Maria Purpura passed away. This is the full obituary where you can share condolences and memories. Published in the Gloucester Times on 2024-05-20.

Yesterday was a rare hockey-free Saturday for the Montreal Canadiens this season. Even so, Habs fans weren’t bored, as there wereseveral games to watch involving Habs prospects, including the NCAA Hockey East Conference final, dominated by Jacob Fowler. There was also the all-important Laval Rocket game, which the latter eventually won 3-2. In short, there […]

When you think of Nick Suzuki’s 2023-24 season, it’s pretty hard to see it as anything other than an all-round success. The Canadiens’ captain has scored 64 points in 69 games so far this campaign, and his 27 goals this season are a personal career high. He may be starting to drift away from the […]

For many years now (and I’m being polite), the arrival of the playoffs in the spring has been no picnic for Maple Leafs fans. Either their team doesn’t make it, or it finds a way to collapse when the path is all paved. As recently as last spring, the Ontario team was carrying the weight […]

So here we are, on the eve of CMJ 2024, always a great time of year for hockey fans! The Habs, with their many first-round picks in recent years, will once again be well-represented at this event, with four top prospects. At least three of them will be playing important roles for their respective nations, […]

Last night, the Canadiens bought themselves a Christmas present by winning their last game before the holiday break. Martin St-Louis’ team won 5-2 against the miserable Chicago Blackhawks. I say miserable, because on paper and in the standings, the Hawks are probably the worst team in the National Hockey League. The Blackhawks could have been […]

The Montreal Canadiens will be off until December 28 after giving themselves a Christmas present last night with a solid 5-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks. It’s a well-deserved break for Martin St-Louis’ team, who find themselves just three points behind the Carolina Hurricanes and the final playoff spot. By way of comparison, the Habs […]

American Thanksgiving is over, and the playoff picture is probably at least 80% complete. And the Canadiens won’t be sneaking into the remaining 20%. In fact, they’ve never had a chance since Kirby Dach’s injury. And now Newhook’s… In the next few weeks, we should also start trading veterans and giving more chances and responsibilities […]

Of course, there’s been a lot of talk lately about goalie rotation, and rightly so. After all, it has to stop, and I don’t know how many times we’ve listed the reasons why. For the purposes of this article, I’m going to focus on a less crucial issue, but one that Kent Hughes will eventually […]

A quarter of the way through Montreal’s season, it’s time to face facts: the Habs aren’t going to make the playoffs. If yesterday’s game is indicative of anything, I wonder what other demonstration you’d need. The team’s record (9-10-2) isn’t disastrous for a rebuilding club, but over the next few weeks and months, we can […]
