The netminder needed just one more win to top the 16 he put up last campaign, but he's instead poised to finish the year tied with that number again. Looking ahead to 2024-25, the 27-year-old Montembeault should enter the campaign as the presumptive No. 1, though Cayden Primeau could challenge for more opportunities. |

The 27-year-old netminder snapped a three-start losing streak with the performance, a stretch in which he'd surrendered 13 goals on 92 shots, but Montembeault doesn't seem to be in any danger of losing his grip on the starting job for the Habs. |

Montembeault will be between the pipes at home versus the Coyotes on Tuesday. - Montembeault is mired in a three-game losing streak while seeing action in just three of the Habs' last eight contests. The heavy rotation with Jake Allen and Cayden Primeau continues to hurt Montembeault's fantasy value, though Allen is rumored to be available in trade talks prior to the March 8 trade deadline. If he can get more minutes, Montembeault should offer increased fantasy value as the Canadiens' No. 1 option. |

Montembeault made 20 saves in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres. - All of Buffalo's scoring came in the second period, and while Montembeault kept the visitors off the board in the third, Montreal couldn't find an equalizer.

Overall, Montembeault's now 12-9-4 with a .903 save percentage and 3.21 GAA while sharing the crease with Jake Allen and Cayden Primeau this season.

Montembeault turned aside 35 shots in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Stars. - He was by far the busier netminder on the afternoon, as Montreal got out-shot 38-20, and Dallas got three pucks past Montembeault in the second period. Seeing a lot of rubber is nothing new for him, though -- Montembeault has faced 30 or more shots in every outing since the beginning of January, posting a 5-3-1 record in nine starts with a 3.28 GAA and .915 save percentage. |
None |

Montembeault made 43 saves in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Islanders. - It was a stellar performance from the 27-year-old netminder -- Montreal got out-shot 46-26 on the night, but the only pucks to beat Montembeault came on New York power plays. An eight-goal dud against the Bruins in his last start spoils his ratios, but that was the only time in seven January starts that he's given up more than three goals. On the season, Montembeault carries an 11-7-4 record through 23 appearances with a 3.10 GAA and .905 save percentage. |

Montembeault turned aside 28 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Devils. - The 27-year-old netminder took a shutout into the third period, but two quick power-play goals by New Jersey to begin the frame made for a very nervous finish. Cole Caufield was able to find a winner with less than five minutes left to preserve Montembeault's win, however. Monty's allowed three goals or less in five straight starts to begin January as Montreal's clear No. 1 in the crease, going 3-1-1 with a 2.58 GAA and .930 save percentage.

Montembeault is expected to start at home against San Jose on Thursday, Guillaume Lefrancois of La Presse reports. - Montembeault has won his last two starts while saving 75 of 81 shots (.926 save percentage). He's 9-5-3 with a 2.93 GAA and a .906 save percentage in 18 contests this year.

Montembeault made 45 saves in a 4-3 shootout win over the Rangers on Saturday. - The Habs were up 3-0 early in the second period, but couldn't hold the lead, but that wasn't on the Montembeault.

He then stopped all three shots he faced in the shootout, including a desperation reach back to swipe away the puck after Mika Zibanejad tried a Forsberg move. Montembeault has won two straight over impressive rivals (Rangers and Stars). He's still part of a three-headed netminding monster, but the hottest hand should win out, at least short term. |

Montembeault will get the starting nod at home against the Rangers on Saturday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports. - Montembeault has conceded three or more goals in each of his last six contests, posting a 2-2-2 record and .885 save percentage along the way. With three netminders on the roster, Montembeault has made just 17 appearances this season in which he is 8-5-3 with a career-best 2.94 GAA. If the club opts to trade Jake Allen, the 27-year-old Montembeault could see an uptick in starts down the stretch. |

Montembeault made 30 saves in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Stars. - The netminder had to withstand a furious late rally from Dallas to secure his eighth win of the season, as Montreal held a 4-1 lead with less than four minutes remaining in the third period. Montembeault has given up at least three goals in six straight starts, going 2-2-2 over that stretch with a 3.43 GAA and .885 save percentage, but at least for now he remains in the top spot in the Habs' goalie committee, ahead of Jake Allen and Cayden Primeau. |

