Canadian’s end -of -season bulletin | The Honorary Table

Nick Suzuki

The ultimate player of this 2024-2025 season. Thanks to a second after 30 goals and a personal summit of 89 points, he discreetly established himself as the most prolific attacker of the 2000s in the Canadian. He also consolidated his defensive game, as evidenced in particular by his differential of +19. It is the first time in his career that he has presented a positive assessment in this chapter.

Samuel Montembeault

It was his first “real” season as a number one number one goalkeeper, and he lived up to his status. Only two of his peers have played more minutes than him throughout the league, and he was part of the circuit elite in terms of goals avoided (30.79 in total, according to the Evolving Hockey site). Its constant progression since its arrival in Montreal has reflected through its average of allocated goals: from 3.77 in 2021-2022, it is at 2.82. An essentially a goal per game.

Lane Hutson

The recruit of the year in the NHL, whether or not he wins the Calder trophy. The doubts about its potential were dissipated after about 25 seconds of training camp. In his first professional season, the young man rose not only as a must in the Canadian, but also outright among the best offensive defenders on the circuit. Even if it remains vulnerable against high -level attackers, his defensive game has improved during the season. Supporters of CH are right to get carried away on it.

Cole Caufield

He is technically not yet a marker of 40 goals, but it would be difficult to blame him, especially when we see the way in which his overall game has improved. In the shadow of his 37 own goals – a new personal summit – and 89 Nick Suzuki points, he only became the fifth player of the Canadian in 25 years to raise 70 points in one season. All its decision -making also seems to have progressed, in its area as in opposing territory. As proof, he scored 9 more goals than the previous season by unchecking 74 less shots.
