Bolduc recorded a goal and an assist in Friday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Bolduc has been on a tear of late and has recorded back-to-back multi-point performances while also tallying six total points (two goals, four assists) over his last four games. That comes after a nine-game stretch in which he didn't record a single point, though. That lack of consistency makes Bolduc hard to trust in most formats, even if he owns a steady top-six role in Montreal's lineup.

Canadiens' Zachary Bolduc: Breaks out with three points
Rotowire
Bolduc scored a power-play goal on two shots and added two assists in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Mammoth.
One of the helpers also came with a man advantage. Bolduc has picked up four points over four games since he was shuffled onto the top line with Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield. Bolduc started the year hot, but this was arguably his best game of the season, and he's now at five goals, five assists, 32 shots on net, 40 hits and a minus-3 rating through 22 appearances. As long as he keeps playing well, Bolduc should be able to keep Juraj Slafkovsky down on the second line.

Canadiens' Zachary Bolduc: Logs helper Thursday
Rotowire
Bolduc notched an assist and five hits in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Capitals.
The Canadiens' offense has been in a lull lately, and that's prompted a shake-up in the lines. Bolduc landed alongside Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield, and his helper was on Suzuki's second-period tally. This ended a nine-game point drought for Bolduc, who is now at seven points, 28 shots on net, 39 hits and a minus-4 rating over 20 appearances. He had 36 points in 72 regular-season outings for the Blues a year ago, so Bolduc is certainly capable of stronger offense and should chip in steady hit totals as well.

Canadiens' Zachary Bolduc: Power-play tally in win
Rotowire
Bolduc scored a power-play goal on two shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flames.
Bolduc's goal opened the scoring late in the first period. He started the season with four points over three games, but he slumped with no points in four outings going into Wednesday's contest. The 22-year-old's offensive struggles dropped him to the fourth line at even strength, but he remains a valuable piece of the power play. Bolduc has four goals, one helper, 19 shots on net, 12 hits, four PIM and a minus-1 rating across eight appearances.

Canadiens' Zachary Bolduc: Scores again Thursday
Rotowire
Bolduc scored a goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Red Wings.
That's two goals in two games for Bolduc to start the season. A hot start should help him solidify his place on the second line, and he's also seeing ample power-play time on the first unit so far. He had 19 goals and 36 points in 72 regular-season games with the Blues last year, but Bolduc is poised for a true breakout campaign if he can keep his momentum up throughout 2025-26.

Canadiens' Zachary Bolduc: Finds back of net in Montreal debut
Rotowire
Bolduc scored his first goal of the season in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.
After coming over from the Blues in a trade this offseason, Bolduc wasted little time making his mark with the Canadiens, giving his new team a 2-1 lead early in the second period as he banged home the rebound on a Brendan Gallagher shot. Bolduc skated on the top power-play unit in the Habs' opener alongside the likes of Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield and Lane Hutson, and if he can hang onto that assignment, the 22-year-old will be in prime position to top the 19 goals and 36 points he amassed over 72 regular-season games with St. Louis in 2024-25.

Bolduc (lower body) is set to make his Canadiens debut Wednesday against Toronto.
Bolduc missed Saturday's exhibition game against Ottawa but appears to be available for Opening Night.

