If the Red Wings suspend Larkin, here's the math.
His salary is $8,000,000 for the 2026–2027 season.
Spread out over the 194 days of the regular season.
$41,237 lost per day in the event of a suspension.

We saw him score a goal last night from an almost impossible angle against the St. Louis Blues. He scored a sniper's goal, to put it another way.
But at today's practice, the Quebec native made sure we wouldn't forget just how good his shot is. Why do I say that? Because Bolduc shattered a window with a shot during the Canadiens' practice.

Oliver Kapanen lost his spot at center on the top line… and Alex Newhook took his place in practice.
We've talked about this in recent days, but Oliver Kapanen just didn't have what it takes to lead the first line. Add to that the fact that he's gone scoreless in his last 22 games (including the recent playoffs), and you get the result we're seeing today.

In the midst of a rebuild, it was a risk on the Canadiens' part.

As you can see in the photo that will follow a little later in this article, the Habs have opted for a mostly white jersey with red and silver accents. Blue, on the other hand, is practically absent… except for a (very small) stripe on each sleeve.
The result is quite di]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/canadiens-a-first-look-at-the-hometown-remix-jersey-is-circulating/Tue, 27 Oct 2026 21:13:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/canadiens-a-first-look-at-the-hometown-remix-jersey-is-circulating/https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-megan-park-universe/Tue, 27 Oct 2026 21:07:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-megan-park-universe/ His first two seasons weren't great, as he played under Pascal Vincent in Laval.
But things have been going well for him since Daniel Jacob took over as head coach of the Rocket.
The Canadiens prospect, who was selected in the first round of the 2022 draft (alongside Juraj Slafkovsky and Lane Hutson), has tallied six points—including three goals—in his first nine games of the season in the American Hockey League.

His attitude (for better or worse) draws more attention than his performances… which isn't necessarily a bad thing. He's making more mistakes than he is pulling off great plays right now.
All this to say that the young player is good,]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/junior-caminero-wants-a-contract-like-juan-sotos/Tue, 27 Oct 2026 19:30:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/junior-caminero-wants-a-contract-like-juan-sotos/ And you know what?
That will be the case (again) tonight, as the Habs head to St. Louis to take on the (surprising) Blues. Pierre LeBrun reported the news in a segment (RDS):Pierre LeBrun confirms that Detroit Red Wings AGM Kris Draper will once again be watching the Montreal Canadiens tonight.
For those keeping track, that's now three of the Canadiens' last four games.

He'll face off against Jordan Binnington for the Blues.
It would have made sense to start Jakub Dobes—who lives in St. Louis during the summer—to keep Fowler out of the lineup against the Stars. But it seems the Habs want to win tonight and are taking a short-term approach, putting Thursday's decision on hold.

But right now, things are looking up for the player who earns $11.6 million per season for nearly six more years.
With the salary cap rising, the question is being asked more and more: Will the Canucks find a taker?

Keep in mind that Fowler started the season in the minors.
What's impressing everyone is that his technique is even better than last year. Why? Because he's even faster than he was.

He singled out two teams to watch closely: the 49ers and the Chicago Bears.
Schultz has heard both teams linked to several defensive players, including pass-rushing specialists Josh Sweat and Khalil Mack, as well as defensive tackle DeForest Buckne]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-49ers-want-to-make-a-big-move-before-the-trade-deadline/Tue, 27 Oct 2026 11:00:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-49ers-want-to-make-a-big-move-before-the-trade-deadline/ This will be a first for the 56-year-old artist, who has never before taken the stage at the famous halftime show, one of the most-watched performances on the planet.

Freddy Peralta and Robert Gasser were on the mound. The Rays especially needed Peralta to step up against his former team to avoid another loss.
The Rays' pitcher allowed runners on base early in the game but didn't give up any runs.
The Brewers struck first. In the third inning, Christian Yelich and Willi]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-brewers-crushed-the-rays-in-game-3/Tue, 27 Oct 2026 04:11:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-brewers-crushed-the-rays-in-game-3/ Of course, there are the most obvious ones: Dylan Larkin and Simon Edvinsson, but there are others that have people talking.
Among them is the situation with Quinn Hughes and his much-discussed contract extension with the Wild, which doesn't seem to be moving forward.
Perhaps it's time to consider trading Quinn Hughes—he could even be traded as a loan player.

That means a big crowd is expected.
And sure enough, Tropicana Field in St. Pete is packed tonight. You don't see that every day, to be honest.
The problem? There are quite a few Brewers fans in the stands.
Maybe 30, 35 percent Brewers fans here. Yelich and Contreras are getting some serious cheers from the crowd.

