Josh Anderson's Canadiens Debut Should Make Marc Bergevin Proud

Josh Anderson's Canadiens Debut Should Make Marc Bergevin Proud

January 16th, 2021 It's only been one game, but I'm ready to reconsider my stance on Josh Anderson's contract. Okay, maybe not entirely, but his performance against the Toronto Maple Leafs on opening night certainly raised some eyebrows. If he can continue on this pace, Bergevin's shelling out of $5.5 million per year for Anderson won't seem as risky as...

Canadiens’ Kotkaniemi Set to Make Strides in Third Season

January 9th, 2021 Ten games certainly do not make a career, but Montreal Canadiens forward Jesperi Kotkaniemi’s 10-game postseason performance certainly made a difference. If nothing else, it served as vindication in some fashion. Kotkaniemi's Rookie Season to Remember Truth be told, a single season generally doesn't make a career either,...
Montreal Canadiens' Experience at Center a Concern

Montreal Canadiens' Experience at Center a Concern

January 6th, 2021 The 2020 Playoffs gave the Montreal Canadiens' young centers an opportunity to develop in the pressure cooker that only elimination hockey can provide.

Canadiens Could See Nick Suzuki Make the Top Line in 2020-21 Season

December 5th, 2020 After a great rookie campaign, the Montreal Canadiens' Nick Suzuki will likely expect more of himself in his sophomore season that should start in the next couple of months. It isn't possible to project his point totals without a confirmed number of games, however, one thing is certain, Suzuki should have an expanded role in 2020-21,...

Canadiens’ Top 5 Keys to a Successful 2020-21 Season

November 22nd, 2020 It needs to be said: For the Montreal Canadiens to have a successful 2020-21 season, there needs to be a 2020-21 NHL season in the first place.

Canadiens Need Suzuki to Center Their Top Line

Canadiens Need Suzuki to Center Their Top Line

November 5th, 2020 To be clear, center Phillip Danault is far from holding the Montreal Canadiens hostage.