Canadiens' Zachary Bolduc: Not practicing Friday
Rotowire
Bolduc is not at practice Friday and is considered day-to-day with a lower-body injury.
The 21-year-old Bolduc was acquired by Montreal from St. Louis on July 1 in exchange for Logan Mailloux. Bolduc had a solid rookie campaign in 2024-25, scoring 19 goals and adding 17 assists across 72 regular-season appearances. The 17th selection in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, Bolduc is slated to start the season on the second line, alongside Kirby Dach and Patrik Laine, once he returns to full health.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Tallies twice on power play
Rotowire
Bolduc scored a pair of power-play goals on six shots in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Avalanche.
Bolduc has been steady lately, but this was his first multi-point effort since a two-goal game versus the Kraken on Feb. 25. The 22-year-old has 12 tallies and three assists over his last 20 contests, with seven of his 15 points in that span coming on the power play. He remains on the third line in the absence of Dylan Holloway (lower body), as Jimmy Snuggerud is getting a look in the top six instead, but Bolduc's power-play role will keep him on the radar for fantasy. Overall, Bolduc has had a breakout year with 18 goals, 33 points, 113 shots on net, 103 hits, 35 blocked shots, 35 PIM and a plus-20 rating across 68 appearances.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Scores power-play marker
Rotowire
Bolduc scored a power-play goal on five shots and added two hits in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Avalanche.
Bolduc dropped back to the third line with the return of Pavel Buchnevich from a four-game absence. Even with the smaller role, Bolduc was able to make an impact, as he stayed on the first power-play unit and cashed in at 10:57 of the first period. The 22-year-old is on the cusp of being a major power forward in fantasy. He's at 31 points over 65 outings this season, but he's earned 16 of them over 23 contests since the start of February. Bolduc has added 104 shots on net, 97 hits, 33 PIM and a plus-19 rating, and it's his growth this season that has helped contribute to the Blues' ability to overcome an early deficit to get into the playoff picture.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Scores goal in elevated role
Rotowire
Bolduc scored a goal in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Bolduc got the call to move up to the top line when Pavel Buchnevich (illness) was scratched Saturday. The 22-year-old Bolduc is worthy of an increased role after entering Saturday's contest with five goals and two assists over his previous 10 games. For the season, he's up to 14 goals, 28 points, 90 shots on net, a plus-15 rating and 88 hits across 61 appearances. His steady scoring lately makes him an option for fantasy managers seeking a boost in points and hits.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Logs power-play assist in win
Rotowire
Bolduc produced a power-play assist and four shots on goal in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Ducks.
Bolduc saw a three-game point streak end Saturday in Minnesota, but he was right back on the scoresheet a day lately. He hasn't gone multiple games without a point since Feb. 22-23, earning six goals and two helpers over his last 10 outings. For the season, the second-year forward has 12 goals, 14 assists, 86 shots on net, 79 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-13 rating over 59 appearances.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Plucks apple Saturday
Rotowire
Bolduc notched an assist, two shots on goal and three hits in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Kings.
Bolduc has gotten on the scoresheet in five of his last seven games (five goals, one assist). This was his first helper since Feb. 8 versus the Blackhawks, as he's shown up more with a finishing touch than a playmaking style recently. For the season, the 22-year-old forward is up to 24 points, 80 shots on net, 77 hits and a plus-15 rating through 55 appearances. Bolduc isn't a household name in fantasy just yet, but he's been impressive in a bottom-six role this season and should continue on an upward trajectory in the years to come.

Rotowire
Bolduc scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Friday's 4-3 win over the Ducks.

The 22-year-old forward is up to 11 tallies, 23 points, 78 shots on net, 74 hits and a plus-15 rating across 54 appearances this season. Bolduc's bottom-six role isn't encouraging for fantasy managers, but he could earn himself more ice time if he keeps scoring at a strong rate.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Tallies pair of points
Rotowire
Bolduc registered a goal, dished an assist, added three shots on net and blocked two shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to Florida.
Bolduc scored the opening goal of the contest and assisted Oskar Sundqvist's tally on the power play. His two-point performance was his first form of offensive production since Jan. 11, ending a seven-game drought. The 21-year-old has six goals, 11 assists, 62 shots on net and 58 hits across 45 appearances this season. The NHL sophomore has already surpassed his rookie point total of nine tallies. While Bolduc plays with the third unit at even strength, he has seen spurts of power-play time with St. Louis' first unit. If Bolduc can make Thursday's performance a more regular occurrence, he will be an exciting fantasy file in future seasons.

Rotowire
Bolduc registered an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Ducks.
Bolduc has a helper in back-to-back contests since he was scratched last Saturday versus the Blue Jackets. The 21-year-old will have to keep his performance up in order to stick in the lineup, but he's helping his cause by getting involved on offense. For the season, Bolduc has 14 points, 51 shots on net, 43 hits and a plus-10 rating through 36 appearances in a bottom-six role.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Garners helper Tuesday
Rotowire
Bolduc notched an assist and four shots on goal in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Wild.
Bolduc helped out on a Jake Neighbours tally in the second period. The helper was Bolduc's first point since Dec. 27, and he was scratched versus the Blue Jackets on Saturday. That indicates Bolduc doesn't have a ton of security in a bottom-six role, though he has been in the lineup a vast majority of the time this season. The 21-year-old has produced 13 points, 49 shots on net, 43 hits and a plus-9 rating through 35 appearances.

Blues' Zachary Bolduc: Nets brace Monday
Rotowire
Bolduc notched two goals, a plus-2 rating, four penalty minutes and seven shots in Monday's 5-2 win over the Rangers.
Bolduc found the back of the net for the first time this season in the early stages of the second period, and he completed his brace late in the third frame. That said, considering that Bolduc had accounted for only five points in 16 appearances before this two-goal explosion, fantasy managers should temper his expectations regarding what the 21-year-old forward can bring to the table going forward.