However, he more than makes up for it with his strong defensive skills and his performance at the faceoff circle. This season, he's won 55.2% of his faceoffs.
Plus, keep in mind that he's one of only two left-handed centers on the team, along with Alex Newhook (who's also excellent at the faceoff circle, with a 57.]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/a-two-year-contract-for-phillip-danault-would-make-a-lot-of-sense/Tue, 27 Oct 2026 01:01:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/a-two-year-contract-for-phillip-danault-would-make-a-lot-of-sense/ He dominated last night and helped the Canadiens pick up two (very) important points against the Winnipeg Jets.
And it's especially the way he stepped up in the game that continues to impress today, a little less than 24 hours after Montreal's victory.

Since the trade that sent him to New Jersey, the star goaltender hasn't yet opened up about his departure from Winnipeg. He sent a (brief) message to fans of his former team over the weekend, but… that's it.

Here's a recap of all the action.
1. Jayden Struble scores his first goal in Nashville
The former Habs player seems to be really finding his footing with the Nashville Predators, where he's getting more ice time than he did with the Habs as a reliable defenseman.
Struble has never been the most offensive]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/top-5-jayden-struble-scores-a-stunning-first-goal-with-the-preds/Sun, 25 Oct 2026 13:09:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/top-5-jayden-struble-scores-a-stunning-first-goal-with-the-preds/ The Frenchman was attending the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New Orleans Saints, held at the Stade de France as part of the 2026 NFL Paris Games. He shared the story in an interview with France Télévisions.

Several fan favorites who once played in Montreal turned out for this]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/guillaume-latendresse-and-paul-byron-steal-the-show-at-the-all-stars-game/Sun, 25 Oct 2026 03:12:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/guillaume-latendresse-and-paul-byron-steal-the-show-at-the-all-stars-game/ This will be the Habs' first outdoor game since 2017.
In fact, even though this will be the Habs' fifth outdoor game, Montreal fans are still waiting for an outdoor game to be held in the Quebec City metropolitan area.
For the occasion, the Canadiens players practiced in the evening at 8 p.m. (originally scheduled]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/photos-the-canadiens-evening-outdoor-practice/Sun, 25 Oct 2026 02:37:00 +0100https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/photos-the-canadiens-evening-outdoor-practice/ As for the Toronto Blue Jays, eight prospects are currently playing there—some to make up for time lost due to injury, others to learn a new position, and still others to work on their mechanics.
Here's how things are going for them, starting with the position players.
First up is catcher Aaron Parker, who plays a position where the Blue Jay]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/fall-league-heres-how-the-blue-jays-prospects-are-doing/Sun, 25 Oct 2026 01:00:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/fall-league-heres-how-the-blue-jays-prospects-are-doing/ There was no longer a spot for him with the Habs, and the team decided to send him somewhere closer to his family.
Except that Gallagher is clearly struggling this season. The veteran has just one point (an assist) in 11 games, with a plus-minus of -4, and he was benched for one game.
But despite all that, Gally certainly doesn't sound like]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/brendan-gallagher-isnt-really-thinking-about-retirement/Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:08:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/brendan-gallagher-isnt-really-thinking-about-retirement/ The 2026 playoffs are putting the catcher in the spotlight.

It remains to be seen whether his time off will affect his performance.
But of course, for many people in Winnipeg, this situation is taking a hard hit.

The problem is that it ended on a bit of a sour note. Ronald Acuña Jr., in particular, saw his season end on a bad note, as he was booed by his own fans and deleted his Braves photos from social media.
It's therefore interesting to note that Cameron Maybin, wh]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/ronald-acua-jr-would-like-to-leave-atlanta/Sat, 24 Oct 2026 20:30:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/ronald-acua-jr-would-like-to-leave-atlanta/ Last spring's almost unexpected run of success certainly added fuel to the fire.
As a result, as our cousins say, expectations have started to rise, and fans want things to move faster. After all, the window seems to be opening…
“We need a second center, a right-handed defenseman, and more grit—now!”

We know the team will be wearing a new uniform for the occasion. The guys have been practicing in different gear for the past few days in preparation for this game… and we've noticed that the goalies, too, will be dressed up for the occasion.

Much of the answer lies in the question itself. It's important to know how to draft well, but it's essential to master the art of player development.
Another aspect to consider is the team's needs.

That's nothing short of a minor miracle for this team.
That said, it's worth noting that after the game, Connor Bedard spoke to the media. And you could tell the Blackhawks' captain wasn't exactly happy with how things went during the game.

Hellebuyck significantly bolsters the Devils, who are now a very intriguing and formidable team on paper.
And it's not just hockey fans and National Hockey League executives who see this.