Montembeault will get the starting nod on the road against Minnesota on Thursday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports. - Montembeault has put up decent numbers in his last five outings, posting a 3-1-1 record with a 2.76 GAA and .916 save percentage. Despite his performance, the Habs continue to utilize a three-goalie setup, which will limit the netminder's fantasy value. Still, Montembeault should be considered the No. 1 option in Montreal. |

Montembeault made 30 saves in a 5-3 win over the Islanders on Saturday. - Montembeault rolled into the third period with a 4-0 lead, but surrendered two goals in a 1:36 span early in the frame to give the Isles life. The game got tight at 14:06 when Bo Horvat shortened the lead to 4-3. An empty-net goal in the last minute gave the Habs and Montembeault some room to breathe. He's the lead hand in a crowded crease in Montreal and will continue to see most of the action. And with the goalie market heating up, Montembeault's workload could get heavier if Jake Allen is coveted by another team. |

Montembeault will be between the pipes at home against the Islanders on Saturday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports. - Montembeault has seen the most starts (12) of the Habs' three netminders and is sporting the best save percentage (.911). As such, he should continue to serve as the first-choice option in the crease. Still, from a fantasy perspective, Montembeault's value is limited as long as the team continues to rotate through three netminders. |

Montembeault stopped 27 shots in regulation and overtime and eight of 12 shootout attempts in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Penguins. - Montreal grabbed a 3-1 lead late in the first period, but two power-play tallies by Pittsburgh in the second period tied it up and eventually force a wild shootout session that saw the first four skaters find the back of the net before Montembeault and Alex Nedeljkovic could regain their footing. Montembeault has just one regulation loss in his last five starts, going 3-1-1 with a 2.77 GAA and .916 save percentage while Jake Allen and Cayden Primeau saw three starts each during that time. Montembeault is nominally the No. 1 netminder for Montreal, but unless the team makes a trade, he won't see enough work to be useful in a lot of fantasy formats. |

Montembeault made 38 saves in a 4-0 los to Los Angeles on Thursday. - The score probably would have been higher had it not been for some of Montembeault's acrobatics against a thoroughly dominating Kings lineup, which shut out the Habs twice in the last 12 days. The loss snapped Montembeault's personal three-game winning streak. Still, this is the netminder's best NHL season, with a 2.78 GAA and .912 save percentage. In the right matchup, Montembeault may be worthy of your blue paint. |

Montembeault made 26 saves in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets. - The 27-year-old netminder made a number of big stops while the game still hung in the balance, before Montreal pulled ahead for good in the third period. Montembeault has won three of his last four starts and hasn't allowed more than three goals in any of his last five appearances, posting a 2.10 GAA and .929 save percentage over that stretch. The Canadiens continue to rotate three goalies, but that situation may not last much longer as trade rumors swirl around Jake Allen, and at least in terms of performance Montembeault is the only one of the three (Cayden Primeau being the third) making a strong case for a bigger workload. |

Montembeault turned aside 27 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Flames. - Montreal's offense gave him little support -- the one goal the Canadiens did manage to score banked in off Rasmus Andersson, and Montembeault had little chance on the game-winner, as Calgary rookie Connor Zary was allowed to park in front of the net for a tap-in goal. Montembeault has just one win in his last five appearances, going 1-2-1, but his 2.47 GAA and .914 save percentage over that stretch could soon have him moving past a struggling Jake Allen on the depth chart. |

Montembeault turned aside 26 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Bruins. - Boston poured on the pressure in the third period, firing half of the 28 shots Montembeault faced in that frame alone, but aside from a power-play tally by Brad Marchand on which he had little chance, the 27-year-old netminder was up to the task. Montembeault is 3-2-1 in his seven appearances to begin the season with a 2.88 GAA and .905 save percentage, and he could be nudging ahead of Jake Allen in the battle for playing time in the Montreal crease, having started two of the last four games while being needed in relief of Allen in a third. The Habs are back in action Sunday against the Canucks, but there's been no word yet on whether Allen or Cayden Primeau will get the start. |

