Oliver Kapanen is not the big name to watch among the Canadiens’ prospects right now: it’s Jacob Fowler. We wonder if he will sign his entry-level contract soon.
But Kapanen is still worth watching.
With the end of his season in Sweden, the Canadiens’ prospect is free to finish the season in Quebec, either with the Laval Rocket or the Montreal Canadiens.
What will this bring?
Kapanen, who could switch between the two teams, was a strong candidate to go to Laval. But with what&r

The Canadiens practiced this morning at the Bell Centre in preparation for their game tonight against the Panthers.

Tony Marinaro always does things more intensely than others. Calling Boston, calling funeral homes, calling mothers, calling… everyone.
And there, on this April 1st, he has the April fool of the year.
During his show, he talked about his future at the professional level. We saw him become emotional and leave the studio saying that it wasn’t working and that he had done what he could to make it work.Of course, since it’s April 1st, there were doubts.
However, the fact that it l

Last year, when Lane Hutson was eliminated in the NCAA, it took less than 24 hours for him to sign with the Habs.
This year, when Ryan Leonard and Gabriel Perreault were eliminated in the NCAA, they also needed less than 24 hours to sign with Washington and New York.
These cases happen quickly. After all, we know that these guys are going to burn a year of their contract in the NHL.
But Jacob Fowler’s case is different. We’re not sure if the goalie, who’s moving on to the pros,

Marc Bergevin has spoken little to the media since he lost his job as GM of the Canadiens in November 2021.
He spoke to a few English-language media outlets last year in what was seen as an attempt to get his name out there for a potential GM position across the National Hockey League.
But he hasn’t spoken to French-language media here.
And now, for only the second time since he left Montreal, Bergevin has spoken publicly – without really knowing why he said yes this time. This time,

Last night in the NHL, eight teams were in action.
None of these games really had any importance for the Canadiens.
Here are the results and highlights anyway:That’s a wrap on a four-game Monday that saw the @DallasStars (49-21-4, 102 points) move within four points of the idle Jets (51-19-4, 106 points) for first place in the League standings.#NHLStats: https://t.co/GSkrBQZSQ7 pic.twitter.com/4gEVD31r9x

Lane Hutson is currently in the second-to-last season of his entry-level contract in the National Hockey League (NHL). The Habs have time to negotiate with him before reaching an agreement on his new contract.
Thanks to his performances this season, Hutson could already be in a position to receive one of the most lucrative contracts in the history of the Canadiens.
The record belongs to Carey Price with his annual average of $10.5 million, but the bar to be exceeded among defenders is that of P.

The race for the Calder Trophy is nearing its end and Lane Hutson is trying to solidify his position as the favorite to win the rookie of the year award in the National Hockey League (NHL).
For fans of the Habs who see him play every game, the answer is clear: Hutson should win the Calder Trophy. However, fans elsewhere in the NHL do not agree with this statement, often launching criticism at Lane Hutson.
On the TVA Sports show JiC on Monday, Pittsburgh Penguins veteran defenseman Kristopher Let

Michael Hage’s season in the NCAA is over and it’s now time for him to take stock.
Last week, we explained that he would like to improve his work in the face-off circle, but that’s not the only aspect he wants to work on.
The first-round pick of the Canadiens in 2024 wants to add a few pounds to his frame and improve his physical game. This is what he revealed in an interview with Marco D’Amico of RG.org.#GoHabsGo prospect Michael Hage breaks down what he learned from his

According to information reported by Scott Soshnick and Eben Novy-Williams of Sportico, Rogers has agreed with the NHL on the terms of a new 12-year contract for television rights in Canada.
The total amount of the agreement would be $11 billion CAD, or $7.7 billion USD.
This amount is more than double what Rogers paid in the last 12-year agreement, which was signed in 2013.BREAKING: The @NHL & @Rogers have agreed to a new, 12-year Canadian TV deal that will pay the league about $7.7 billion