To give Drew Rasmussen a little more rest and to avoid having Freddy Peralta's first World Series start take place in Milwaukee.
However, this came with risks, including the possibility of being unable to use the team's two best starters later in the World Series.
Martinez therefore had to perform well last night to justify the fact that the team's two best postseason starters]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/drew-rasmussen-had-better-be-dominant-tonight/Sat, 24 Oct 2026 16:30:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/drew-rasmussen-had-better-be-dominant-tonight/ However, nothing seems to be working out for the Habs' GM, as the team remains unchanged and continues to struggle with injuries—especially the most recent one, to captain Nick Suzuki.

Obviously, the Habs without Suzuki (and without Ivan Demidov) is a cause for concern, and we were all eager to see how the guys would perform in this first game without their captain.

There have been several rumors about this over the past year, but the Habs seem to be waiting for the perfect deal.
However, it's not for lack of willingness.
According to insider Chris Johnston, the Habs are looking for help and are being quite aggressive in addressing this need.Chris J]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-ch-has-been-one-of-the-most-aggressive-teams-since-the-start-of-the-season/Sat, 24 Oct 2026 02:53:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-ch-has-been-one-of-the-most-aggressive-teams-since-the-start-of-the-season/ Jakub Dobes isn't living up to expectations, and there are several injured players. And as we all know, the Habs will have to make do without their captain, Nick Suzuki, for at least two weeks.
Suzuki's absence will also complicate things on defense.
However, even though the Habs are giving up a lot of goals (34 goals allowed in just nine games), the team is doing very well at five-on-five.

Oliver Kapanen will get his chance on the team's first line, but if that doesn't work out… what then?
David Ettedgui brought up the names of four players who might get a chance to prove themselves on the team's top line until the captain returns.

The kicker merry-go-round continues in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Rams, who are 2-4, signed veteran Brandon McManus on Tuesday. He becomes the team's third kicker in two weeks and is set to begin his 13th season in the NFL.
Last week, the Rams released Harrison Mevis.

But it's highly likely that the Canadiens will try to trade him once he's healthy again—even if that would leave only two young goalies to guard the net in Montreal.

But for a team dealing with injuries and still ironing out some kinks, that's a more than respectable record.

The Habs may not have gotten off to the start they hoped for, but I thought it was harsh to see The Athletic rank the Montreal club… 23rd in the latest edition of its power rankings.

Where am I going with this?
It's simple: Connor McDavid's start to the 26-27 season shows just how much of a cut above the rest he is. The guy they call “McJesus” in Edmonton has as many points as Josh Anderson did last season… in just eight games.

Because the Montreal Canadiens prospect is off to an absolutely red-hot start to the NCAA season.
After six games with the University of Michigan Wolverines, the young forward has already racked up 14 points, placing him second among the NCAA's top scorers.
And the player ahead of him is Jayden Perron, who has 15 points… and plays for his own club.

And at that point, three big names could be on the move. In fact, just yesterday (Sunday), our colleague Charles-Alexis Brisebois reported that things are about to shake up with the Houston Astros, as Christian Walker, Isaac Paredes,]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/trades-three-names-to-watch-this-winter/Mon, 19 Oct 2026 18:30:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/trades-three-names-to-watch-this-winter/ It's also no secret that the Blue Jackets wanted a top-tier player in exchange for the Russian. That's why the Maple Leafs, who had Matthew Knies to offer, came out on top in the trade war.
Since then, everyone has moved on.
But this morning, on his “32 Thoughts” podcast, Elliotte Friedman (Sportsnet) reported something interesting regarding the Montreal Canadiens.
What did he say?

The Canadiens' players were unable to do their jobs in those situations during the first four games of the season.
As of October 8, after four games, the Habs had a “success rate” of 7.7% on the power play and 70.6% while shorthanded.
But what about since then?

They wanted to make sure they took the lead in a series that was tied 2-2.
In the first three innings of the game, the Rays found a way to score runs to build momentum.
In the first inning, a walk with the bases loaded made it 1-0. Jonny DeLuca drove in Yandy Diaz.

He has also taken only three shots on goal.

Milstein, who also represents Ivan Demidov and Alexandre Texier on the CH, is certainly no stranger to making headlines.
This time, Nikita Zadorov finds himself at the center of the story.

The team's infield is crowded, it's expensive, and not everyone will get playing time every day because Yordan Alvarez is the regular designated hitter.
Carlos Correa's injury in 206 solved one problem. But in 2027, he'll theoretically be ready to play.