Montembeault turned aside 22 of 23 shots Tuesday after replacing Jake Allen midway through the first period of a 5-3 loss to the Lightning. - The 27-year-old netminder's solid play gave Montreal a chance to rally, and the only puck to get past him came on a Tampa Bay power play late in the third period, when Nick Paul banged home the rebound after Montembeault had made a dazzling stop on a Nikita Kucherov one-timer. The Habs are back in action Thursday in Detroit, but with Allen struggling and Montembeault handling most of the work in this one, Martin St. Louis might elect to give No. 3 goalie Cayden Primeau a rare start. |

Montembeault stopped 33 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blue Jackets. - Columbus jumped out to 2-0 and 3-1 leads, but Montembeault shut the door down the stretch and gave his teammates a chance to mount a comeback. The netminder has two wins in his first three starts of 2023-24, but his .901 save percentage is right in line with last season's performance. Montreal has been rolling with a rough timeshare in net so far, but Jake Allen's superior play (.929 save percentage in his three outings) could begin to tip the balance in his favor if he can keep it up. |
None |

Montembeault will tend the twine for Thursday's home clash with the Blue Jackets. - Montembeault will make his third appearance in the crease this season, having registered a 1-1-0 record, 3.56 GAA and .892 save percentage in his prior two outings. With Jake Allen undefeated in regulation, it's a little surprising to see both Montembeault and Cayden Primeau getting starts in the Habs' last two contests. |
None |
| Oct. 18, 2023 |
Montembeault stopped 30 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Wild. - It was a tough night for the 26-year-old netminder. He gave up two short-handed goals 25 seconds apart in the first period on a pair of two-on-one counter-attacks by Minnesota, then the Wild's power play roared to life and scored three times over the final two frames. Montembeault is 1-1 and has an .892 save percentage through his first two starts of the season, and while Tuesday's can hardly be pinned on him, he might give way to Jake Allen for Montreal's next game Saturday against the Capitals. |

Montembeault will patrol the home crease during Tuesday's matchup with Minnesota, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports. - Montembeault was rock solid in his season debut Saturday versus Chicago, turning aside 28 of 30 shots en route to a 3-2 win. He'll try to secure a second straight victory in a home matchup with a Wild team that will be forced to play a man short (11 forwards, six defensemen) due to injuries to Matthew Boldy (upper body), Jared Spurgeon (upper body) and Alex Goligoski (lower body). |

Montembeault made 28 saves in a 3-2 win over Chicago on Saturday. - Tyler Johnson beat him twice in the third period.

Montembeault will defend the home crease versus the Blackhawks on Saturday, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports. - Montembeault was on the bench Wednesday as Jake Allen picked up the Opening Night start in a 6-5 shootout loss to the Maple Leafs.

Montembeault stopped 21 of 25 shots in Saturday's 6-4 preseason win over Ottawa. - It looked like Montembeault would take a loss after giving up three consecutive goals, including two in a span of 16 seconds in the third period, but the Canadiens save him with three goals later in the period. This was Montembeault's first full game played during the preseason. That it was Montreal's final tune-up before the regular season doesn't necessarily mean he'll be in the net Wednesday in Toronto. Neither he nor Jake Allen is a clear front-runner at this point. |

Montembeault made 16 saves in a 5-4 loss to the Bruins on Thursday. - Montembeault put up a brave season behind a pesky, but flawed Canadiens squad. It was the 28th time he had faced at least 30 shots (39 games played), and he was often their best player. With his strong season, Montembeault has earned a role with Team Canada at the upcoming World Championships. |

Montembeault will patrol the home crease during Thursday's matchup with the Capitals. - Montembeault was excellent in his last start Saturday versus the Hurricanes, stopping a whopping 47 of 50 shots, but he still came away with a loss due to a complete lack of goal support from his teammates.

