  • The Habs are one of the best teams in the NHL when it comes to handling adversity. On Monday night, Alex Newhook again played the hero and won his second series in a row. The Newfoundlander has been one of the most important players in the playoffs, stepping up when the Canadiens needed him most. [Canadiens Highlights: Newhook Clinches The Series]
  • See! The return of the playoff classic.
  • Whenever you’re on a list with Jacques Lemaire, Larry Robinson, Frank Mahovlich and Henry Richard, you know you’re in great company. Or perhaps it would be more accurate to suggest that now that Lane Hutson is on the list he is in better company.
  • Russ Courtnall, Claude Lemieux, and Yvon Lambert are also a pretty solid list.
  • It may not have been a good goal, but it can’t be denied that Newhook has fallen short in these playoffs.
  • There are few things more enjoyable than watching a young team win an exciting game.
  • The Habs won, so we don’t need to dwell on this game for too long, but it’s ridiculous that there was no penalty when the Sabers ran down Dobbs for the second time in the series.

  • The winds of change are blowing with the Edmonton Oilers. One of those changes could involve Craig Berube. Recently, the Oilers relieved Mark Stuart and Chris Knoblauch of their coaching duties. Now, they must act quickly and accurately to add a new head coach who can help them cross the finish line. Bruce Cassidy was earlier associated with this franchise, but now a new name has emerged. [Edmonton Oilers]
  • Is Nico Hischier going to cost the New Jersey Devils more than $11 million per season for the next eight years? The latest AFP Analytics offseason contract projections indicate that may very well be the case. The Devils have a lot of answers to answer under new general manager, Sunny Mehta. [New York Devils]
  • Since ancient times, undue importance has been given to low-sized prospects. Look no further than Cole Caufield, the 5-foot-7 Montreal Canadiens 50-goal scorer who fell to 15th overall in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. The New Jersey Devils could take advantage of that bias towards smaller players by selecting Viggo Bjork if he is still available with their 12th overall pick in the first round on June 26.

Canadiens Highlights: Newhook wins series

Canadiens Highlights: Newhook wins series

The Montreal Canadiens faced the Buffalo Sabers in Game 7 of their second round series, hoping to pick up another thrilling, upset victory.

Before puck drop, the Habs announced they would be making a lineup modification, replacing fourth-line forward Joe Veleno with rookie Oliver Kapanen, who made his series debut.

It was another exciting matchup, and the Habs managed to emerge with a 3–2 victory, qualifying for the Eastern Conference Finals in the process.

Let’s look at the highlights!

veteran effect

The Canadiens got off to a great start, culminating in Philippe Danault’s first goal of the playoffs. The veteran took advantage of an excellent forecheck from Josh Anderson, not to mention a very smart pass from defenseman Caden Guhle.

At that point in the game, high-danger scoring chances were already 3–0 in favor of the Habs, and it should be noted that when the team scored first in Game 7 their score was 12–2.

important goals

Depth players continued to play a key role in the game, as evidenced by Zachary Bolduc’s third goal of the playoffs. Canadiens captain Nick Suzuki provided excellent assists in the game.

Considering that he had an up and down regular season, Bolduc’s increase in effort and results throughout the playoffs is more than admirable.

He is still a very young player and has a long career ahead of him. Enjoying a relatively successful playoff run will go a long way in instilling a certain amount of confidence.

classic adversity

One thing that is crystal clear when analyzing the Canadiens is that they have the potential to be a world-class team.

They also put together some of the worst hockey you’ll ever see, as it happened for much of the second period.

The Sabers took advantage when Jordan Greenway, with the help of several of his friends, found a way to beat Dobbs, who was creating havoc in front of the Sabers crease.

best referee on earth

The Sabers decided to restart Dobbs, and like the referees in most of these playoff games, the referees failed to do their job.

This was truly a terrible job done by experienced officers who should know better.

And this is clearly a recurring issue that has been plaguing the league.

Given that the refs decided to game manage, which is exactly what no one wants to see, the Sabers got the advantage of not killing a penalty.

Soon after, Rasmus Dahlin leveled the game.

need a hero

The final 10 minutes of the third period will go a long way in determining whether the Canadiens can truly rise to the occasion, as they have done so many times in the regular season, or whether they will showcase their lack of experience by blowing another lead in an elimination game.

The Habs played timidly for most of the second and third periods, which led to a lot of time in the defensive zone.

You could argue that he had no trace of murderous tendencies.

The good news is that they had a chance to win the game with just one more shot, as the teams were tied 2-2 in overtime.

Alex Newhook, one of the most important players for the Canadiens in the playoffs, played the hero, scoring with just a few minutes remaining in overtime.

