First period
Kirby Dach gets to take the opening faceoff, a nice reward for his recent play.
The top line is forced to play some defence as a pass goes awry and catches them all behind the play.
Samuel Montembeault sees the first shot sent his way blocked in front, but then doesn’t adjust properly for the rebound on a puck that was sitting right in front of him. Kailer Yamamoto opens the scoring.
Josh Anderson makes a nice play by driving down the wall to attract some pre...

Keep an eye on the Montreal Canadiens. Not only are they as hot as anyone on the ice, sitting atop the Atlantic Division for the first time in a very long time, GM Kent Hughes is up to his old tricks off the ice. Hughes has been making a ton of calls recently to gauge who exactly is available, and that includes some big names as Hughes apparently won't be shy when it comes to potentially making another significant deal.

Thursday night saw yet another overtime game for the Montreal Canadiens, succumbing this time to the New Jersey Devils 4-3 and remaining unbeaten in regulation through their last five games. It was a tight contest, with perhaps a few missed opportunities to secure the second point in the standings, but they remain among the best teams in the Eastern Conference in part due to picking up these spare points by getting to overtime.
The standings are certainly encouraging, and more so are the ...

When Kaiden Guhle broke into the NHL with the Montreal Canadiens back in 2022, he was immediately thrust into a situation that was not conducive to success for a rookie defenceman in the NHL. Newly acquired Mike Matheson missed the a good chunk of the opening of the season, as did Joel Edmundson, leaving Martin St-Louis’s defence core with veterans David Savard and Chris Wideman, sophomore Jonathan Kovacevic, and a group of rookies including Guhle himself.

First period
Josh Anderson skates the puck down the wing with Joe Veleno heading to the net, but no pass comes, and that line continues to accomplish very little on the ice.
Cody Glass opens the scoring after Alex Newhook and Oliver Kapanen collided at the Montreal blue line, giving him space to enter the zone and get an off-wing shot on goal.
The Canadiens keep the shooting percentage perfect in this game as Kirby Dach has a shot from Noah Dobson flip up off of him high in th...

The Philadelphia Flyers are coming off one of the most exciting games of their young season after winning and losing and then winning again against the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre. And because of that powerful performance, head coach Rick Tocchet is going with the same lineup — an untouched roster to hopefully get another two points over the Nashville Predators.
The last time these two teams met in this season was just a week ago and the Flyers earned a 4-1 win thanks to two goa...