Montembeault stopped 31 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Lightning. - The Canadiens were out-shot 33-20 on the night, but Montembeault was able to steal a win with some big saves. The 26-year-old has seen action in five straight games as Jake Allen continues to struggle, and while his .905 save percentage over that stretch isn't exceptional, it's good enough to earn him consistent work over the final weeks of the season. |
None |
| March 18, 2023 |
Montembeault made 36 saves in a 5-3 loss to the Lightning on Saturday. He allowed four goals. - His teammates played well through two periods, but they just couldn't hold back Steven Stamkos and Brandon Hagel in the third. Montembeault is 1-3-1 in his last six starts (22 goals allowed), and like a lot of Habs, he should be avoided in fantasy. Too much risk. |
None |
| March 17, 2023 |
Montembeault stopped 21 of 24 shots in a little less than two periods worth of action in Thursday's 9-5 loss to the Panthers. - The 26-year-old netminder got the start but lasted only about six minutes before getting the hook after surrendering three quick goals. Jake Allen then took over and coughed up six tallies in 21:29 of ice time, including Sam Reinhart's eventual game-winner, before Habs coach Martin St. Louis was forced to turn back to Montembeault. Montreal has surrendered 21 goals over its last three games, with both goalies seeing action in two of them, and neither one will be an appealing fantasy option until the team's defense tightens up. Through five appearances in March, Montembeault is 1-1-1 with a 3.50 GAA and .901 save percentage. |

It's Montembeault's first win since Feb. 21 as he improves to 13-13-3 with a .905 save percentage on the season. The 26-year-old netminder has looked good at times this season while splitting time with Jake Allen, though it's tough to rely on Monty behind a shaky Montreal defense. |
None |

Montembeault turned aside 30 shots in regulation and overtime and one of two shootout attempts in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers. - Montreal had three different one-goal leads through the first two periods, but Montembeault couldn't do much about New York's three tying tallies, two of which came on power plays. The 26-year-old netminder is 1-3-1 over his last five starts with a 3.77 GAA and .888 save percentage, and he's fallen firmly behind Jake Allen on the depth chart. |

Montembeault will get the starting nod at home versus the Rangers on Thursday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports. - Montembeault has been playing in roughly every third game as he splits the workload with veteran Jake Allen. In his last six contests, the 26-year-old Montembeault posted a 2-4-0 record and 3.85 GAA. At this point, with the team around him struggling, Montembeault will be hard-pressed to put together enough wins to be fantasy relevant. |

Montembeault made 31 saves Saturday in a 5-0 loss to Ottawa. He allowed four goals. - Montembeault kept his mates in the game most of the night, and the score was 3-0 and within reach until Mathieu Joseph banked in an empty-net shortie at 18:34. This loss wasn't on the 26-year-old -- he can't do everything. Montreal plays Ottawa at home Tuesday, and that start will likely go to Jake Allen. |

Montembeault turned aside 39 shots in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Predators. - The 26-year-old was the busier of the two netminders on the night and had little chance on any of the three pucks that beat him, but Montembeault still did enough to snap his three-game losing streak.

The Canucks have scored 17 goals in their last three games alone, so Montembeault has his work cut out for him. |

Montembeault saved 33 of 36 shots in a 3-2 overtime loss to Winnipeg on Thursday. - Montembeault dropped to 2-1-1 with a 2.47 GAA and .928 save percentage in four contests this season. He's been solid in the backup role in 2022-23, but Jake Allen is expected to get the bulk of the starts as long as he's healthy, which limits Montembeault's potential fantasy value. |

Montembeault will be in net Thursday on the road against Winnipeg. - Montembeault started in just three of Montreal's first 10 games, but he's made the most of his limited opportunities. He won his last two starts against Pittsburgh on Oct. 17 and Buffalo on Oct. 27 while stopping 69 of 73 shots. Winnipeg is tied for 23rd in the league offensively with just 2.89 goals per game, but they've been hot lately, posting a 3-0-1 record while scoring 14 goals over their last four games. |

Montembeault will get the road crease against Buffalo on Thursday, Marc Denis of RDS reports. - Montembeault returns to the crease after being the backup in the last three games. He is 1-1-0 as he defeated Pittsburgh in his last outing 3-2. The Sabres have been one of the biggest surprises in the early going as they have scored 23 goals in six games. |