As seen during the game against the Red Wings—which was part of a campaign to win over fans—many supporters are ready to welcome him with open arms.
However, according to some, including Renaud Lavoie, it's actually his inner circle that's hesitant about moving]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/even-in-toronto-people-think-dylan-larkin-is-crazy-for-turning-down-the-habs/Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:09:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/even-in-toronto-people-think-dylan-larkin-is-crazy-for-turning-down-the-habs/ Olivier Cool tied Kevin Mital's touchdown record with two touchdown receptions in the second quarter, giving the Laval team a comfortable 24–0 lead over the McGill Redbirds.
The senior wide receiver scored two touchdowns on plays of 13 and 14 yards. With these two scores, he brings his career total to 23 touchdowns, tying Kevin Mital, who set that mark between 2021 and 2023.

The Dodgers wanted him back at the plate.
Last year, after one year on the contract, rumors began to circulate about making room on the roster ahead of the 2026 season. He stayed put.
And this year, it looks like it's the same old story.
Ken Rosenthal (The Athletic), in an article about the Dodgers, mentioned that the Dodgers might need]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/teoscar-hernandez-wont-be-able-to-escape-the-rumors/Sun, 18 Oct 2026 20:30:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/teoscar-hernandez-wont-be-able-to-escape-the-rumors/ There was a logjam at the blue line, and the Montreal Canadiens opted to keep Adam Engstrom, Arber Xhekaj, and David Reinbacher.
Struble was either getting very few minutes per game in Montreal or was simply left out of the lineup altogether.
With his new team, the Nashville Predators, he's getting significant ice time.
He has already played more than 19 minutes in two games, including yesterday's game against the St. Louis Blues.]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/jayden-struble-seems-to-have-found-his-niche-in-nashville/Sun, 18 Oct 2026 20:10:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/jayden-struble-seems-to-have-found-his-niche-in-nashville/ The young player pulled off a rare feat in the NFL by scoring a touchdown on offense and making an interception on defense in the same game. It was a feat that hadn't been accomplished since 2002, even though his team ultimately suffered a heartbreaking 34–31 loss.

On October 12, the Armada won their game against the Victoriaville Tigres, but in the end, they won't get the two points for the victory.
Why? Because a player who was technically ineligible to play for the Armada was in uniform.

But Jorge Castillo (ESPN) recently learned that the Mariners were ultimately told by the former Mets manager that he wasn't interested.
He withdrew his name from consideration to take the job as third base coach (and infield coach) for the Phillies.

Here's the first roundup of the season.
Michael Hage – Center – 20 years old
Well, let's start with the CH prospect you're clearly]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/a-look-at-the-chs-up-and-comers-michael-hage-records-his-100th-career-point-in-the-ncaa/Sun, 18 Oct 2026 17:13:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/a-look-at-the-chs-up-and-comers-michael-hage-records-his-100th-career-point-in-the-ncaa/ The Mariners are expected to make him a qualifying offer. And then what? What will happen when he turns it down?
According to current reports, don't expect the Mariners to be willing to give the outfielder what he's asking for—and what other teams will offer him.
That's one of the reasons why we should expect the former Ray to leave Seattle this winter.
Sources tell Ryan Divish of the Seat]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/randy-arozarena-the-mariners-wont-be-able-to-keep-him/Sun, 18 Oct 2026 16:30:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/randy-arozarena-the-mariners-wont-be-able-to-keep-him/ The Slovak winger makes a lot of mistakes, misses passes, and tries fancy plays that go nowhere, all while not producing much.

On both occasions, the Sabres came back from behind, even though they didn't necessarily deserve to force either game into overtime.

Here are the highlights that drew the most attention.
1. Connor McDavid is in a league of his own
The Edmonton Oilers are simply on another level offensively, especially this season, as they're scoring goals at a pace never seen before.
We're used to seeing several Oilers players among the league's top scorers, and this season is no different.

Rumor has it that De La Cruz intends to ask for a hefty sum on his next big contract. He has already turned down an offer of over $225 million (over 10 years) from the Reds, and it seems that the Scott Boras client is looking to sign for a hefty sum.

But beyond the visitors they'll be facing on the ice, the Habs will also be welcoming two scouts to their press box. That's not many.

As a client of Scott Boras, he has declined to comment on the matter.
There are a few signs, however, that suggest the Dodgers are by no means the only team to take seriously in the race.
In fact, here are three reasons why the pitcher might very well sign with a team other than the Dodgers this winter.

