Canadiens' Alexander Zharovsky: Reaches 10-goal, 25-point marks
Zharovsky scored a goal in Salavat Yulaev Ufa's 4-2 loss to Amur Khabarovsk in the KHL on Tuesday.
With the goal, Zharovsky is at 10 goals and 25 points in 30 appearances. The 18-year-old winger has made himself a big part of Ufa's offense, earning five of his goals on the power play. It'll still be a while before he reaches the NHL, as he is under contract through the end of 2026-27 with Salavat Yulaev.

Canadiens' Sammy Blais: Tallies in Tuesday's win
Blais scored a goal and added three hits in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
Blais has two points, nine hits and a plus-2 rating over two games since the Canadiens summoned him from AHL Laval. The 29-year-old Quebec native has slotted right into a fourth-line role, but he could move up if he stays productive. He's at two goals, five points, nine shots, 37 hits and six PIM over 10 appearances between Montreal and Toronto this year.

Canadiens' Zachary Bolduc: Nets go-ahead goal
Bolduc scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
Bolduc has been getting a look on the top line recently, earning four goals over eight games while playing alongside Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield. The 22-year-old Bolduc is producing at a similar rate to last year's 36-point effort in 72 regular-season appearances. He's at 10 goals, seven helpers, 56 shots on net, 66 hits and a minus-5 rating over 37 appearances in 2025-26. Tuesday's goal was also his second game-winner of the campaign.

Canadiens' Cole Caufield: Pots power-play tally
Caufield scored a power-play goal on five shots in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
Caufield had been limited to three helpers over a six-game goal drought that he snapped in the third period of Tuesday's win. The 24-year-old has gone 12 contests without a multi-point effort but still has eight points, including five on the power play, in that span. For the season, the winger is up to 18 goals, 18 helpers, 14 power-play points, 103 shots on net, 31 hits and a plus-7 rating through 37 appearances, putting him on track to surpass the 70 points he had in 82 regular-season outings a year ago.

Canadiens' Nick Suzuki: Two more points Tuesday
Suzuki scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
The 26-year-old center continues to sizzle. Suzuki hasn't gone consecutive games without producing a point all season, and through 13 games in December he's racked up four goals and 14 points, including three goals and five assists with the man advantage.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Two points in win over Boston
Slafkovsky scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
Both points came in the third period to help the Canadiens pull away. Slafkovsky has produced multiple points in two straight games and four of the last eight. He has collected two goals and nine points over that stretch, including a goal and three assists on the power play.

Canadiens' Ivan Demidov: Two-point effort in Boston
Demidov scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
The rookie winger delivered his second straight two-point performance. He tied the game at 2-2 early in the second period by stealing the puck at center ice and beating Jeremy Swayman on a breakaway. Demidov also assisted on a Cole Caufield tally in the third. Demidov has been remarkably consistent for a 20-year-old in his first NHL season while delivering nine goals and 30 points in 37 contests. He's gone more than two games without getting onto the scoresheet on only one occasion all season.

Canadiens' Lane Hutson: Three-point effort in win
Hutson picked up three assists, two shots on net and a plus-4 rating in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
Hutson and Noah Dobson switched roles for one night, with the former Islander notching two power-play helpers while Hutson did all his scoring at even strength. While his goal drought stands at nine games, Hutson has racked up 13 assists and five multi-point performances in the last eight contests.

Canadiens' Noah Dobson: Three helpers in Boston
Dobson notched three assists, two on the power play, in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
After helping to set up the game's opening tally by Sammy Blais midway through the third period, Dobson had a hand in third-period goals by Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki to help the Canadiens pull away. Dobson has caught fire, collecting two goals and five points in the last four games. Through 37 contests to begin his first campaign with Montreal, he's produced six goals and 23 points with 87 blocked shots, 66 shots on net, 20 PIM and a plus-2 rating.