Montembeault will start Monday at home against Pittsburgh, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports. - Montembeault surrendered three goals on 29 shots in a 3-1 loss to Washington on Saturday in his season debut. He will get a second straight start because Jake Allen (parental leave) is unavailable for Monday's contest. Montreal has brought up Cayden Primeau from the minors to serve as Montembeault's understudy. It will be a tough matchup against a Pittsburgh team that has scored a league-high 12 goals in two games this year. |

Montembeault will start Saturday's road game versus Washington. - Montenbeault will make his season debut after Jake Allen started the first two games of the year. This will be the second half of a back-to-back situation for the Canadiens following a 3-0 loss to Detroit on Friday. Montreal will face a Washington team that has gone 0-2-0 to begin the 2022-23 campaign. Montembeault posted a record of 8-18-6 last season with a 3.77 GAA and an .891 save percentage in 38 appearances. |

Montembeault (wrist) will patrol the blue paint in Wednesday's road clash with Toronto. - Montembeault played in a career-high 38 games last season in which he posted an 8-18-6 record with one shutout and a 3.77 GAA. The 25-year-old netminder was pressed into service with Jake Allen dealing with an injury but shouldn't be expected to see as many starts this year with Allen seemingly fit and ready to go. |

Montembeault underwent surgery on his wrist Friday. He's expected to be ready for training camp. - Montembeault made his final appearance of the season on April 24 and stopped 24 shots in a victory over the Rangers. The wrist injury was likely a lingering issue throughout the season but the 25-year-old should be ready to go for training camp in September.

Montembeault made 24 saves in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Rangers. - Taking on a Rangers team that was sitting out about 400 points' worth of production for rest purposes certainly made life easier for Montembeault, who ended Montreal's losing streak at nine games. Montembeault let the shell of a New York lineup erase three separate one-goal deficits, including two in the third period, but Jeff Petry put the Canadiens up for good by potting his second goal of the night with 31 seconds left. The 25-year-old goalie will finish with an 8-18-6 record unless he gets the nod for Friday's season finale against the Panthers. |

| April 24, 2022 |
Montembeault will start Sunday against the Bruins, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - Carey Price guarded the cage Saturday in Ottawa, so it will be Montembeault's turn Sunday at home. This could be Montembeault's final start of the season, as this marks the team's last back-to-back set. Following Sunday's match, Montreal is on the road Wednesday against the Rangers and finishes its season Friday at home against the Panthers. |

Montembeault will start Wednesday's game against Columbus, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - Montembeault will make his second consecutive start with Jake Allen (groin) on the shelf for the remainder of the season. Until Carey Price (knee) indicates he's ready to give it a go in net, Montembeault should see a lot of action from now until the end of the season. |
None |
| April 11, 2022 |
Montembeault will get the starting nod at home versus Winnipeg on Monday, John Lu of TSN.ca reports. - Montembeault is coming off a solid outing against the Maple Leafs on Saturday in which he allowed two goals on 25 shots. The 25-year-old netminder has made 33 appearances for the club this season in which he posted a 7-14-6 record along with a 3.61 GAA and one shutout. With Carey Price (knee) nearing a return, Montembeault could find himself relegated to the backup role once again soon. |

Montembeault will guard the cage Sunday against the Devils, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - After Jake Allen stopped a career-high 49 shots in Saturday's win over the Maple Leafs, Montembeault steps into the crease for Sunday's affair. If the Canadiens were still in playoff contention -- Montreal was eliminated Friday -- they might have went with Allen for a sixth consecutive start, but the Habs are going nowhere and he deserves the break. |

Montembeault allowed four goals on seven shots and was pulled after one period in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Coyotes. - Montembeault, who was making his fifth straight start, didn't have his A-game and it was known early.

Montembeault will start against visiting Arizona on Tuesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports. - Montembeault has fallen back to earth following a modest three-game winning streak, turning in an ugly 3.91 GAA and .872 save percentage over his last five starts.

Montembeault will be stationed between the pipes for Sunday's game in Philadelphia, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports. - Montembeault has lost three of his last four starts, coughing up 16 goals during that stretch. On the year, he's now 6-12-5 with an unsightly 3.63 GAA and .897 save percentage through 29 appearances. The 25-year-old owns a 4.06 GAA in 16 road outings. |

Per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports, Montembeault was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, indicating he'll get the start in goal in Saturday's home game versus Seattle. - Montrembeault wasn't great in his last start Wednesday versus Vancouver, surrendering four goals on 32 shots en route to a 5-3 defeat.

