The Montreal Canadiens are looking to compete, and are doing it at the right time in their division.

The Montreal Canadiens last won the Atlantic Division in 2017. Since then, the Boston Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning have taken over and dominated the division standings. For three consecutive seasons the top two seeds in the Atlantic Division went to the Lightning and Bruins.

The Canadiens are looking to change that next season.

The biggest component of the Habs having any success in the past decade and into next season will be their goaltender Carey Price.