Here's what stood out from the night, though.
1. Frédéric Brunet's heartwarming story continues
Every year, we expect to see the Boston Bruins end up at the bottom of the standings, but every time, they manage to surprise us and prove us wrong.
Once again this season, they weren't necessarily expected to be among the top teams in the East, but for now—even if the sam]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/top-2-quebec-native-frdric-brunet-scores-his-first-nhl-goal/Sat, 17 Oct 2026 14:06:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/top-2-quebec-native-frdric-brunet-scores-his-first-nhl-goal/ The situation has been dragging on since the end of last season, and there have been a lot of developments since then.
First, his (very) short list of destinations where he'd be willing to be traded has grown longer. We know he doesn't want to play in Canada to begin with.
The asking price has also changed since this summer. In August, the Wings wanted a first-line center in exchange for Larkin, but the teams on his list simply weren't wil]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/heres-what-the-red-wings-would-ask-for-in-exchange-for-dylan-larkin/Sat, 17 Oct 2026 04:03:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/heres-what-the-red-wings-would-ask-for-in-exchange-for-dylan-larkin/ He hasn't played since and was listed as day-to-day.
Still, the worst was feared, as Matheson was seen staggering at the airport on Tuesday morning. The footage was far from reassuring.
However, Renaud Lavoie provided some encouraging news about him.
On the show “JiC,” he reassured Habs fans by saying that his status hasn't changed and that he's still cons]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/mike-mathesons-case-is-encouraging/Sat, 17 Oct 2026 03:02:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/mike-mathesons-case-is-encouraging/ Ever since the Red Wings visited the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre on October 10, the rumors have picked up steam again, fueled by chants of “Larkin” from the crowd.
Personally, I'm of the opinion that if you have to try to convince a guy to come play here—a guy who doesn't want to play in Canada to begin with—it's not worth paying top dollar to acquire him.
That said, if the Habs were to add Larkin as their second-line]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/i-like-michael-hage-but-dylan-larkin-is-a-safe-bet/Sat, 17 Oct 2026 02:02:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/i-like-michael-hage-but-dylan-larkin-is-a-safe-bet/ I've said before that it's time for the team to put him out of his misery. I still believe that.
At some point, I don't think it's a coincidence that his 2026 season was disastrous by his standards. He must feel trapped in Boston.
And that's probably what causes him to act strangely at times. I'm not saying this to defend him, by the way, but…
When it comes time to think about]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/jarren-duran-remains-with-the-padres/Sat, 17 Oct 2026 01:00:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/jarren-duran-remains-with-the-padres/ There was a lot of talk about the possibility of the Habs picking him up from Anaheim because things weren't going well for him with the Ducks… and, above all, because he had an appealing profile for a team like the Canadiens.
But now…
But now, McTavish is no longer available. And that's a shame in a way… because the young center has been on fire since his debut with the Blues.

In June, Aiyuk had publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch. His statements quickly caught the attention of NFL fans, particularly because of the player's especially provocativ]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/brandon-aiyuks-long-awaited-rematch-against-the-49ers-wont-happen/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 14:00:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/brandon-aiyuks-long-awaited-rematch-against-the-49ers-wont-happen/ He mentioned that he wanted to prove to his haters that he's still a good goalie and that he's hungry for more.

Alain Crête, who has filled in for Pierre Houde on a few occasions over the past few years, was back on play-by-play duty.
As the game went on, the sound improved, but early on, the ambient noise was much louder than his voice. It's not normal for a mere regular-season game on a Wednesday night in the U]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/heres-what-people-are-saying-about-the-habs-first-game-on-prime/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 03:27:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/heres-what-people-are-saying-about-the-habs-first-game-on-prime/ We thought we were done with it at the start of the season, but think again: Samuel Montembeault's injury has changed everything. It's changed everything because Jacob Fowler is the number one goaltender for now, and Jakub Dobes won't be sent down to Laval.
Monty had a good training camp, and Kent Hughes doesn't give up assets for nothing. So he's not likely to put him on waivers.
My take, then: this three-way]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/dont-think-this-threesome-will-end-easily/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 02:25:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/dont-think-this-threesome-will-end-easily/ He played a few games with the Canadiens last season, but that doesn't affect his eligibility for the Calder Trophy in '26–'27.
And if he keeps playing like this…
Renaud Lavoie, speaking on BPM Sports earlier this morning, mentioned that the Canadiens' goaltender is making a name for himself right now in the race for the NHL Rookie of the Year title.
We all agree that the season is still young. But I'll repeat what I said earli]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/jacob-fowler-is-already-throwing-his-hat-into-the-ring-for-the-calder-trophy/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 00:59:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/jacob-fowler-is-already-throwing-his-hat-into-the-ring-for-the-calder-trophy/ They have some (very) talented players on their roster, such as Cole Caufield, Nick Suzuki, Juraj Slafkovsky, Ivan Demidov, and Lane Hutson.
But they also have some promising prospects in the organization, such as Michael Hage, Alexander Zharovsky, David Reinbacher, Bryce Pickford… and the list goes on.
This means the Montreal club is (and will be) well-positioned to make a major trade. And on that front… we know that Dylan Larkin's]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/dylan-larkin-the-canadiens-have-the-best-offer-for-the-wings-among-all-nhl-teams/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 00:05:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/dylan-larkin-the-canadiens-have-the-best-offer-for-the-wings-among-all-nhl-teams/ First up is some news about our own Quebec native, Charles Davalan, who is still going strong in the 2026 seas]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/baseball-this-week-in-quebec-charles-davalan-in-arizona-for-the-fall-season/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 00:05:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/baseball-this-week-in-quebec-charles-davalan-in-arizona-for-the-fall-season/https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/rio-theatre-owner-delivers-new-gallery-to-vancouver-arts-scene/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 00:01:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/rio-theatre-owner-delivers-new-gallery-to-vancouver-arts-scene/ And that's probably the National Hockey League's worst-kept secret.
Kent Hughes is still involved in several deals because he has his eye on some players. But who might interest a team like the Canadiens, who are looking to add a talented player to their top-six offense?
Appearing on the Morning Cuppa Hockey Podcast, Marco D'Amico brought up the names of three players in the discussion.

