Canadiens: Dach’s Lethargic Play Proves He’s Not The Solution For The First Line The Montreal Canadiens want competitiveness from their players, and last night, Kirby Dach showed a clear lack of it, not for the first time. For the Habs to be successful, they need a competitive fir...

My latest article for @TheHockeyNews is about Kirby Dach and the Canadiens' first line: thehockeynews.com/nhl/montreal... #GoHabsGo #CH #Canadiens #Habs #THN

Sabres Reportedly Out On Thomas, Are The Canadiens Still In? According to Darren Dreger, the Buffalo Sabres are not willing to meet the St. Louis Blues' asking price for Robert Thomas, what does that mean for the Canadiens?

There are some developments to report in the Robert Thomas case, the latest in my article for @TheHockeyNews : thehockeynews.com/nhl/montreal... #GoHabsGo #CH #Canadiens #Habs #THN

Canadiens Lose Thrilling Game In San Jose The Montreal Canadiens lost the first game of their road trip on the West coast, but it was in thrilling fashion.

My takeaways from last night's game against the Sharks for @TheHockeyNews : thehockeynews.com/nhl/montreal... #GoHabsGo #CH #Canadiens #Habs #THN

The Sharks make it 6-5 on a power play for too-many-men (6 on 5 ironically) #GoHabsGo

They're taking us to OT right? 10 PM start, of course they are taking us to OT lol #GoHabsGo

Dobes got fed up there after getting hit by a stick and replied in kind, got to love the fight in this guy. #GoHabsGo

Newhook with his second of the game, this one on the power play 5-5 #GoHabsGo

Demidov draws a penalty...can they tie it up? #GoHabsGo

A bit less left to do with Newhook making it 5-4 San Jose #GoHabsGo

Demidov with a power play goal, 5-3 San Jose, but a lot of work left to be done to get back in this one. #GoHabsGo

Yeah...don't put Celebrini on the power play, 5-2 Sharks #GoHabsGo

Yeah...don't put Celebrini on the power play, 5-2 Sharks #GoHabsGo

There might be a bit of frustration for the Habs there... #goHabsGo

And the Sharks make it 4-2 as Dach can't withstand San Jose's forecheck #GoHabsGo

Celibrini scores, his hard shot goes through Dobes' five-hole, 3-2 Sharks #GoHabsGo

Michael Misa jumps on a loose puck, 2-2 #GoHabsGo Me when I hear that name:

Askarov was brilliant on that PK and frustrated Caufield with an excellent save. Still 2-1 MTL #GoHabsGo

Oh que Pierre était prêt là-dessus: La passe, le tir et le...l'arrêt lol #GoHabsGo

Matheson shoots, and Danault deflects (I think), 2-1 Montreal #goHabsGo

Big first period for Dobes, he might have only faced 8 shots, but he did save the day on two big giveaways from Caufield and Slafkovsky. Speaking of Slafkovsky, the no-look back passes have got to stop. 1-1 after 20 minutes #GoHabsGo

The youngs guns go tic-tac-toe in the Habs' zone and Graf completes the play 1-1 #GoHabsGo

The Canadiens worked on odd-men rushes prevention during the Olympic break, doesn't look like it tonight so far #GoHabsGo

Oliver Kapanen serves a cup of coffee to Yaroslav Askarov thanks to the D's screen, his 19th goal 1-0 Habs #GoHabsGo

Dobes with a big stick play there to cut the pass in front to Sherwood, feels like there's a play on words to be made there but it's gone 10:00 PM, gimme a break #GoHabsGo

Captain Clutch indeed with two goals in the shootout, she kept up entertained all the way to the Habs game, the Victoire gets two points and now has a three-point lead over Boston but the Fleet has games in hand #GoVictoireGo #PWHL

You know what they say about best laid plans… but wait and see as this might just be a lot of noise…

Canadiens To Battle Sharks For The First Of Two Duels In Two Weeks The Montreal Canadiens will kick off their California road trip with a game against the San Jose Shark on Tuesday night, here's everything you need to know ahead of the game.

What you need to know ahead of tonight’s game against the Sharks in my latest article for @TheHockeyNews : thehockeynews.com/nhl/montreal... #GoHabsGo #CH #Canadiens #Habs #THN

Not really, as I say in the article, they’ve said they’d be willing to overpay for the right piece and a first line centre gives them an incredible center line. Something that’s really hard to get…there’s no guarantee another first line center will be available next year ;)

Canadiens Would Need A Fantastic Offer To Net Robert Thomas The Montreal Canadiens are reportedly interested in Robert Thomas, but they aren't the only ones, and they'll need quite the offer to win that derby.

My latest article for @TheHockeyNews is about what it would likely take for the Montreal Canadiens to lend Robert Thomas: thehockeynews.com/nhl/montreal... #GoHabsGo #CH #Canadiens #Habs #THN

Could Canadiens Rookie Become Trade Bait? If the Montreal Canadiens go big game hunting ahead of the deadline, they'll have to be ready to sacrifice some good assets and not just spare parts.

My latest article for @Thehockeynews is about the fact that if the Canadiens are to swing a big deal, fans should be ready for the possibility that one of their rookie could be part of the equation: thehockeynews.com/nhl/montreal... #GoHabsGo #CH #Canadiens #Habs #THN
