Montreal Canadiens: Fourth Line Additions
Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin didn’t wait until the trade deadline to revamp and as most seem to agree, upgrade his fourth line. Whether more changes are still to come or not remains to be seen but for now, Bergevin has held true to his word in not trading away any of his valuable […]
Nate Thompson Trade: Montreal Bound, Picks Exchange
Multiple merry-go-rounds continue for the Montreal Canadiens; the fourth line experiments, the middle round draft picks and… wait, this is one that has not been seen since Manny Malhotra: a guy acquired for his prowess on the dot.

Habs Recap: Week of February 9th
February 5th: Anaheim Ducks Tuesday against the (Mighty) Ducks scoring opened up with Brendan Gallagher putting the Habs up (1-0) at 7:11.

Dealing Back For Dale: Weise Returns To Montreal
Questions for this team began to circle with the season getting on towards the homestretch; ironically, one of the bigger questions was “who can this team acquire to upgrade the 4th line?” all after Marc Bergevin had been much maligned and verbally taken to the cleaners for almost exclusively acquiring 4th line forwards in seasons […]
Montreal Canadiens: The Other Guys