The big #77 seems… inconsistent. He's not playing the right way, his effort level isn't great, and that's making it hard for Martin St-Louis to give him a key role on the Montreal lineup.
The result?

That said, he had only two assists in 10 playoff games.

They're also counting on Jakub Dobes, who needs to find his footing again.
We can all agree that, heading into tonight's game, the pressure is on Dobes.Things will get more complicated when Samuel Montembeault returns. After all, the Canadiens won't want (unless something changes) to send Fowler back down…

He would have started making that transition.
But he hasn't.

Earlier in the day, the Panthers visited the Sabres. It was therefore a good opportunity to]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/top-3-rasmus-dahlin-gets-injured-just-before-facing-montreal/Tue, 13 Oct 2026 13:32:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/top-3-rasmus-dahlin-gets-injured-just-before-facing-montreal/ The talk was of two forwards and a defenseman—all currently playing in the NHL—plus a first-round pick and a conditional pick that could become a first-round pick.
In reality, it's widely agreed that this is a pretty massive offer.

However, tonight, our colleague Maxime Truman reported some good news: according to what he's heard, Demidov's foot is healing quickly.
Although that could still change, we should expect the Russian to be out closer to two weeks (rather than four weeks]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/ivan-demidov-theres-a-good-chance-well-see-him-play-next-week/Tue, 13 Oct 2026 03:00:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/ivan-demidov-theres-a-good-chance-well-see-him-play-next-week/ But it quickly became clear that the starting pitchers weren't going to capture the spotlight for the right reasons.
Teoscar Hernandez opened the scoring in the first inning with a sacrifice fly. Also in the first, William Contreras hit a single to tie the game at 1-1.
In the third inning, the Dodgers took a 2-1 lead on a wild throw by pitcher Henderson to first bas]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-brewers-lead-2-0-in-their-series-against-the-dodgers/Tue, 13 Oct 2026 02:26:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-brewers-lead-2-0-in-their-series-against-the-dodgers/ And that's despite the fact that the fans showed him some love on Saturday night… and that the Habs are (truly) willing to pay to bring him in.
So the question is whether, at some point, Larkin (or his camp) will change his mind and accept a trade to Montreal. And Elliotte Friedman, on his podcast “32]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/dylan-larkin-in-montreal-elliotte-friedman-isnt-closing-the-door/Tue, 13 Oct 2026 02:17:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/dylan-larkin-in-montreal-elliotte-friedman-isnt-closing-the-door/ We know how it turned out: Peter DeBoer's arrival didn't have the desired effect, and the team ultimately missed the playoffs.
And Mathieu Darche, the Islanders' GM, was ultimately criticized by many for that decision because of the results that followed. Many saw it as a lack of respect f]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/patrick-roy-mathieu-darche-explains-why-he-fired-him-last-april/Tue, 13 Oct 2026 01:35:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/patrick-roy-mathieu-darche-explains-why-he-fired-him-last-april/ He skates well, he's imposing, he's intimidating, and he's a huge asset to the team.
He's currently in the final year of his seven-year contract worth $5.5 million per season, and many are eager to see what his next contract will look like and whether he'll want to stay in Montreal.
It's hard to say what his next contract will look like, but we now know that Josh really wants to stay in Montreal.
While visiting BPM Sports' Tailgate for an interview,]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/josh-anderson-has-only-one-thing-on-his-mind-finishing-his-career-in-montreal/Tue, 13 Oct 2026 00:39:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/josh-anderson-has-only-one-thing-on-his-mind-finishing-his-career-in-montreal/ More importantly, he finished the year quite a bit short of his goal of a 50-50 season.
All of this comes as Chisholm Jr. is just a few weeks away from full free agency. And while we don't necessarily expect to see him return to the Bronx, we're starting to consider other options.
Mark Feinsand, writing for MLB]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/jazz-chisholm-jr-the-blue-jays-mentioned-as-a-possible-destination/Tue, 13 Oct 2026 00:30:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/jazz-chisholm-jr-the-blue-jays-mentioned-as-a-possible-destination/ We remember that when Jonathan Huberdeau was traded from the Florida Panthers to the Calgary Flames, he had to part with his luxury cars. They weren't really meant to be driven in Calgary.
When players earn several million dollars a season, it's normal to see them buying luxury cars or sports cars (like Lamborghinis).
Others opt instead for big trucks, and that's exactly what Cole Caufield did just recently.
The small forward for the Habs treated himself]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/cole-caufields-new-g-wagon-is-incredible/Mon, 12 Oct 2026 23:46:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/cole-caufields-new-g-wagon-is-incredible/ Kent Hughes didn't make a trade… but the team recalled Owen Beck from the Laval Rocket.

