Montreal Canadiens News

While most of the attention at camp centred on the play of Joshua Roy and Oliver Kapanen, it was Emil Heineman who quietly had the best underlying numbers in preseason action. He’s also hit the ground running after earning his roster spot, with two goals in three games. His parents are understandably excited about his recent play.

Prospect Aatos Koivu registered his fifth point of the season for TPS Turku, the very same team his father played with before arriving in Canada. As it stands, he’s been limited to a depth role on the team, but that’s par for the course when discussing an 18-year-old who was picked in the third round playing in a professional hockey league.

Even though prospect David Reinbacher sustained a long-term injury in preseason action he still managed to make himself available for the team’s annual blood drive at the Bell Centre. Brendan Gallagher and Cole Caufield were also present to spend time with Habs fans who donated their blood.


The Canadiens once again find themselves as one of the youngest teams in the NHL, and those come with growing pains. As the club navigates a season where they’d like to be in the playoff mix, having some key youngsters establish themselves in bigger roles could help the Canadiens kill two birds with one stone down the line.

The Philadelphia Flyers have not been strangers to making stunning trades over the last several years. In a vacuum, there’s nothing wrong with being ambitious. It just hasn’t worked out for the Flyers lately. On July 22, 2021, the Flyers traded Shayne Gostisbehere, a 2022 second-round pick, and a 2022 seventh-round pick to the Arizona Coyotes for absolutely nothing. [Philadelphia Flyers]

David Pastrnak was shaken not stirred, but remains undeterred following his run-in with A.J. Greer. The Bruins all-star right-winger was caught in Greer’s crosshairs Thursday night, receiving a hit from behind during the first period of the team’s 4-3 loss to the Florida Panthers at TD Garden.
