Canadiens' Alexandre Carrier: Plucks apple Sunday
Carrier logged an assist in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.
Carrier helped out on Brendan Gallagher's tally in the first period. The 29-year-old Carrier has seen big minutes as a shutdown defenseman in Montreal's top four, but he was limited to one helper over 15 outings in December. For the season, he's at 10 points, 29 shots on net, 20 hits, 87 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a minus-9 rating through 42 appearances.

Canadiens' Phillip Danault: Earns two helpers
Danault logged two assists, two shots on goal and two PIM in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.
Danault picked up his first two points in six games since he was traded to Montreal from Los Angeles. He has slotted into a third-line role since the deal, taking over for Jake Evans (lower body), who is expected to miss most or all of January. Danault has seven helpers, 49 shots on net, 30 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 36 total appearances between the two teams this season.

Canadiens' Brendan Gallagher: Scores in Sunday's win
Gallagher scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.
Gallagher ended an 11-game goal drought with his first-period tally to open the scoring. The 33-year-old winger was limited to two assists, 19 shots on net and 12 hits in that span. For the season, he's earned three goals, 14 points, 70 shots, 48 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 42 appearances. His 4.3 shooting percentage is a career low, but even with a strong second half, he's not a reliable fantasy target in a bottom-six role.

Canadiens' Lane Hutson: Scores winning goal Sunday
Hutson scored the game-winning goal and added a power-play assist in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.
The blueliner came through for the Canadiens in overtime, scoring the game-winning goal with a snap shot that went past Jake Oettinger for Hutson's career-best seventh goal of the campaign. It was also his second game-winner. Hutson has been on fire of late for the Canadiens, cracking the scoresheet in five of his last six games while earning four multi-point efforts and 10 total points (two goals, eight helpers) in that span.

Canadiens' Oliver Kapanen: Scores in win over Dallas
Kapanen scored a goal in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.
Kapanen has struggled a bit with his consistency on a game-to-game basis, but the 22-year-old forward has cracked the scoresheet in five of his last eight contests. Over that stretch, Kapanen has earned six points (three goals, three assists), 19 shots, two hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating. Kapanen should continue to rack up stats due to his top-six role in the lineup.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Another multi-point effort
Slafkovsky recorded a power-play goal and an even-strength assist in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.
Slafkovsky recorded his two scoring contributions in the second period, assisting on Oliver Kapanen's goal at 11:59 and then burying a slap shot past Jake Oettinger with 1:21 left in the frame. The 21-year-old winger continues to thrive in an expanded role and has been delivering solid numbers as a top-six forward. He has posted five multi-point games in his last seven contests, totaling five goals and six assists in that span.

Canadiens' Sam Montembeault: Picks up win
Montembeault stopped 24 of 27 shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.
Montembeault made his second start since ending his loan at AHL Laval on Dec. 16, and he's earned back-to-back OT wins against Florida and Dallas. In those two games, the 29-year-old has allowed five goals on 57 shots faced. He should continue as the Canadiens' No. 1 goaltender ahead of Jakub Dobes and Jacob Fowler going forward.

Canadiens' Sam Montembeault: Starting Sunday
Montembeault will start Sunday's contest against the Stars, Canadiens insider Patrick Friolet reports.
After just two starts in December, Montembeault will make his first start of 2026 on Sunday in Dallas. The 29-year-old is 6-6-1 with a 3.53 GAA and an .863 save percentage on the campaign. He'll get another shot at a Stars team that beat him twice on six shots after he came on in relief of Jakub Dobes on Nov. 13 in a 7-0 Stars win.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Not playing Sunday
Anderson (upper body) won't play against Dallas on Sunday, according to Patrick Friolet of RDS.
Anderson will miss his second straight game, and it's unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup. He has provided nine goals, 13 points, 52 shots on net and 74 hits across 40 appearances this season. Owen Beck will occupy a bottom-six role in Sunday's lineup against the Stars due to Anderson's absence.

Canadiens' Jacob Fowler: Solid effort in loss
Fowler stopped 17 of 19 shots on net in Saturday's 2-0 loss to the Blues.
Fowler tended a decent game, which included a scoreless third period, but was outdueled by a Jordan Binnington shutout. With the loss, Fowler now holds a 3-2-2 record with a 2.57 GAA and a .903 save percentage through seven appearances this season. Saturday marked his fourth game allowing two goals or fewer in seven tries. The young netminder has held his own at the NHL level despite Montreal's recent inconsistencies in finding the win column. He is a solid spot start in fantasy for the time being and is trending toward taking over the lead role between the pipes. Sunday's second half of Montreal's back-to-back will likely go to Sam Montembeault, but Fowler could start Wednesday against the Flames.

Canadiens' Marc Del Gaizo: Two goals in AHL loss
Del Gaizo scored a pair of goals in AHL Laval's 4-3 loss to Utica on Saturday.
Del Gaizo and Utica's Ethan Edwards provided unexpected sparks from the blue line in this contest, with each defenseman scoring twice. With three points over two games to start January, Del Gaizo is trying to move past an inconsistent December. He's now at four goals, 12 points and a plus-11 rating through 24 appearances this season.

Anderson (undisclosed) won't play against St. Louis on Saturday, per Guillaume Lefrancois of La Presse.
Anderson will miss at least one game after getting injured in Thursday's 7-5 win over Carolina. He has contributed nine goals, 13 points, 52 shots on net and 74 hits across 40 appearances this season. Owen Beck will replace Anderson in Saturday's lineup.

Matheson has four goals, 18 points, 18 PIM, 49 shots, 23 hits and 83 blocks in 37 appearances this season. Following a one-game absence, Matheson will replace Adam Engstrom in Saturday's lineup.

Fowler made 17 saves on 21 shots in a 5-4 shootout loss to Tampa Bay last Sunday. He has a 3-1-2 record while allowing 16 goals on 167 shots in six NHL appearances this season. St. Louis sits 32nd in the league with 2.50 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign.

Canadiens' Sean Farrell: Three-point effort for Laval
Farrell scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Laval's 5-4 overtime win over Utica on Friday.
Farrell ended a seven-game goal drought with this performance. He's been heating up lately with eight points over his last three games. The 24-year-old has a total of seven goals, 20 helpers and a plus-4 rating through 32 appearances. He continues to play well as he waits for his first NHL call-up since late in the 2022-23 campaign.
