| 4 players the Canadiens need to lock up on new deals |
| Possessing one of the deepest prospect pools in the NHL, the Montreal Canadiens have a bright future ahead of them. With that said, there are a handful of core members who will soon be due for contract extensions. The Canadiens recently signed Cole Caufield and Sam Montembeault to multi-year extensions, and they have a few other deals to negotiate over the next year. Entering the final season of his rookie contract, Canadiens forward Juraj Slafkovsky is coming off a breakout campaign that saw him blossom into a top-line staple. |

| Should Canadiens' Nick Suzuki play for Team Canada? |
| It looks like Canadiens captain Nick Suzuki will take a pass on playing for Team Canada at this year's IIHF World Championship, slated for May 10-26 in Czechia. Suzuki, who hasn't missed a game during his five seasons in the NHL — a streak of 373 consecutive games — received some criticism for not committing to play for Team Canada. |

| Stu Cowan: Cayden Primeau is excited about future with Canadiens |
| This was a challenging season for the Canadiens' Cayden Primeau. Primeau was the third member of an uncomfortable three-goalie rotation because GM Kent Hughes was afraid of losing the 24-year-old on waivers if he tried to send him down to the AHL's Laval Rocket. Hughes was finally able to deal Jake Allen to the New Jersey Devils at the NHL trade deadline on March 8, leaving Samuel Montembeault and Primeau as the two goalies heading into next season. |

| Bob Cole, the voice of hockey in Canada for a half-century, dies at 90 |
| Bob Cole, the voice of hockey in Canada for a half century who served as the soundtrack for some of the national sport's biggest moments, has died. Friend and fellow broadcaster John Shannon said Cole died Wednesday night in his hometown of St. John's, the capital of the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, the network for which Cole worked, announced his death Thursday, adding daughter Megan said her father had been healthy “up until the very end.” “He's such a legend, such a great man,” said Colorado center Nathan MacKinnon, a Nova Scotia native. |

| Canadiens willing to trade a young defenceman for scoring punch: report |
| Looking at the makeup of their roster, it's clear that the Montreal Canadiens have more young defencemen in their system than they know what to do with. According to a recent report from David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period, Canadiens GM Kent Hughes is willing to make a deal to acquire a forward in exchange for a d-man before the upcoming NHL draft. “It's no secret the Montreal Canadiens want to add a scorer this summer, and they plan to dangle some of their young defencemen as bait,” Pagnotta wrote in an article published Thursday. |

| Ducks' Trevor Zegras responds to constant Canadiens trade rumors |
| Trevor Zegras is fresh off the worst season of his professional career in 2023-24. The former No. 9 overall pick in the 2019 NHL Draft was excellent in his rookie and sophomore seasons, amassing 126 points in 156 games and looking like the future of the Anaheim Ducks. One team that continues to be linked to the American is the Montreal Canadiens, and Zegras admitted he isn't thrilled about the constant rumors. “You see it,” Zegras told The Athletic's Eric Stephens recently. |

| Canadiens Need Gallagher to Play Diminished but Critical Role - The Hockey Writers Montreal Canadiens Latest News, Analysis & More |
| Montreal Canadiens forward Brendan Gallagher impressively turned back the clock to end 2023-24 with a strong finish to the season. On the second line with centre Alex Newhook and Joel Armia, Gallagher scored five goals and five assists in his last eight games. As a result, it's clear that production is unsustainable, as much as the Canadiens would like to believe he's rediscovered his scoring touch at 32, when, over the last four seasons, he has just 45 goals and 92 points in 205 games (0.45 points per game). Remember, he started 2023-24 on the right foot too, with four goals three assists in his first 11 games (a 52-point pace, to which Canadiens fans should be more accustomed from him). |

| NHL Rumors: Ducks, Maple Leafs, Blues, Canadiens - The Hockey Writers Toronto Maple Leafs Latest News, Analysis & More |
| In today's NHL rumors rundown, the Anaheim Ducks have an offseason plan and their GM isn't afraid to share that plan. Meanwhile, William Nylander is practicing again for the Toronto Maple Leafs. The St. Louis Blues intend to extend Pavel Buchnevich, and will the Montreal Canadiens take a big swing at forward? According to the official X.com account for the Anaheim Ducks, “Ducks GM Pat Verbeek in a season-ending media session says the team is pursuing both a top-six right shot forward and a top-four right shot defenseman this offseason.” |

| Red Wings miss playoffs despite 5-4 shootout win over Canadiens |
| The Detroit Red Wings were knocked out of playoff contention once again on Tuesday night, and it hardly could have come in more gut-wrenching fashion. Patrick Kane scored the shootout winner in a 5-4 Detroit win over the Montreal Canadiens in their regular-season finale, completing a comeback after a dramatic game-tying goal from David Perron with 3.3 seconds left in regulation. The Red Wings entered the night tied with Washington for the East’s second wild-card spot with 89 points, but the Capitals held the tiebreaker over Detroit with more regulations wins. |

Joonas Korpisalo made 21 saves for Ottawa. |
