Best Blues' Goaltender by Decade

January 7th, 2021 As we round out the by decade lists for the St. Louis Blues forwards, defensemen, and now goaltenders, there are a lot of players to consider given the rich history of the franchise. Out of all the great goaltenders that have played in St. Louis, only one could lead them to the Stanley Cup victory of 2019, Jordan Binnington. He has...

Canadiens Signings Poised to Make the Greatest Impact

December 11th, 2020 Following an offseason to remember, it must be hard for Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin to choose between his signings.

Montreal Canadiens Offseason Grades: A Dramatic Shift in Expectations

Montreal Canadiens Offseason Grades: A Dramatic Shift in Expectations

How the Canadiens Have Improved for 2021 Season

November 14th, 2020 The Montreal Canadiens are coming off a regular season in which there was almost no way to go but "up."

Worst 3 Canadiens Contracts Heading into 2021

November 11th, 2020 There is little denying the Montreal Canadiens have several bad contracts on their roster.

He clearly would have ranked on this list of the three worst contracts currently on the...

Canadiens Should Pull for a Canadian Division in 2020-21

October 27th, 2020 The level of uncertainty in the air is palpable in the NHL these days.
