The Montreal Canadiens are not out of any game they play. Down 2-0 in Florida with under five minutes to go, the Canadiens found a way to grab both points.

Ian Boisvert and Laura Saba break down yet another incredible late comeback by the Habs. This time, it was captain Nick Suzuki leading the way with the tying goal and the overtime winner. Plus, we got to see Brad Marchand completely blow it for his team on a selfish, stupid hit. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Plus Sam Montembeault was strong in his return. What does that do for the Habs goaltending situation in the short and long term? And finally, with 2025 coming to a close, we reflect on the year that was for the Canadiens and what they have ahead of themselves in 2026.