Canadiens' Jacob Fowler: Cruises to third win
Fowler made 26 saves in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
Boston took a 2-1 lead into the first intermission, but Fowler shut the door the rest of the way while the Montreal offense got rolling. The rookie netminder might be the solution to the Habs' issues in net. Through his first five NHL starts, he's gone 3-1-1 with a 2.39 GAA and .918 save percentage.

Canadiens' Bryce Pickford: Inks entry-level deal
Pickford signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Canadiens on Wednesday.
Pickford was selected by Montreal with the No. 81 overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft. The blueliner helped Medicine Hat win the WHL Championship by supplying 20 goals and 47 points in 48 games during the 2024-25 regular season, followed by 13 goals and 24 points in 18 playoff appearances. However, the 19-year-old has been even more impressive this campaign. Pickford has collected 25 goals and 44 points in 31 outings with Medicine Hat. He's the league leader in goals, which is wild for a blueliner.

Canadiens' Alexandre Texier: Exits Tuesday's game
Texier (upper body) won't finish Tuesday's game versus the Bruins.
Texier was ruled out after the second intermission. If it's just a minor injury, he may not have to miss time. The holiday break means the Canadiens won't be in action again until Sunday versus the Lightning.

Canadiens' Phillip Danault: Ready to rock
Danault (illness) will play against Boston on Tuesday, according to Patrick Friolet of RDS.
Danault skated with the team for the first time at Tuesday's morning skate since being acquired from the Kings on Friday. Based on the session, he will occupy a third-line role against the Bruins. Danault has five assists, 42 shots on goal, 11 blocked shots and 22 hits in 30 games this season.

Canadiens' Jacob Fowler: Set to start Tuesday
Fowler is slated to start Tuesday's road game against Boston, Patrick Friolet of RDS reports.
Fowler is coming off his first career shutout Saturday against the Penguins, and he'll draw the start in the Canadiens' final game ahead of the holiday break. Across four starts for Montreal this year, Fowler has gone 2-1-1 while allowing 10 goals on 118 shots for a .915 save percentage.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Garners assist in shootout loss
Matheson logged an assist, three shots on goal and four blocked shots in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Penguins.
Matheson recently missed two games due to an upper-body injury, and this was his second contest back in the lineup. He's immediately stepped back into a massive role on the top pairing, so it's safe to assume he's close to 100 percent. The defenseman has been a pleasant surprise this season with 17 points, 43 shots on net, 73 blocks, 23 hits, 18 PIM and a plus-10 rating over 34 outings, though he has just three helpers over his last 13 appearances.

Canadiens' Sammy Blais: Logs helper Sunday
Blais posted an assist, six hits and two PIM in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Penguins.
Blais was called up earlier in the day and slotted onto the fourth line in place of Jake Evans (lower body), who landed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. This was Blais' first game with the Canadiens after signing with the team in July, as he logged three points in eight games with the Maple Leafs following a waiver claim. Montreal claimed him back in late November. Blais' stay in the NHL could be short, as Phillip Danault (illness) will be with the Canadiens for Tuesday's game versus the Bruins.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Dishes pair of helpers
Slafkovsky notched two assists and went plus-2 in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Penguins.
Slafkovsky set up goals by linemates Ivan Demidov and Oliver Kapanen. The young trio is making a mark as the future faces of the franchise while playing together on a second line that can be sheltered since Nick Suzuki's line takes the harder matchups. Slafkovsky has a goal and six helpers over his last seven games, and he's up to 23 points (10 goals, 13 assists), 71 shots on net, 58 hits, 32 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 36 appearances this season.

Canadiens' Noah Dobson: Lights lamp Sunday
Dobson scored a goal on three shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Penguins.
Dobson has two goals over his last three games, though he's gotten on the scoresheet in just three of 12 contests in December. While it's been a bit of a rough month, the 25-year-old remains firmly in a top-four role for the Canadiens, which gives him the opportunity to turn his production around. He's at six goals, 20 points, 66 shots on net, 85 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 36 outings overall.
