Episode Details

Montreal Canadiens’ goalie future just got a lot more stable — and maybe smarter. Once seen as trade bait, Samuel Montembeault’s value has skyrocketed as the goalie market cooled. With top targets like Edmonton and Toronto locking down their netminders, the Canadiens are now in a position to keep Montembeault, who’s proven himself as a reliable, team-first player who loves Montreal. Rather than rush Jacob Fowler into the NHL, the team’s wisely letting him develop in the minors — while giving Jakub Dobes a real shot at becoming the starter. Depth over desperation? That’s the new plan — and it’s looking like the right one.