Because it's… weird?
Basically, Jakub Dobes was asked how he felt about Samuel Montembeault's return—Montembeault is likely to rejoin the team soon, considering his injury isn't (very) serious.
And Doby, who needs to prove himself to earn more ice time, mentioned that it's more fun with three goalies on the roster. Is it just me, or… is that a weird comment?It's funny to have all three g]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/three-way-jakub-dobes-thinks-its-more-fun-with-three-goalies-really/Mon, 12 Oct 2026 22:05:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/three-way-jakub-dobes-thinks-its-more-fun-with-three-goalies-really/ He decided not to report to his team's training camp and has been suspended (without pay) ever since.
And now, the Jets find themselves in a strange situation… because the team can't seem to find a partner to dance with when it comes to a trade.
According to Elliotte Friedman, this means the goaltender may have no choice but to return to action with the Jets… even if that won't satisfy anyone. The fa]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/connor-hellebuyck-no-choice-but-to-come-back-to-winnipeg-and-piss-everyone-off/Mon, 12 Oct 2026 20:48:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/connor-hellebuyck-no-choice-but-to-come-back-to-winnipeg-and-piss-everyone-off/ This should place him second behind Yordan Alvarez in the race for the American League MVP award—even though I believe he deserves to win it.

The young player is clearly dealing with an injury. And we seem to have an idea of what caused it.
In last Thursday's game against the Preds, the youngest of the Xhekaj brothers was on the ice with just over a minute left in the game. The puck went out of the zone, and Florian tried to check a Predators player who was near the Cana]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/video-the-moment-florian-xhekaj-may-have-been-injured/Mon, 12 Oct 2026 19:33:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/video-the-moment-florian-xhekaj-may-have-been-injured/ Of course, everyone knows the Japanese player is injured. He should have missed games well before mid-September, when he was placed on the injured list.
But since he's a proud man, he wants to stay on the field, and he returned in time for the playoffs. That's to his credit.

According to ESPN reporter Adam Schefter, this injury could force the young running back to miss several weeks of action.
This latest setback complicates matters for Philadelphia, which is already dealing with several key absences among its running backs. The team may therefore have to adjust its offensi]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/more-bad-news-for-the-eagles/Mon, 12 Oct 2026 18:00:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/more-bad-news-for-the-eagles/ CF Montréal was leading 1–0 with 92 minutes on the clock in Toronto… and somehow managed to lose 2–1. Goals in the 93rd and 95th minutes!
One of the team's highest-paid players even thought it was a good idea to “like” a post highlighting TFC's comeback. And this wasn't even the first time he'd done this: he'd also “liked” a post claiming that some of CF Montréal's recently]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/larkin-disappoints-dach-gets-little-ice-time-and-mittelstadt-is-knocking-on-the-door/Mon, 12 Oct 2026 17:59:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/larkin-disappoints-dach-gets-little-ice-time-and-mittelstadt-is-knocking-on-the-door/ It wasn't a game day: the team was taking its annual group photo, which is why practice was scheduled at the Bell Centre instead of Brossard.
Anyway, what stood out about this practice?
First off, it's worth noting that Mike Matheson and Oliver Kapanen were absent.
Both players were given a day of treatment, as the Habs announced on X. For Kapanen, this is a special case: we're still waiting for him to return to action… but we know]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/florian-xhekaj-leaves-practice-after-just-a-few-minutes/Mon, 12 Oct 2026 16:43:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/florian-xhekaj-leaves-practice-after-just-a-few-minutes/ And it paid off, as the left-hander was brilliant in the first game of the National League Division Series against the Atlanta Braves, pitching six innings, allowing one run on two hits while striking out seven batters.
This followed a string of excellent performances he'd put together since mid-August, during which he pitched into the sixth inning in eight of his last nine starts and allowed just o]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-brewers-showed-how-to-beat-tarik-skubal/Mon, 12 Oct 2026 16:30:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/the-brewers-showed-how-to-beat-tarik-skubal/ The Detroit Lions running back took advantage of his team's victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday to score two touchdowns in a convincing 45–21 win. This performance allowed him to surpass American football legend Barry Sanders and set a new personal record before his 25th birthday.

