Nikita Kucherov explains why he asked to be traded

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

Nikita Kucherov wants to leave Tampa Bay. We had a hunch that something was off—and that it wasn’t just because he didn’t want to live in Tampa Bay anymore or because the Lightning aren’t as good as they used to be. Tampa Bay isn’t Columbus, after all… We suspected it had something to do with […]


Nikita Kucherov: Jake Guentzel Changed Everything

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

The Tampa Bay Lightning are known for wanting to handle their matters internally. The fact that Julien BriseBois publicly stated that he wasn’t going to trade Nikita Kucherov means that, yes, the situation is still quite significant. Obviously, you might say. It’s THE hot topic right now. There are plenty of angles to explore regarding […]


Martin St-Louis: “A four-year contract extension would make sense”

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

The Laval Rocket recently announced its coaching staff. Basically, aside from the fact that Daniel Jacob is becoming head coach and David Urquhart is taking his place as an assistant, the staff remains the same as it was at the end of last season. Ilia Ejov will therefore remain as goaltending coach. Our coaching staff […]


Sergei Bobrovsky: The Panthers Didn’t Want to Give Him a No-Trade Clause

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

This summer, the Florida Panthers lost Sergei Bobrovsky. Since the new Maple Leafs player (who joined the team a few weeks ago) wasn’t traded by Florida by the 2026 deadline, this tells us one thing: the Panthers were hoping to keep him this summer. But that didn’t happen. While it was thought that money was […]


Cole Hutson says that his brother Lane can’t stop talking about Ivan Demidov

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

Everyone agrees that the duo of Ivan Demidov and Lane Hutson will be the driving force behind the Canadiens for many years to come. Together, these guys will terrorize opposing defenses on the power play. And in an ideal scenario, they’ll be able—along with the rest of the core group—to bring the Stanley Cup back […]


Phillip Danault supports the Canadiens’ management’s inaction

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

Hockey players are well-oiled PR machines. Most of the time, anyway. Take Zachary Bolduc, for example. Every time he’s been asked about his contract situation over the past two months, he’s replied that he wasn’t worried and that a deal was on the way. And yesterday, as reported by RDS at the Pro-Am in Quebec […]


Controversy: Zachary Bolduc Doesn’t Want to Be Associated with “Crazy” Lewis

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

Have you heard the story of Medusa? Julien Duguay, an influencer who is also known as Medusa, organized a StreamerFest in Florida with content creators from Quebec. The idea looked good on paper, but it ended badly. During a stream (i.e., live), Medusa made derogatory remarks about women and consent. Among those on the boat […]


I hear that Ivan Demidov is faster than he used to be

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

This morning, our colleague Marc-Olivier Cook went to check out Brossard. There were still quite a few Canadiens players there. And with guys like Josh Anderson and David Reinbacher in town, you can tell that training camp is getting closer. Brendan Gallagher and some defensemen from Concordia University were also there. Back in Brossard this […]


CH’s Target: Zach Whitecloud and the Flames’ Plans for Him

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

For the past few months, Zach Whitecloud’s name has been circulating on the market. That’s only natural, after all: he’s a defenseman who brings grit to an organization. He’s also a veteran who can stabilize a blue line. And at $2.75 million per season for two more years, he fits right in with just about […]


Jacob Fowler in Laval: The Scenario That’s Gaining Ground

Charles-Alexis Brisebois

A month and a half ago, people were saying that the window to trade Samuel Montembeault was closing. After all, once July 1 passed, it would be harder to trade him. Of course, it’s not too late to trade him. But… But it’s clear that right now, there’s a distinct scenario on the table in […]