Montembeault will defend the cage Wednesday in Vancouver, per Marc-Andre Perreault of TVA Sports. - Montembeault has gone 4-4-0 with a 3.58 GAA and .886 save percentage over his last 10 appearances.

Vancouver also holds the 17th-ranked home power-play percentage at 22.1. |

Montembeault will start Saturday's road game against Edmonton, Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette reports. - The Canadiens placed Andrew Hammond (lower body) on injured reserve, so it was widely assumed Montembeault would guard the cage against the Oilers. His previous performance was an utterly forgettable outing in an 8-4 loss to the Jets. Montreal called up Cayden Primeau for the final two games of the team's road trip, which ends Wednesday in Vancouver. |

Montembeault made 16 saves on 23 shots before being pulled in a 8-4 loss to the Jets on Tuesday. - Montembeault had actually won three in a row heading into this matchup, but power play success and a strong Jets offense were too much to overcome. The netminder has gone 3-3-0 over his last seven appearances, with a 2.87 GAA and .910 save percentage. |

Montembeault is dealing with a sore wrist, though it's unknown if it will prevent him from starting Wednesday against Buffalo, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - It's unclear how or when Montembeault's wrist started to bother him, but the goalie backstopped Montreal's 5-2 win Monday with a 35-save performance. He's the likely starter Wednesday if the wrist is not a problem, but if he can't go, Andrew Hammond is in line for a second start since joining the Canadiens last week. |

Montembeault will start Monday's home game against Toronto, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - Montembeault will guard the cage in the second game of a back-to-back set after Andrew Hammond backstopped Sunday's shootout win over the Islanders. Montembeault, who was the winner in overtime Thursday against the Blues, seeks his second straight victory. While he's nominally the team's No. 1 goalie, Montembeault's hold on that role is tenuous at best. |
None |

Montembeault will patrol the crease during Thursday's home game versus the Blues, Luc Gelinas of RDS reports. - Montembeault struggled in his last start Sunday against the Sabres, surrendering five goals on 32 shots en route to a 5-3 defeat. He'll try to snap his personal five-game losing streak that dates back to Jan. 20 in a home matchup with a St. Louis squad that's averaging 3.14 goals per game on the road this year, 12th in the NHL. |

| Feb. 13, 2022 |
Montembeault will patrol the crease Sunday against visiting Buffalo. - Montembeault has gone 1-5-3 with a 3.97 GAA and .896 save percentage over his last 13 performances. The 25-year-old stopped 35 of 39 shots in a 4-1 loss to Buffalo on Nov. 26. The Sabres have struggled on the road this season, posting a 7-12-4 record while earning bottom-10 averages of 27.9 shots on goal and 2.35 goals for. |

Montembeault will defend the cage Saturday against visiting Columbus, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports. - Montembeault has posted a 2-8-4 record with a 3.96 GAA and .892 save percentage over 20 games this season. The 25-year-old was pulled from his last meeting with Columbus on Jan. 30 after allowing three goals on seven shots. On the road this season, the Blue Jackets have gone 10-12-0 while averaging 29.9 shots on goal and 3.09 goals for, ranking 18th and 13th, respectively. |
None |

Montembeault stopped all eight shots he faced in relief of Cayden Primeau in Thursday's 5-2 loss to Washington. - Montembeault was pulled from his last start Jan. 30 and replaced by Primeau, but they switched places in this one, as Primeau got the hook after giving up four goals in the first 25:18. Primeau allowed seven goals in Montreal's previous game Tuesday, so Montembeault will likely start Saturday against the Blue Jackets. He held the fort in this one but Montreal couldn't dig out of the early hole and Washington added an empty-netter down the stretch. |
None |
| Jan. 30, 2022 |
Montembeault will get the starting nod for Sunday's home tilt with the Blue Jackets. - Montembeault was chased by the Oilers after allowing six goals on 16 shots in Saturday's loss. He's now sporting an unsightly 3.95 GAA and .895 save percentage through 18 NHL games this season. The 25-year-old is 1-2-0 with an .865 save percentage at home. |

