Meanwhile, Montreal Canadiens are focused on filling their critical second-line center void, realizing Kirby Dach’s role is better suited for the bottom-six. Despite playoff losses to Carolina and lacking a true No. 2 center, the young Canadiens gained invaluable experience — including multiple Game 7s — and are expected to “run it back” this season, letting their roster grow and evolve naturally as they continue developing stars like Jacob Dobes.
