Canadiens Want to Shake Things Up, but What Trade’s Smart?
Stu Cowan’s interview on the FAN Hockey Show gave us a lot to chew on about the Montréal Canadiens. There’s a lot going on with this team—prospects, veterans, injuries—and the question of what they need and what they’re willing to do ahead of the trade deadline came up more than once.

Alexandre Texier and Patrik Laine will not return to play tonight

Zachary Bolduc News / Dose.ca / January 22
'Why not?': The idea of removing Zachary Bolduc from the lineup is causing a stir
Recently, I’ve been wondering if it’s time to think about sending Zachary Bolduc to the AHL. I’m not one of those people who thinks he should be traded, but I am one of those people who doesn’t see how going to the AHL to dominate for a bit could hurt him in the long run.

What Is the Canadiens’ Plan for Patrik Laine?

Jonathan Toews: JiC wonders if he’s the missing piece in Montreal

Jake Evans: There’s some internal competition brewing (and that’s a good thing)

Michael Hage News / Dose.ca / January 21