Montembeault will guard the home goal during Saturday's matchup with the Oilers, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports. - Montembeault played pretty well in his last start Jan. 20 versus Vegas, stopping 49 of 53 shots, but he ultimately came away with his 11th loss of the year due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. The 25-year-old goaltender will try to secure his third win of the year in a home matchup with a surging Oilers team that's won three straight games. |

Montembeault will have an MRI on Wednesday to determine the severity of his wrist injury, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports report - Montembeault has missed the last two contests while dealing with his wrist problem. Prior to his absence, Montembeault was serving as the primary option between the pipes for the Habs due to an injury to Jake Allen (lower body). With the 25-year-old Montembeault on the shelf, the team will likely continue to utilize Cayden Primeau and Michael McNiven in a split crease situation. |
None |

Montembeault will not start Monday against Minnesota due to an upper-body injury he suffered during last Thursday's overtime loss to the Golden Knights, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - The injury doesn't sound serious, but head coach Dominique Ducharme wants to give him some extra rest. That decision was made easier by the stellar play of backup Cayden Primeau in Saturday's loss to Colorado. Primeau will make a second consecutive start Monday. |
None |

Montembeault surrendered four goals on 53 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Golden Knights. - For the second straight game, Montembeault saw more than 50 shots. He wasn't able to replicate his success from Tuesday in Dallas, but it was still a solid outing for the 25-year-old. Montembeault is now 2-6-4 with a 3.73 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 16 contests. He's set to see time as the Canadiens' No. 1 goalie going forward, as Jake Allen (lower body) will be out a minimum of eight weeks and Carey Price (knee) continues to make slow progress in his recovery. Montembeault could help in fantasy when he draws a good matchup, but he's probably little more than a streaming option given the trajectory of the Canadiens' season. |
None |
| Jan. 18, 2022 |
Montembeault stopped all six shots faced during the third period of Monday's 5-2 loss to Arizona. - Montreal head coach Dominique Ducharme pulled starter Cayden Primeau after two periods and four goals on 16 shots. The coach indicated it was more about changing momentum than the play of Primeau, whose mates contributed to Arizona's scoring chances. Montembeault is expected to start Tuesday night in Dallas. |
None |
| Jan. 17, 2022 |
Montembeault will start Monday in Arizona or Tuesday in Dallas, Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette reports. - Montreal head coach Dominique Ducharme confirmed following Sunday's practice that Montembeault and Cayden Primeau will split the starts in a back-to-back set to open the week, but he would not divulge which goalie would start Monday. Montembeault has started four of the last five games and appeared in the fifth after Jake Allen (lower body) was removed from last Wednesday's loss to Boston. It's been a tough season for Montembeault, who possesses a 1-6-3 record with a 3.89 GAA and .895 save percentage. |
None |
| Jan. 13, 2022 |
Montembeault allowed three goals on 31 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Blackhawks. - Montembeault couldn't make a 2-1 lead stick in the third period, and he went on to lose after Philipp Kurashev scored while crashing the net. The loss was Montembeault's fourth in his last five appearances (0-2-2). The 25-year-old is down to a 1-6-3 record with a 3.89 GAA and an .895 save percentage. Jake Allen (lower body) is set to miss at least a week, but fantasy managers probably shouldn't rely on Montembeault outside the most favorable matchups, like Monday's game versus the Coyotes. |
None |

Montembeault stopped 31 shots on 34 attempts in a 5-1 loss to the Bruins on Wednesday. - Montembeault came on in relief of starter Jake Allen after Allen allowed a pair of goals in the first period and left with an injury. The 25-year-old netminder came out of COVID-19 protocols on Jan. 9, though the Canadiens did not play any games during his absence. Montembeault is winless over his last four appearances for the hapless Habs. |

Montembeault cleared COVID-19 protocols and was on the ice for practice Sunday, Arpon Basu of The Athletic reports. - The Canadiens didn't play any games during Montembeault's five-day absence.