Jacob Fowler played Thursday's game because… the Canadiens likely wanted to give someone other than Jakub Dobes a chance in net, and the team's true No. 2 had been injured the day before.

He wasn't bad, but getting three outs per inning—against a powerhouse team—wasn't going to be easy.
So the Dodgers took advantage.

Here's a recap.
1. The Maple Leafs Are Impressive
Toronto is off to a strong start this season, and that really showed last night as the Leafs defeated the Colorado Avalanche 6–3.
It was a huge regular-season win for the Leafs against one of the NHL's top teams.
The bi]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/top-5-gavin-mckenna-and-the-leafs-shine-against-the-avalanche/Sun, 11 Oct 2026 14:07:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/top-5-gavin-mckenna-and-the-leafs-shine-against-the-avalanche/ The veteran had seen his role expand dramatically after A.J.

The Guardians had a strong pitcher on the mound, and it showed. Gavin Williams struck out no fewer than 12 batters in 5.2 innings of work.
That's really good, let's be clear. He really stepped up, even though he was a bit generous with his pitch count, throwing 94 pitches in less than six innings.

That said, we were also keeping an eye on one of the team's prospects tonight, as Michael Hage was in action in the NCAA. And the kid, true to form, dominated the game.

In the long run, this approach won't work. And it's no coincidence that the Montreal team has a 1-1-1 record after three games this season.

He's been playing alongside Juraj Slafkovsky and Ivan Demidov ever since Oliver Kapanen got injured before Game 1 of the season.
And he'll be playing with Slaf and Kirby Dach (replacing Demidov) tonight.

There's no light at the end of the tunnel for the team's former captain.
And since he doesn't want to add the Habs to his list, he's stuck there…
But now, more and more, the Red Wings are feeling the consequences of all this. The team, which hasn't made the playoffs since 1783 (I'm sure Michigan fans feel that way, anyway), is at the center of new rumors.

Chicago had the second overall pick that year and ultimately opted for defenseman Artyom Levshunov. Demidov had slipped to fifth overall, right into the Canadiens' hands.
Two years later, McCagg still believes the Hawks made the wrong choice.

However, they ultimately had to admit defeat in overtime.

The game had started well for the Montreal Carabins, who had to work hard to overcome a Sherbrooke team still searching for its first win of the season. The visitors even took a 14-10 lead in the second half, putting considerable pressure on the defending champions.

But what's interesting is that Fowler opened up to the media about all of this… and you can tell the kid still hasn't come to terms with being sent back to Laval.

The main question heading into tonight's game was whether Oliver Kapanen would return to the lineup. The injured Finnish forward has been back at practice over the past few days.
But clearly, he's not ready yet (or Martin St-Louis]]>https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/oliver-kapanen-and-florian-xhekaj-are-once-again-out-of-the-lineup-tonight/Sat, 03 Oct 2026 18:06:00 +0200https://www.newslocker.com/en-ca/news/canada-celebrity-news/oliver-kapanen-and-florian-xhekaj-are-once-again-out-of-the-lineup-tonight/ Martin St-Louis's squad will once again face a team celebrating its season opener, after defeating the Maple Leafs in Toronto on Tuesday.

Michigan won 7-2, and Hage stood out with two goals and an assist, in addition to recording six shots on goal.

However, it's never easy for a newcomer to adjust to a new environment, a new system of play, and new teammates.
Some will get off to a great start in their new colors, others will adapt more quickly, but generally, it takes some time to adjust.

And rightly so, by the way. The guy gives it his all for the team on the ice, and we love players who have that kind of drive here in town.