All Montreal Canadiens stats are 5v5, via Natural Stat Trick, unless otherwise noted.

Here are the Montreal Canadiens and NHL news items you may have missed on Friday.

  • Alex Newhook attacked in Game 2 against the Buffalo Sabers and scored two goals to lead Montreal to an impressive 5–1 victory. The game ended up being one of Montreal’s best seasons of the year, with the Habs defeating Buffalo 2–0 and sweeping them 7–0 in the first round. [Canadiens Highlights: Dominant Win Evens Series Versus Sabres]
  • While the Habs have leveled their series against the Sabres, the Laval Rocket are preparing for the final game of their second-round series against the Toronto Marlies. Laval had a great year, but it will quickly be forgotten if they fall to the Marlies. [Laval Rocket Season On The Line Against Marlies]
  • Zach Benson’s frustrated chihuahua act is part of his playing style, and he’s given full marks for what he has to do to survive in a league full of Rottweilers. But it was fun to watch him try to chip Jacob Dobbs, a player who lives for this kind of grease. It’s worth noting that Dobbs was right after the failed Twitter attempt.
  • He won’t get credit for this, but it appears that Mike Matheson was trying to protect Benson from any serious injury when the Sabers forward reached the bottom of the dog pile.
  • You could tell Newhook was *a little* excited to read the starting lineup before Game 2.
  • Rockets head coach Pascal Vincent had nothing but great things to say about his captain Lucas Condotta.

  • After competing for the services of Sunny Mehta, it looks like the New Jersey Devils and Toronto Maple Leafs may be facing off against each other for another front office executive. After learning he was also a candidate for the job in Toronto, the Devils were not going to let Mehta slip through their fingers. [New Jersey Devils]
  • The Toronto Maple Leafs beat the odds and won the NHL draft lottery. That stroke of luck has completely changed the narrative around the moribund franchise. Just a day earlier, all one could talk about was the team’s appointment of new general manager John Chayka, which was being widely criticized. Now, it’s all about that No. 1 pick in next month’s draft. [Toronto Maple Leafs]
  • Colorado Avalanche superstar center Nathan MacKinnon has already locked in a spot on the Maurice Richard Trophy as the NHL’s leading goalscorer in 2025-26. Now he will get a chance to win the Hart Trophy as league MVP for the second time in his career. [Colorado Avalanche]

Olympic reactions, Rickenbacker potential, Newhook

Here are the Montreal Canadiens news items, stories and content you may have missed on Wednesday.

montreal canadiens news

Landing at No. 4 in our annual Montreal Canadiens prospect rankings is two-way defenseman David Rickenbacker. He’s one of the most polarizing young players in the system, and while his injuries and lack of professional experience have led some to label him useless, it’s too early to give up on the 21-year-old blueliner. Whatever happens, it’s time to readjust our expectations. [Canadiens Top 20 Prospects – No. 4 Enigmatic Reinbacher]

Even though Juraj Slafkowski was a dominant force at the Olympics, Slovakia failed to bring home a medal, leaving a sour taste in their mouth. Ideally, he’ll use his Olympic frustration to motivate him in the final stretch of the season.

Captain Nick Suzuki was quick to praise two of his Team Canada teammates: Florida Panthers forward Brad Marchand, and Vegas Golden Knights winger Mark Stone.

Injured forward Alex Newhook will be in uniform when the Habs face the New York Islanders on Thursday. This marks an early return from an ankle injury that required surgical intervention.

Adam Engstrom and Jacob Fowler (ill) were both unavailable for the Laval Rocket as they faced the Toronto Marlies on Wednesday night. Unsurprisingly, Laval fell behind by a good margin and lost a 4–1 decision, with the only goal coming from Luc Tuch (9).

Things went from bad to worse for Engstrom, as he would miss four weeks of competition with an upper body injury.

Team USA goaltender Connor Hellebuyck can’t stop winning. At the White House on Tuesday, the President of the United States, Donald Trump, awarded the gold medal goaltender the Presidential Medal of Freedom – considered the US government’s highest civilian honor. [New Jersey Devils]

MLSE head Keith Pelley sent a letter to Toronto Maple Leafs ticket holders on Wednesday. A sort of ‘State of the Union’ for the team, if you’ll pardon the expression. The letter explained why they could not publicly discuss the team’s deadline plans and their continued goal of producing a Stanley Cup winner. [Toronto Maple Leafs]

The Bruins’ gold medal winners are back in Boston. Charlie McAvoy and Jeremy Swayman joined most of Team USA at the White House on Tuesday. Swayman took to the ice for practice on Wednesday, and Sturm confirmed that both skaters would be on the ice for the morning skate on Thursday. [Boston Bruins]
