Canadiens

Écoutez Alain Crête parler soccer avec Monsef Derraji et Wandrille Lefèvre et son opinion sur les réactions de Martin St Louis, à Ottawa.

Si les Canadiens sont toujours dans la course aux séries aujourd'hui, c'est notamment grâce à leurs succès en tirs de barrage. Ils dominent d'ailleurs la LNH ...

C’est très touchant de les voir aussi heureux. C’est rafraîchissant de les voir à l’œuvre. Les entraîneurs n’ont pas un grand rôle à jouer en tirs de barrage, mais ils sont quand même bien préparés grâce à la technologie. De cette façon, tu forces davantage le gardien à se déplacer, ce qui peut le déséquilibrer et créer des ouvertures. Sans ces quatre points supplémentaires, le CH serait à neuf points d’une place en séries au lieu de cinq, comme c’est le cas actuellement. Même s’il y a plusieurs joueurs blessés présentement, l’équipe continue de trouver le moyen de rester dans les matchs et d’aller chercher des points.

Head coach Martin St. Louis says he believes the 29-year-old former first-round draft pick has a high ceiling despite having no goals this season.

“Army spends a lot of extra time on the ice. In Monday’s 2-1 shootout win over the Calgary Flames, Armia had 16:42 of ice time, including 5:11 on the power play, but he still couldn’t score despite getting five shots on goal. But I wouldn’t say that I put him there just so that he could score a goal. St. Former GM Marc Bergevin rewarded Armia with a four-year, US$13.6-million contract that carries an annual salary-cap hit of $3.4 million through the 2024-25 season. Armia played only one game with the Sabres before he was traded to the Winnipeg Jets as part of a package deal that brought Evander Kane to Buffalo. Unfortunately, he also plays like that most nights. Armia can tease with his talent and as a result has become a very frustrating player to watch for Canadiens fans. It must be the same for head coach Martin St. Armia was ranked fourth among European skaters heading into the draft. You might have to look for him during some shifts, but then, suddenly, he scores the winner.” Article content

Montreal Canadiens' Jake Evans (71) scores against Anaheim Ducks goaltender Anthony Stolarz during second period NHL hockey action ...

The team’s leading scorer is Troy Terry, with 11 goals and 16 assists, while Trevor Zegras, the ninth overall pick in the 2019 draft, has 10 goals and 13 assists. The Ste-Agathe native is on an expiring contract and he has the remainder of the season to prove he’s healthy and deserving of a new deal. Drouin, who is trying to get his career back on track, is out of place at centre on the fourth line, but he received some power-play time, showing a commitment to playing at both ends of the ice. They are currently sixth in the Atlantic Division, with a 14-13-2 record and are only two points behind fourth-place Detroit.

"Our discipline kind of slipped away in the second," added Kirby Dach. "We have to have better discipline," forward Christian Dvorak told NHL.com's Callum Fraser after the Habs allowed two power-play goals. "I'm embarrassed the way we let Lukas down in the third," head coach Dallas Eakins told reporters postgame. Anaheim takes on a Montreal team that is looking to bounce back from a 3-2 loss last night in Ottawa. The Ducks recalled 23-year-old Olle Eriksson Ek from San Diego Wednesday, who projects to backup Dostal tonight. "It's unacceptable.

The Montreal Canadiens host the Anaheim Ducks on Thursday night at the Bell Centre. Here's everything you need to know before the game.

The good news is Jake Evans had his best game of the year. The strong effort was all for naught due to the indiscipline, and despite Anaheim’s rather weak roster, the Canadiens cannot afford another parade to the penalty box. Cam Fowler leads all Ducks defencemen in scoring with three goals and 12 assists. But the trend goes beyond their last stretch of games. It forced the Ducks to recall Olle Eriksson Ek from the San Diego Gulls leading up to tonight’s game. The puck drop is scheduled for 7:00 PM ET.

The Anaheim Ducks seem to become easier prey with every game that goes by. They'll try to show some fight when they visit the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday ...

Deuxième partie du sondage EKOS sur l'attitude des Canadiens envers les questions religieuses, cette fois-ci selon les différentes confessions.

Plus précisément : 76 % dans les provinces atlantiques, 77 % en Alberta et dans les autres provinces des Prairies, 79 % en Colombie-Britannique et 80 % en Ontario. Le taux d’opinion négative est plus élevé au Québec (29 %) qu’ailleurs au pays (de 13 % à 19 %). Par ailleurs, l’écart entre l’opinion positive à l’égard des chrétiens et celle à l’égard des musulmans est plus faible au Québec (16 points de pourcentage) que dans la plupart des autres régions (jusqu’à 20 points en Alberta, en faveur des chrétiens). Les résultats selon les intentions de vote donnent 54 % des électeurs du Parti conservateur du Canada qui ont une perception positive des chrétiens, la plus haute proportion parmi les partis fédéraux. Dans l’ensemble du Canada, le cumul des opinions positives et neutres est de 76 %.

