While the scoring has been down for the 20-year-old -- just four goals through 31 outings -- Slafkovsky has been more physical in 2024-25. He's averaging 2.4 hits per game, and his 75 thumps rank fourth on the team.

Emil Heineman - Slides assist in loss Heineman had an assist, one shot on net and two hits in Monday's 5-4 loss to Columbus.

Joel Armia - Runs streak to four games Armia scored a goal on two shots with a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Armia gave Montreal its first and only lead of the game early in the third period. He put himself in position in the slot and golfed home a feed from Jake Evans. It was the sixth goal of the season for Armia, who has points in four consecutive outings. The Canadiens' fourth line, which contributed two tallies in the loss, is responsible for six goals in the last four games.

He later assisted on a Joel Armia tally in the third that gave Montreal its first and only lead of the game. The Canadiens' fourth line has been hot of late, with Evans leading the charge with points in four consecutive games including goals in the last three. His 21 points (eight goals, 13 assists) through 34 outings puts Evans on track to break his career-high 29 points over 72 games played in 2021.

David Savard - Rare two-pointer in loss Savard scored a goal on three shots and assisted on another in Monday's 5-4 loss to Columbus. He also had four blocks and one hit.
Impact Savard helped Montreal scramble back from 2-0 and 3-1 deficits. He scored Montreal's first goal early in the second period then triggered a break that led to the goal that tied the game at 3-3. It was the defenseman's first two-point night of the season.

Sam Montembeault - Win streak stopped Montembeault allowed five goals on 32 shots in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact The Canadiens overcame a pair of two-goal deficits and went up 4-3 early in the third period, but Columbus tallied two more times to stop Montembeault's win streak at three games. Despite inconsistency, Montembeault is locked in as the No. 1 goalie for Montreal, which does not have an attractive alternative. This was his 10th consecutive start, and he's third in the league with 27 starts behind only Connor Hellebuyck and Juuse Saros. Montembeault will get three days off for the NHL's Christmas break before Montreal returns to action Friday at Florida, the second of a six-game road trip.

Patrik Laine - Exits Monday's game Laine (upper body) is questionable to return to Monday's game in Columbus.
Impact Laine was not on the bench to start the second period, and his status for the remainder of the contest remains in question. The right-shot winger has been a force since making his season debut Dec. 3, racking up eight power-play goals through nine games prior to Monday.
