Canadiens' Alex Newhook: Logs helper in win
Newhook notched an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
Newhook was initially questionable for this contest due to an illness, but he was able to play. He also snapped a six-game point drought while filling his usual second-line role, though he had just 13:37 of ice time. The 23-year-old forward has been inconsistent in 2024-25 with 10 points, 55 shots on net, 42 hits, 14 PIM and a minus-13 rating through 43 appearances.

Canadiens' Alexandre Carrier: Offers pair of assists
Carrier logged two assists and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
Carrier has picked up seven helpers over 12 contests with the Canadiens, who are 9-2-1 since his arrival. The 28-year-old made a positive impact Tuesday, helping out on goals by Patrik Laine and Kirby Dach for his second multi-point effort in a Montreal sweater. Carrier is up to 14 points, 40 shots on net, 68 blocked shots, 44 hits and a minus-13 rating over 40 appearances this season when accounting for his time with Nashville. While his ice time is largely unchanged with Montreal, his productivity is up to a level that allows him to be a depth option in fantasy.

Canadiens' Lane Hutson: Trio of assists in win
Hutson notched three assists, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
Hutson has a goal and eight assists during his five-game point streak, which includes a pair of three-point efforts. The 20-year-old picked up a helper in each period Tuesday, assisting on goals by Mike Matheson, Kirby Dach and Cole Caufield. For the season, Hutson is up to 35 points (14 on the power play), 49 shots on net, 56 blocked shots, 21 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 43 appearances. He looks like the real deal while occupying spots on the top pairing and first power-play unit, so fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to roster him or have him in their active lineup.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Finds twine again
Laine scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
Laine's goal was his 10th of the season and his first to come at even strength -- the first nine were all on the power play. The 26-year-old winger is as dialed in as ever with 12 points through 15 appearances. He's added 43 shots on net and a minus-2 rating. His 23.3 shooting percentage will likely dip, but Laine has an elite shot and isn't afraid to pump pucks toward the net in high volumes, so his production should be fine.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Goal, assist in win
Matheson scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, added two PIM, logged two hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
The goal was a dazzler for any player, let alone a defenseman. Matheson was able to convert on an end-to-end rush by himself to tie the game at 1-1 in the first period. The blueliner also helped out on Cole Caufield's third-period tally, which was the game-winner. The arrival of Lane Hutson has stolen some of Matheson's thunder, but he's still a capable all-around defenseman in his own right. For the season, the 30-year-old has three goals, 22 points, 82 shots on net, 85 blocked shots, 35 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 41 appearances. His tally Tuesday was his first since Nov. 30.

Canadiens' Cole Caufield: Keeps rolling with two points
Caufield scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
Caufield has scored in seven of his last nine games while adding three assists in that span. More recently, he has three multi-point efforts over his last four contests. The 24-year-old winger was excellent throughout the first half of the campaign and is showing no signs of slowing down. He's at 24 goals -- four off his career high -- while adding 18 assists, 128 shots on net, 35 hits, 14 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 43 appearances. This is likely to be a career year for Caufield as long as he stays healthy.

Canadiens' Kirby Dach: Scores twice Tuesday
Dach scored a pair of goals, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
Dach gave the Canadiens their first lead with a goal at 18:34 of the second period. He also added an insurance tally late in the third. The 23-year-old has looked good lately with six goals and an assist over his last nine contests. For the season, the second-line center has eight goals, 16 points, 70 shots on net, 70 hits, 32 PIM and a minus-23 rating through 43 appearances, but it looks like his game has taken an upward turn in recent weeks.

Canadiens' Sam Montembeault: Allows three goals in win
Montembeault stopped 22 of 25 shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
Montembeault has won four of his last six starts, though this wasn't the prettiest of efforts. He's allowed a total of 16 goals in that span while going 4-1-1. Overall, he improved to 16-15-3 with a 2.88 GAA and a .900 save percentage through 34 contests. Jakub Dobes has impressed in limited action, but Montembeault is still the Canadiens' top goalie. Montembeault is likely to get the nod Thursday in Dallas after making 35 saves in a 2-1 loss to the Stars in Montreal on Saturday.

Canadiens' Sam Montembeault: Facing Utah
Montembeault is set to start in Tuesday's road game versus Utah, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
Montembeault was on the losing end of a goaltender's duel against Jake Oettinger in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to Dallas. The 28-year-old Montembeault has a 1-1-1 record while allowing nine goals on 81 shots through three starts in January. The Quebec native was defeated by Utah 3-2 in overtime Nov. 26. Utah ranks 25th in the NHL with 2.79 goals per game.

Canadiens' Alex Newhook: Good to go
Newhook (illness) will play against Utah on Tuesday.
Newhook won't miss any game action after sitting out Monday's practice because of the flu. He has earned seven goals, nine points, 40 hits and 54 shots on net through 42 appearances this season. Michael Pezzetta will replace Emil Heineman (upper body) in Tuesday's lineup.

Canadiens' Emil Heineman: Sustains injury in traffic accident
Heineman suffered an upper-body injury in a traffic accident as a pedestrian Monday and will be sidelined for 3-4 weeks, the team announced Tuesday.
Heineman hadn't registered a point in his last four outings, but he's been productive this season in a depth role with 10 goals and 17 points through 41 appearances. If Alex Newhook (illness) isn't ready to go Tuesday versus Utah, Montreal may be forced to roll with 11 forwards and seven defensemen. Michael Pezzetta figures to see consistent playing time while Heineman is on the shelf.

Canadiens' Alex Newhook: Under the weataher
Newhook will not participate in Monday's practice session due to the flu.
Newhook is currently stuck in a six-game point drought, during which he has recorded 10 shots, 12 hits and two blocked shots while averaging 15:16 of ice time. If the forward isn't able to recover in time for Tuesday's matchup with Utah, Josh Anderson and Brendan Gallagher will both be candidates to move into a top-six role in Newhook's stead.

Canadiens' David Savard: Three blocks in return
Savard had three blocked shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Stars.
Savard returned to the lineup after missing four games due to an upper-body injury. He resumed a role on the third pair with Arber Xhekaj. Jayden Struble, who had filled in while Savard was unavailable, was a healthy scratch.

Canadiens' Lane Hutson: Logs power-play helper
Hutson had a power-play assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to Dallas.
Hutson worked a back-and-forth with Nick Suzuki, who set up Patrik Laine's tally. It was the fourth consecutive game on the scoresheet for the defenseman, who has five points during the streak and leads the team with 14 power-play assists.

Canadiens' Nick Suzuki: Point streak reaches six
Suzuki had an assist and two shots on net in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to Dallas.
It didn't take Montreal long -- just 14 seconds -- after a couple of Dallas penalties left them two skaters down. The usual suspects were involved with the goal; Suzuki and Lane Hutson picked up the helpers on a Patrik Laine goal. It was the sixth straight game on the scoresheet for Suzuki, who has seven points (three on the power play) during the streak.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Scores in return
Laine scored a power-play goal on three shots, blocked one shot and delivered two hits in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Stars.
Laine, who returned to action after missing four games with flu-like symptoms, took advantage of a 5-on-3 power play. His one-timer from the left faceoff circle put Montreal up 1-0 in the second period. The tally was his ninth of the season, all of which have come on the power play.

Canadiens' Sam Montembeault: Hard-luck loss Saturday
Montembeault allowed one goal on 35 shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to Dallas.
Montembeault, who struggled over his last five starts with a 3.46 goals-against average and an .869 save percentage, was on point Saturday. He's been inconsistent this season but also streaky, and this strong performance could trigger a hot stretch. The Canadiens next play Tuesday in Utah.
