@teapottoffoIi Definitely not Victor Mete. That's obviously Victor Hedman.

With 6G in 10GP to start '23-24, this is the most goals Sean Monahan has had to start an NHL season since he was a rookie in '13-14 and also put up 6G in his first 10GP as an 18/19 year old.

*Let this be a reminder to turn your clocks back tonight like Sean Monahan already has*

Congrats to Jim Gilchrist on 3,000 calls in the OHL last night. Incredible broadcasting milestone.

One of the absolute best guys you will ever meet on the circuit. A good pre-game laugh will Jim is an essential part of preparation for a game in Kingston.

[Ontario Hockey League @OHLHockey]

Congratulations, Jim Gilchrist 👏

The legendary @KingstonFronts broadcaster was honoured at the Leon's Centre ahead of his 3000th #OHL game tonight!

This will be the 1st meeting between Rohrer and Reinbacher in the Swiss National League.

Pretty cool moment for two Austrian kids who grew up 15mins from one another, moved to Switzerland at 12yrs old to further their hockey careers, and are now both Montréal draft picks.

[Victor Findlay @Victor_Findlay]

David Reinbacher returns from injury today to suit up for Kloten vs Zürich. It's a game that also features another Habs prospect in Vinzenz Rohrer playing on a line with former Canadien Sven Andrighetto for ZSC.

David Reinbacher's newest teammate in Kloten is former Montréal Canadien defenceman Nathan Beaulieu 👀

@frankcorrado22 @TSNHockey Nice, can you breakdown Frölunda's forecheck in the post-Joel Lundqvist era next?

[Victor Findlay @Victor_Findlay]

Through the first 6GP of the season, the Montréal Canadiens have allowed the fewest 5-on-5 goals in the entire NHL.

#1. Montréal: 4 GA (6 GP)
#2. Boston: 5 GA (6 GP)
#3. Anaheim: 6 GA (6 GP)
#4. Dallas: 7 GA (5 GP)
#5. Arizona: 7 GA (6 GP)

[Victor Findlay @Victor_Findlay]

As a team, Montréal are 59.5% in the face-off circle through 4 games. That ranks #1 in the NHL with the 2nd place team (New York Rangers) coming it at 55.7% on draws through 5 games.

Last season the Habs were 48.5% on face-offs, ranking them 25th among NHL teams.

[Victor Findlay @Victor_Findlay]

While it's still early, as of today, the Montréal Canadiens have 3 of the top 4 face-off takers in % among qualified candidates in the entire NHL.

1. Jake Evans (MTL): 64.0%
2. Sean Monahan (MTL): 63.9%
3. Boone Jenner (CBJ): 63.2%
4. Nick Suzuki (MTL): 63.0%

Kaiden Guhle back on the ice this morning ahead of practice after leaving Tuesday’s game vs Minnesota with an upper-body injury. @TSN690

[Kenzie Lalonde @KenzieTSN]

Kaiden Guhle will be day-to-day with an upper-body injury. #Habs @TSNHockey

[Victor Findlay @Victor_Findlay]

@adammcg1983 Thanks Adam! It's been fun getting to chat with some other NHL commentators about their preparation process. While new-school technology is becoming more prevalent, at the end of the day, names and numbers are what matters most for us.

[Victor Findlay @Victor_Findlay]

@adammcg1983 I still print out roster sheets that I use for primary ID and important info (Number/Age/Height/Weight/etc.) The stuff you see in Excel there is more statistical/biographical. I'll only look at that during stoppage of play. Excel is nice because I can edit on the fly.

[Kenzie Lalonde @KenzieTSN]

Kirby Dach is not on the ice at practice today #Habs
