But general manager Kent Hughes and executive vice-president Jeff Gorton won’t deviate from their long-term plans to do so.
The Canadiens will miss the playoffs for a third straight season after finishing last in the Atlantic Division with a 30-36-16 record, improving by eight points in the standings compared to a year ago. “We’ve improved from year to year and we expect there to be an improvement. How big that is, we’ll see,” he said. “I read Geoff Molson said we’d like to be in the mix, and I think that’s a fair characterization. Whether we push it over the threshold or not, I don’t know, but we need to be better.Montreal ranked in the bottom 10 of the league in goals for and against, and both special teams entering Wednesday’s NHL action.
They also noted the progress of Kaiden Guhle and Mike Matheson, who became the first Canadiens defenceman to break 60 points since P.K. Subban in 2014-15, and Sam Montembeault and Cayden Primeau becoming a dependable goalie tandem.
