Montembeault played his 200th NHL game last night and is hitting his prime.
Solid goalie.
He has come a long way.

He's been so damn clutch!Without Monty, there's no playoffs! Give Monty's his credits. Stop disrespecting Monty.
And a 4 Nations Champions! Since February 2025!He's been so damn clutch!
I think he has only 2 regulation losses since early February and some look for any reason to pounce on him. It's completely asinine!
Montreal fans don’t understand what having a mere mortal as #1 goaltender. Yeah he’s not Price, but he has a better team in front of him. He’s good enough for this team right now.he’s gotten better and better as the season has gone on. Kudos.
I didn’t want to go down this path, but I fully agree.Montreal fans don’t understand what having a mere mortal as #1 goaltender. Yeah he’s not Price, but he has a better team in front of him. He’s good enough for this team right now.
Yeah that's how I feel, I will forever STFU regarding Sam, he's a great guy trying his best to help this team.Haters just dont watch hockey. Hes a mid range starter in the NHL. People are used to Price, theres no Price in the NHL right now.
I have wrote this too many times to remember ; A mid-range goalie , or a ‘good enough’ goalie on a hot streak is all you need to win a cup. What you really need is elite talent upfront , solid physical defensemen and great leadership from veterans.Haters just dont watch hockey. Hes a mid range starter in the NHL.

It wasn’t just a Price thing; Monty has yet to play at the Level of Theodore’s peak or Halak’s.I have wrote this too many times to remember ; A mid-range goalie , or a ‘good enough’ goalie on a hot streak is all you need to win a cup.

This organisation was so blinded and in love with Price’s elite talent, they thought they forgot to build a solid foundation around him.
On our 2021 Stanley cup run, we had a hot goalie, great physical D, great leadership,but lacked elite talent upfront.
Fortunately, things have changed with the new management; they are smart enough to know you dont build a team with a goalie as your franchise player.