Since the beginning of the season, Lane Hutson has been making headlines for good reasons.
Nick Suzuki also, by the way.
Both the Habs players are having good campaigns and they deserve to get attention. A lot of attention, even.
The captain is establishing himself as one of the best centers in the NHL and meanwhile, Hutson is doing the same at his defenseman position.
But it goes even further when we look at the best passers in the league. Why?
Because the two guys are in the top 10 (tied with

Florian Xhekaj’s first season as a professional is not going unnoticed.
We’ve talked about him several times this season on DLC because the little brother of Arber is perfecting his role with the Rocket.
He hits, he’s frustrating, he’s a pest… and on top of that, he scores goals.
Anthony Martineau met with him and TVA Sports published an article about the interview.
The article can be found by clicking on the link here.
But in the text, there’s one sentence i

Oliver Kapanen and his club (Timrå IK) were facing elimination today.
And they lost with a score of 1-0.
Result? The prospect’s season with the Canadiens is officially over in Sweden.
This means Kapanen is now eligible to join the Rocket… or the Canadiens. And at that level, maybe the Habs have a better interest in bringing him to Montreal because there is no depth right now.
After all, Martin St-Louis is not able to trust Joshua Roy. Michael Pezzetta seems to have surpassed h

Lane Hutson put on quite a show yesterday afternoon in Florida.
He accumulated three assists in the Canadiens’ win over the Panthers and was electrifying in the offensive zone. He now has 59 points this season and the more it goes, the more it makes sense to believe he has an edge in the Calder Trophy race.
In Jason Demers’ eyes, it’s clear: the trophy belongs to the Canadiens player.Lane Hutson is the Calder trophy winner at this point . Unless Dustin Wolf gets Calgary into th

At the moment, the Boston College Eagles are holding attention.
Now that the team is eliminated, the trio of stars (Ryan Leonard, Gabriel Perreault, and Jacob Fowler) is eligible to sign with Washington, New York, and Montreal.
In the case of Leonard, it’s official. In the case of Perreault, it’s imminent. And in the case of Fowler, it’s coming.HELLO, LENO
The Washington Capitals have signed forward Ryan Leonard to a three-year entry-level contract. Leonard’s contract wil

Yesterday’s game had people talking about the Canadiens.
Why. Because Niko Mikkola, at the end of the game, made an unnecessary shot at the end of the game. He clearly had frustration in his body and he wanted to hurt people.

Yesterday, Joshua Roy did not play. Michael Pezzetta took the place of Arber Xhekaj.
This has been talked about a lot because Roy had already skipped his turn during Friday night’s game and because the fact of taking out Xhekaj and rolling with six defensemen was a more notable change.
But yesterday, Pezzetta surpassed Roy for Martin St-Louis. And if it’s due to an injury, the habs are hiding it from us.
Will it be just for one game? I don’t know. Was it simply because the coac

In recent weeks, when I was asked if I believed in the Canadiens’ chances of making the playoffs, I always replied that it was going to be really difficult.
I’m a numbers guy and having a 20% chance of qualifying showed that it was going to be tough.
But since then, the Habs have given themselves a chance. And it’s not because they’re better than I thought: it’s because the other teams in the race are also losing very often. Too often.

Right now,

The habs have only nine games left to play in their last push towards the playoffs (or the no man’s land).
The team is currently holding the eighth and last playoff spot in the East… but no less than four other teams are seriously eyeing this position: the Rangers, the Blue Jackets, the Red Wings, and the Islanders.
According to MoneyPuck, the habs have a 39% chance of finishing the season in eighth place in their conference, ahead of the Rangers (33%) and the Blue Jackets (15%).

Jacob Fowler had hoped to go further than last year with Boston College. And as the Eagles lost in the Frozen Four final last year, the goal was clear: to win everything.
But the team of Ryan Leonard, Gabriel Perreault, and Fowler, to name a few, didn’t really manage to build momentum once the season ended.
As a result, the team is eliminated. And Fowler must be devastated.
Now, as you probably know, Jacob Fowler is now free to sign with the Habs. And since he’s not expected to retur

Last night in the NHL, there were eight games on the schedule.
In the afternoon, the Canadiens were one of the teams in action.
