THESE Montreal Canadiens Defensemen LEADING The NHL!

The Montreal Canadiens may have one of the most productive blue lines in the NHL right now. Lane Hutson, Noah Dobson, and Mike Matheson are leading the league in 5-on-5 scoring among defensemen, and their impact goes far beyond points.

In this video, we break down:

How Lane Hutson’s transition to the NHL has accelerated the Canadiens’ offense
Why Noah Dobson has evolved into a legitimate elite two-way defenseman
Mike Matheson’s role as the driving force in the Habs’ transition game
What this means for the Canadiens’ long-term defensive core construction
How this group compares to top NHL blue lines across the league

We look at usage, deployment, 5v5 scoring rates, elite puck-moving metrics, and how Martin St. Louis’ system empowers defensemen to attack.

If you're a fan of Habs roster strategy, player development, analytics, and future core building, this is the deep dive for you.
