example on the ice. The captain had a great season and the Habs have decided to reward him:The winner of the Molson Cup for the 2024-2025 season: N

The Rangers do not seem to be doing very well at the moment.
A woman had alleged last summer that Artemi Panarin had sexually assaulted her, and this morning, we learned that MSG (the company that owns the Rangers) and the player paid the woman in question to settle the matter confidentially.
This is not a good look for a prestigious organization like the Rangers. Really not…
But that’s not all, because there’s a new development in the story.
In fact… according to TSN,

There was a great atmosphere in the Canadiens’ locker room following the team’s win last night against the Hurricanes.
The Montreal team was finally able to cement its place in the last rank giving access to the playoffs this season in the NHL and the players were proud after the game.

We had a good idea that the first game of the series between the Capitals and the Canadiens would take place on Monday, since all the signs had been pointing in that direction for some time.
But now it’s official.
The NHL has released the schedule for the first round and what we notice is that the Canadiens will not have a single game on Saturday night in their first round series.Game #1: Monday, April 21, 7:00 PM
Game #2: Wednesday, April 23, 7:00 PM

And then? Are you still on cloud nine?
The Montreal Canadiens will have a big challenge ahead of them in the coming days/weeks: beating the Washington Capitals four times before the opposite happens.
About that, if you want to learn more about the Washington Capitals, I recommend reading my colleague Marc-Olivier Cook’s article on the subject.
This season, the Canadiens have faced Washington three times. They won one of those games, namely the duel on January 10. It ended 3-2 on the road,

The Canadiens have their ticket to the playoffs: direction the first round.
We already know that the Habs will face the Washington Capitals in the first round of the playoffs and we know it won’t be easy.
The Caps will finish the season in 2nd place in the league standings… but they also have the 4th best powerplay in the NHL and the 2nd highest total of goals scored in the NHL (284). They are capable of being effective on both sides of the ice.

When Ivan Demidov played less often in Russia, Roman Rotenberg was under fire from the Québécois.
But yesterday, Ivan Demidov was used for 10:29 and he jumped 12 times on the ice. Nobody else had less than 13 shifts yesterday in Montreal and apart from Jayden Struble, nobody was used less than him.
So the question arises: will Martin St-Louis be criticized like Roman Rotenberg was?
In my opinion, there is a difference between the two cases. Rotenberg wanted to break the young man,

No surprise here.
The Canadiens announced that Joshua Roy has been assigned to the Laval Rocket. He will likely finish the season with the Canadiens’ affiliate team (unless there’s a change in the playoffs) and will not join the main team in Washington.

Yesterday, we learned that David Savard had a good chance of retiring at the end of the season. Renaud Lavoie addressed the topic.
In the scenario where he doesn’t seem to want to play elsewhere (he wanted to stay at the deadline) and considering the fact that he has slowed down, the defenseman can give his place to Alexandre Carrier and the young players who are pushing.
The notion that he could sign at a discount in Montreal this summer is becoming less popular: retirement seems more and

It’s done, the 2024-25 Montreal Canadiens are in the playoffs.
The way they got there – during the last game of the regular season, against a depleted team – doesn’t matter. From now on, each of the 16 remaining teams must try to get 16 wins to win the Stanley Cup. What happened during the regular season no longer matters, except for home ice advantage (which the Canadiens will never have due to their 17th place in the overall standings).

Last year, a woman alleged that Artemi Panarin had sexually assaulted her.
And according to information from Katie Strang, who works for The Athletic, MSG (the company that owns the Rangers) and Panarin paid the woman, who worked for the team at the time, to settle the matter confidentially.

Last December 1st, the Canadiens had the second worst record in the National League.
The team was then eight points away from the playoffs, which is a big mountain to climb. But as we now know, it happened and the Habs are among the 16 teams that are still alive.

The Montreal Canadiens have officially qualified for the playoffs. They will face the Washington Capitals starting Monday, April 21.
Needless to say, the atmosphere has just changed in the city. The Canadiens in the playoffs is going to hit differently and it will allow us to see a full Centre Bell in the playoffs for the first time since 2017.
And it’s going to feel good to see that.

It’s the worst-kept secret on earth: Alex Ovechkin loves to party.
We’ve seen him drink a beer after tying Wayne Gretzky’s record against the Blackhawks… and we’ve seen him do the same thing against the Islanders, after breaking the Great One’s record.

A goal and an assist for the captain in the most important game of the season: we’ll take it.
But it’s Suzuki’s body language that was striking tonight.
