Returning to lineup Laine will make his 2024-25 season debut Tuesday against the Islanders.
Impact Laine will slot in on a line with Kirby Dach and Juraj Slafkovsky. It may take some time for Laine to get readjusted to the speed of the NHL -- in addition to not playing yet this season, Laine suited up for just 18 regular-season games in 2023-24. The right-shot winger should see top-six minutes along with power-play time against the Islanders.

The Quebec native has struggled lately, allowing 12 goals on 82 shots over a 0-2-1 stretch. The Islanders rank 27th in the NHL with 2.56 goals per game through 25 contests.

Joshua Roy loaned to Laval Rocket | Montréal Canadiens The forward was recalled on November 25

Sent to AHL Roy was assigned to AHL Laval on Monday.
Impact Roy spent the past week with the Canadiens, logging a hit, a blocked shot and a minus-1 rating while averaging 10:57 of ice time over four appearances. However, he'll now head back to the minors, which could signal that Patrik Laine (knee) is on the cusp of returning to game action.

Points in three straight Hutson logged an assist, three shots on net, one block, one hit and four PIM in Sunday's 6-3 loss to Boston.
Impact Hutson was involved Montreal's second goal, which set off a mini-rally and put pressure on the Bruins, which had been cruising for most of the game. The helper was his third assist in as many games and gave the rookie 14 for the season. Hutson has proven himself to be a legit playmaker. He's a regular on the second power-play unit, but there's a chance he could eventually play alongside Mike Matheson on the top unit.

Snares assist in loss Evans had an assist, two shots on net and two hits in Sunday's 6-3 loss to Boston.
Impact Evans picked up the primary helper on Emil Heineman's tally early in the third, which ignited a late spark from Montreal. The assist gave Evans five points over the last seven games. He's returned to the fourth line but has earned the trust of the coaching staff and could easily shift back to a middle-six role, as head coach Martin St. Louis is known to tweak the lines.

Logs assist, PIM in loss Xhekaj had an assist, two shots on net, two blocks, four hits and 12 PIM in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Bruins.
Impact Xhekaj did the hard work on Montreal's first goal, moving the puck around Boston defenders before sending it to the crease where the puck bounced off Cole Caufield and into the net. It was his third assist of the season, all coming in the last seven games. He also channeled the longstanding Montreal-Boston rivalry and got into it with Mark Kastelic, with each picking up roughing and misconduct penalties. He leads the Canadiens with 37 PIM through 21 outings.

Tallies in loss Sunday Heineman scored a goal in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Bruins.
Impact Heineman has made an impact with three goals, six shots on net and 17 hits over his last five games. The 23-year-old forward is playing on the fourth line, so it's tough to expect him to continue his surge on offense. Overall, he's at six goals, two helpers, 29 shots, 59 hits and a minus-4 rating through 23 appearances this season.

Two helpers in loss Suzuki had two assists and four shots on net in Sunday's 6-3 loss to Boston.
Impact Suzuki, the Canadiens leader in points, began December as he finished November. After posting nine points over the final eight games last month, he assisted on both of Cole Caufield's goals Sunday. Montreal's captain is on a point-per-game pace with nine goals and 15 assists over 24 outings.

Lights lamp twice in loss Caufield scored two goals on five shots on net, adding a block and a hit in Sunday's 6-3 loss to Boston.
Impact Caufield found the back of the net for a third straight game. An Arber Xhekaj shot caromed in off his leg, and he later snuck a shot through Jeremy Swayman's legs. The second tally made it a 5-3 game with plenty of time left. The two strikes increased his season total to 16 (tied for third in NHL) through 24 outings.

Ambushed in Boston Primeau allowed five goals on 29 shots in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Bruins.
Impact The Bruins jumped on Primeau and the Canadiens with three goals in a 70-second span midway through the first period. The fourth goal allowed was a short-handed one, but it did come on a breakaway, which suggests Primeau wasn't always supported by the team in front of him. Still, it was the fourth time in seven starts that he's allowed at least five goals. The Habs next game is Tuesday at home against the Islanders.