Montembeault entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Tuesday. - Montembeault has posted a 1-4-2 record with a 3.95 GAA and a .898 save percentage since the end of October. The Quebec-born netminder has allowed 14 goals over his last three starts and taken the loss home each time. Due to the abundance of injury and illness plighting the Habs, their next game is scheduled for Jan 12. in Boston. |
None |

Montembeault will start Saturday against the Panthers, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - Montembeault continues to the hold down the crease for the Canadiens, who are without Jake Allen and Cayden Primeau due to COVID-19 protocols. Montembeault started the first two games since Montreal's season resumed, giving up nine goals in losses to Tampa Bay and Carolina. The goalie has given up at least three goals in each of his eight starts. Montembeault has a 1-5-2 record with a 3.84 goals-against average and .892 save percentage. |
None |
| Dec. 30, 2021 |
Montembault made 34 saves in a 4-0 loss to the Hurricanes on Thursday. - The Habs were on their heels all night -- all four goals were surrendered on specials teams, including one while shorthanded. It was Montembault's second straight start. We recommend avoiding him unless you have no other options. The Habs have looked rusty after having four games PPD. |
None |
| Dec. 28, 2021 |
Montembeault allowed five goals on 37 shots in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Lightning. - Montembeault was in position to notch a win in the NHL's first game after a week off, but Corey Perry foiled those plans by scoring the game-tying goal with 20 seconds left in regulation. Ondrej Palat then beat Montembeault for the game-winner just 36 seconds into overtime. With the Canadiens languishing at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings and Montembeault carrying a personal 1-4-2 record and sub-.900 save percentage, he's not an advisable fantasy option. |
None |

Montembeault will start Friday's game in Buffalo, Marc Antoine Godin of The Athletique Montreal reports. - Montembeault got a nice confidence boost by picking up his first win of the season at home in his last start against Nashville. He'll have a nice opportunity to build on that result against a Buffalo team that's won only twice in its last 12 games, though Montembeault's 3.58 GAA and .897 save percentage this season make him far from a fantasy lineup lock despite the favorable matchup. |
None |

Montembeault will defend the blue paint during Saturday's home game versus Nashville, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports. - Montembeault was solid in his last start Sunday against the Bruins, stopping 36 of 40 shots, but he ultimately came away with a loss due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. The 25-year-old netminder will attempt to secure his first win of the year in a home matchup with a Predators team that's averaging 2.89 goals per game on the road this season, 10th in the NHL. |

Montembeault replaced starter Cayden Primeau and stopped 11 of 12 shots in the third period of Thursday's 6-0 loss to Pittsburgh. - Montembeault was good in relief, allowing the one goal with 11 seconds left in the game. He's been at his best when coming in after a starter gets shelled or injured. When replacing a starter, Montembeault has stopped 43 of 47 shots (.914 save percentage). Thursday's effort raised his season save percentage to .892. The Canadiens will have to roll with him and Primeau for the time being, but Jake Allen (concussion) skated Thursday and could return in the coming days. |
None |
| Nov. 14, 2021 |
Montembeault will start Sunday in Boston. - Montembeault fell in overtime Saturday to the Red Wings after allowing three goals on 25 shots in relief of Jake Allen (undisclosed). Allen is day-to-day and will not suit up Sunday, so Montembeault will be forced to play on back-to-back days. The Bruins currently sit 17th in the NHL with 2.92 goals for per game. |
None |
| Nov. 13, 2021 |
Montembault stopped 22 of 25 shots in a 3-2 overtime loss to Detroit. - He was forced into the game in the first period when Jake Allen was forced into concussion protocol after a hard hit by Dylan Larkin of the Wings, who was hit into Allen by Jeff Petry of the Habs. There is no word on Allen's condition, and with Carey Price still sidelined, Montembault could be pressed into starting duty. Avoid him -- he hasn't recorded a save percentage above .894 in any of the three part-seasons he's played. |
None |

Montembeault made 10 saves in the third period Thursday in a 6-2 loss to the Islanders. He replaced starter Jake Allen to start the third period and was perfect in his appearance. - Montembeault's time in the NHL is limited because Carey Price is due back as soon as this weekend. He remains without a win this season and last notched a win on Feb. 11, 2020. That stretch seems destined to continue. |
