MONTREAL — Nick Suzuki is tired of watching talented teammates pack their bags and move on to Stanley Cup contenders every spring.
After three seasons of missing the playoffs and stockpiling draft picks, Montreal's captain hopes the Canadiens' rebuild — fittingly the subject of a docuseries released this fall — is finally behind them.

I know the players in that room feel really confident about their team." “Dodged a bullet,” Laine told reporters in Mont-Tremblant, Que. “Could’ve been much worse. I’m not happy with the injury, but it is what it is and just try to stay positive. We’ll be back.”
Then there’s rookie defenceman Lane Huston, a potential Calder Trophy candidate as NHL rookie of the year who lifts Canadiens fans out of their seats with his jaw-dropping skill.