John Klingberg scored two goals for Anaheim (8-20-3) while Troy Terry added another. Adam Henrique and Frank Vatrano both scored empty netters. Trevor Zegras ...

Kirby Dach found Caufield at the left faceoff circle, and he fired a one-timer to cut Anaheim's lead in half. Allen saved his team from a three-goal deficit in the second period when Caufield coughed up the puck to Zegras. The Ducks entered the game without a goal to account for in their past two games and a total of eight periods.

The Montreal Canadiens took on the 32nd ranked team in the league on Thursday night. A victory was expected but a victory was not attained.

The second line is not up to standards yet. The goal up front is to have as many top-six forwards as possible because they will be the ones to either get it done or fail. The Canadiens were playing their fourth game in six nights, so they had a difficult time bringing any energy to the game. The Canadiens have three with Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and Kirby Dach composing the first line. He ripped a one-timer for his 17th goal of the season. The Oilers are set up front. If the goalie is acquired first, he’ll steal too many games and the General Manager won’t lose enough to acquire the other vital pieces. The Montreal Canadiens took on the 32nd ranked team in the league on Thursday night. Losing is a must. With everyone unaware, Caufield wheeled around to the other side and found an open net. That’s all it took for Cole Caufield to make a dull game come to life. The final count — 5-2.

À deux occasions, au cours du second engagement, le Canadien a eu droit à des huées bien senties de la part de ses partisans. Au centre pour les deux premières périodes, il a pris la place de Juraj Slafkovsky à la gauche du troisième trio au cours des 20 dernières minutes. Cole Caufield (17) marque de son bureau en avantage numérique et réduit l'écart à un seul filet. Sur le second, il a fait des nœuds dans les patins de Kaiden Guhle avant de passer à John Klingberg. En déjouant Lukas Dostal, de sa position habituelle, Cole Caufield a mis un terme à une sécheresse de 23 supériorités numériques sans but du Tricolore. Il s'agit du premier but en 23 supériorités numériques pour le Tricolore. Le Suédois n’a pas eu de difficulté à marquer son deuxième but de la soirée. Sur le premier but des Ducks, il a offert un relais précis à Troy Terry. Par conséquent, ils ont dû jouer du hockey de rattrapage à compter de la deuxième période. «J’ai pensé à toi après le match, a lancé St-Louis à la collègue qui lui avait posé la question. De quoi ajouter l’insulte à l’injure. Les Montréalais sont plutôt sortis comme une équipe qui disputait un deuxième match en autant de soirs, c’est-à-dire amorphe.

Anaheim 5, Cole Caufield 2. Ducks score twice 28 seconds apart in first period to put the game (mostly) out of reach.

The Canadiens gave him a pass in the first two periods failing to put any pressure on him, particularly during the their first three power plays. With John Gibson and Anthony Stolarz nursing injuries, the Ducks were forced to start 22-year-old rookie Lukas Dostal. This was a game the Canadiens should have won. Adam Henrique and Frank Vatrano added empty-netters in the final 90 seconds. It was his 18th goal of the season. Article content

Au lendemain d une défaite de 3 2 face aux Sénateurs d'Ottawa, les Canadiens affrontent les Ducks d'Anaheim au Centre Bell.

Listening to the young Ducks stars talk about their season of misery made it clear that the Canadiens young players are in a better place.

So, I think the biggest thing is we’ve got a great group of guys in here, we’re just going to stick together and gut this thing out.” The two of them spoke in sombre tones after the Ducks’ morning skate Thursday about how this season has gone for them, a season that sounded like it was already over when there are still four months of hockey left to play. McTavish, coming off winning MVP at the World Junior Championship for Canada in August, has had a hard crash from that high point in his career. But I think it’s part of the development, and it’s part of learning to win. But all we have is each other at this point and we’re leaning on each other for pretty much everything. But we find ourselves in many games in a position to win, I feel so far this year, and at that point I feel it’s let’s try to win this game.” Louis the benefit of the doubt that it will be discussed with Slafkovský at some point, if that hasn’t already happened. Louis said he decided he would go with “the guys that were going,” which meant putting [Jonathan Drouin](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/jonathan-drouin-dQIJgaJd8HrTMM6x/) in Slafkovský’s spot on the third line and taking Slafkovský off the power play and having him sit for the final half of the third period.

His answers revealed there is a bar the team has set, and when it doesn’t reach that bar, this is the result.
