Montreal Canadiens Retooling: They Obviously Aren't All In

Montreal Canadiens Retooling: They Obviously Aren't All In

January 16th, 2021 The Montreal Canadiens are entering their fourth season since the start of the retool, which is just another word for rebuild, and the fanbase is re-energized. The team assembled looks far better than any assembled in recent history and there is hope for a long and exciting season.  Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin has...
Canadiens Don’t Need A Depth Defenseman Like Chara Anyway

Canadiens Don’t Need A Depth Defenseman Like Chara Anyway

January 3rd, 2021 At this point, the Montreal Canadiens need another depth defenseman like a third arm. It sounds good in practice, but it certainly wouldn’t look or feel right, especially if we’re talking Zdeno Chara. Chara Persona Non Grata in Montreal It’s not simply that Chara, who just signed with the Washington Capitals, is a former...
Canadiens New Year’s Resolutions for 2021

Canadiens New Year’s Resolutions for 2021

December 31st, 2020 As the calendar flips past 2020 (thankfully), it’s time to make some meaningful New Year's resolutions. For many, it might be as simple getting outside more after upwards of nine months spent in relative isolation. For the Montreal Canadiens, the standards are somewhat higher. They kind of have to be after a relatively impressive...
Canadiens Add Frolik as Affordable 13th Forward

Canadiens Add Frolik as Affordable 13th Forward

December 25th, 2020 Montreal Canadiens, general manager Marc Bergevin may have just added a missing piece to a potential contender in the NHL’s new North Division for the 2020-21 season. Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin - (THE CANADIAN PRESS/Ryan Remiorz) If the newly signed Michael Frolik pans out for the Habs, he has the potential...
Canadiens: Marc Bergevin's 5 Biggest Mistakes

Canadiens: Marc Bergevin's 5 Biggest Mistakes

December 22nd, 2020 Marc Bergevin has been the general manager (GM) of the Montreal Canadiens for eight years and has had his ups and downs. He seems very good at making trades but lacks the ability to draw in good free agents. Marc Bergevin, Montreal Canadiens, May 25, 2014 (Lisa Gansky Photography) Although it started out rough, his drafting has...
The Time the Canadiens Signed Defenseman Karl Alzner

The Time the Canadiens Signed Defenseman Karl Alzner

December 2nd, 2020 Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin put an end to a particularly harrowing chapter of his eight-year tenure this offseason. Of course, the Canadiens made the playoffs for the first time since 2017. However, maybe more significantly, three years after signing defenseman Karl Alzner to a five-year, $23,125,000 deal,...
Montreal Canadiens Offseason Grades: A Dramatic Shift in Expectations

Montreal Canadiens Offseason Grades: A Dramatic Shift in Expectations

November 25th, 2020 This offseason has been especially odd. Not only did it begin in October, when the NHL season usually starts, but Montreal Canadiens fans seem excited about the moves made by general manager Marc Bergevin. Over the last few seasons, he has been a polarizing figure in the city, and many have voiced their displeasure with his decisions....
Top 5 Canadiens Draft Picks in the Bergevin Era

Top 5 Canadiens Draft Picks in the Bergevin Era

November 22nd, 2020 On May 2, 2012, the Montreal Canadiens announced that former NHL defenseman Marc Bergevin would be serving as the team’s new general manager.

Canadiens Face Difficult Choices with Kraken Expansion Draft

Canadiens Face Difficult Choices with Kraken Expansion Draft

November 19th, 2020 The NHL is one season away from welcoming their 32nd franchise into the league. Before the Seattle Kraken join the Pacific Division, they will need to build a roster, their first step in that will be to complete the 2021 NHL Expansion Draft. This draft, much like the draft in 2017 for the Vegas Golden Knights, will give the...
Canadiens’ Window is Open for 2020-21 Season

Canadiens’ Window is Open for 2020-21 Season

November 17th, 2020 The NHL’s salary cap can be a fickle mistress. True, with it set to stay flat at $81.5 million this coming season (and potentially for the foreseeable future), it hasn’t shown many teams much love recently. The Montreal Canadiens had been a notable exception heading into this offseason, but things change, though. Bergevin's Big...
Canadiens Fans No Longer Divided When it Comes to Bergevin

Canadiens Fans No Longer Divided When it Comes to Bergevin

November 8th, 2020 Marc Bergevin has had a whirlwind career as general manager (GM) of the Montreal Canadiens. He's made mistakes; he has - subjectively - sat idle when he should have been adding pieces, and he has proved he is very good at making trades and managing assets. However, during his eight-year run as GM, he has done one thing consistently the...
Brendan Gallagher Means Everything to the Canadiens

Brendan Gallagher Means Everything to the Canadiens

November 1st, 2020 Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin has made a lot of big moves this offseason to improve his team. While the additions of Jake Allen, Josh Anderson, Joel Edmundson, and Tyler Toffoli are each impressive in their own way, no move was more significant than Bergevin’s decision to sign Brendan Gallagher to a six-year...
Senators Signing Galchenyuk Can Still Haunt Canadiens

Senators Signing Galchenyuk Can Still Haunt Canadiens

October 30th, 2020 Rumors of Alex Galchenyuk’s demise as an NHL player are greatly exaggerated. He may not be the player he was with the Montreal Canadiens, but, at 26 years old, he still has time to reinvent himself with the Ottawa Senators. Galchenyuk Signs with Senators Having just been signed by the Sens to a one-year, $1.05 million deal,...
Canadiens Have Easy Decision Between Chiarot & Edmundson

Canadiens Have Easy Decision Between Chiarot & Edmundson

October 21st, 2020 On the plus side, the Montreal Canadiens’ log jam on the defensive corps’ left side won’t last, one way or another. Newly fortified with the acquisition of Joel Edmundson from the Carolina Hurricanes, it also features the likes of rookie Alexander Romanov in theory and incumbents Ben Chiarot and Brett Kulak. Kulak may very...
3 Reasons Why Canadiens Will Reach Round 2 in 2021

3 Reasons Why Canadiens Will Reach Round 2 in 2021

October 16th, 2020 The Montreal Canadiens may have finished 24th in the overall standings in 2019-20, but they nevertheless ended up as one of the top three Atlantic Division teams, making the playoffs in unexpected fashion. There’s little reason why the Habs can’t do it again in 2021. In fact, there are several reasons why they are poised to...
