The Montreal Canadiens have signed defenseman Owen Protz to a three-year entry-level contract — but what kind of player are they really getting?

Shaun Starr and Marco D’Amico break down Protz’s profile as a physical, shutdown-style defenseman, what sets him apart in the Habs prospect pool, and why his game fills a need in the organization.

We also dive into when his contract officially begins, what his pro timeline looks like, and whether he’s destined for Laval or could climb the depth chart faster than expected.

The Montreal Canadiens came back in a big way at the Bell Centre, rallying from a 2-0 deficit to beat the Carolina Hurricanes 5-2.

After a slow start that saw Carolina jump out early with goals from Nikolaj Ehlers and Jordan Staal, the Canadiens flipped the script. Montreal responded with five unanswered goals, led by Cole Caufield and Juraj Slafkovsky, who sparked the comeback in the second period. 

Rookie Oliver Kapanen got the Habs on the board, while Ivan Demidov added a clutch third-period goal, and Jake Evans sealed it with an empty-netter. Goaltender Jakub Dobes was outstanding, turning aside 41 shots and giving Montreal a chance to claw back into the game. 

That was Montreal’s 24th comeback win of the season, tying a franchise record and continuing their strong push late in the year. 

On today’s show, Shaun Starr and Marco D’Amico break down:

The Canadiens’ resilience and comeback ability
Cole Caufield’s red-hot scoring pace
Ivan Demidov’s continued impact
Jakub Dobes stepping up in a big spot
What this win means for the Habs playoff push

The Montreal Canadiens have a new top priority — getting Ivan Demidov under contract.

In this episode, Shaun Starr and Marco D’Amico break down why Demidov is the next major piece of business for Kent Hughes and the Habs front office. After a dominant season, how does Demidov’s production stack up against Lane Hutson’s Calder-worthy rookie campaign from last year?

We dive into:

Demidov’s season and trajectory
How his numbers compare to Lane Hutson’s breakout year
What kind of contract Demidov could command
NHL comparables for young elite forwards signing their second deals
Key timelines and important dates for the Canadiens to get a deal done

Will Demidov follow the same path as Hutson, or are we looking at a completely different type of contract and negotiation?

This is a crucial moment in the Canadiens rebuild — and locking up Demidov could shape the future of this team.
