Canadiens' Jacob Fowler: Sent down to minors
Fowler was reassigned to AHL Laval on Friday
The Habs have been carrying three goalies for a while, so it's not a huge surprise they decide to return Fowler to the minors. Still, his stint with the Rocket could be short-lived. Assuming he plays for the minor-league club against AHL Manitoba on Friday or Saturday, he could be recalled ahead of Tuesday's clash with Minnesota.

Canadiens' Owen Beck: Returned to Laval
Beck was reassigned to AHL Laval on Friday.
Beck had one goal and 24 hits in 15 games with the Canadiens this season. The center was a healthy scratch the last two games and at the tender age of 21, Beck needs the playing time he will get at the AHL level.

Canadiens' Lane Hutson: Supplies two power-play helpers
Hutson notched two power-play assists, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Sabres.
Hutson's first helper was the 100th of his career, a milestone that took him just 132 games to reach. The defenseman continues to be big on offense in January with three goals and six assists over nine games this month. For the season, Hutson is at eight goals, 47 points (13 on the power play), 78 shots on net, 79 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating through 48 appearances.

Canadiens' Jacob Fowler: Named to AHL All-Star Game
Fowler made 22 saves Thursday in a 5-3 loss to Buffalo.
Fowler is 1-3-1 n his last five games with 14 goals allowed. Overall, he's 4-4-2 with a 2.62 GAA and .902 save percentage. Earlier Thursday, Fowler was named to the AHL All-Star Game. His last game with the Rocket dates back to Dec. 6. That's an incredible feat considering he's been in the NHL for five weeks. And interestingly enough, Fowler will be able to attend the AHL All-Star Classic on Feb. 10 and 11 because it's happening during the Olympic break.

Canadiens' Ivan Demidov: NHL's top rookie scorer
Demidov scored a power-play goal Thursday in a 5-3 loss to Buffalo.
Demidov's goal came on a two-man advantage in the first period. It was his first goal in 10 games (seven assists). He remains the top rookie scorer in the NHL with 40 points. Demidov is the top rookie playmaker (29 assists), and he's tied with the Bruins' Fraser Minten for fourth in goals (11).

Canadiens' Cole Caufield: Two-point night in loss
Caufield had a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Sabres. He fired five shots.
Caufeld has 22 goals and 45 points (140 shots) in 48 games this season. But 12 of those goals (six assists) came in his first 15 games. That means that the sniper has just 10 goals in the next 33 games, and he hasn't had a multi-goal game since Nov. 8. At some point, Caufield is bound to explode with goals, although 33 games is a long time.

Canadiens' Nick Suzuki: Among league's best power-play men
Suzuki had a goal and an assist in a 5-3 loss to Buffalo on Thursday.
Both points came on the power play, a place where he has tallied 25 of his 52 points, including nine goals. Suzuki excels at both ends of the ice, wears the C and puts up a lot of points. That makes him regular candidate for the Selke Trophy. Suzuki is in a three-way tie with Wyatt Johnston of the Stars and Kirill Kaprizov of the Wild for 13th overall in league scoring with 52 points (48 games). But more impressively, he's fourth overall in the NHL in power-play production with 25 points behind Connor McDavid (36), Leon Draisaitl (31) and Mikko Rantanen (26).

Canadiens' Jacob Fowler: In goal Thursday
Fowler will get the starting nod on the road against the Sabres on Thursday.
Fowler has featured in three of the Habs' last seven outings while the team continues to carry three netminders on the roster. In those appearances, the 21-year-old Fowler went 1-2-0 with a 2.08 GAA but won't offer much in terms of fantasy value moving forward if he can't secure more of the workload.

Canadiens' Brendan Gallagher: Finds twine Tuesday
Gallagher scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Capitals.
Josh Anderson returned from an upper-body injury, leading to Gallagher logging a season-low 8:43 of ice time. Gallagher has three points over eight outings in January despite playing in a bottom-six role. For the season, he's at four goals, 15 points, 81 shots on net, 50 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 47 appearances.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Tallies shortie in return
Anderson scored a shorthanded goal on two shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Capitals.
Anderson missed the previous six games due to an upper-body injury. His goal Tuesday opened the scoring at 8:14 of the first period. The 31-year-old winger has 14 points (10 goals, four assists) over 41 contests, and he's earned three of those points while shorthanded. He's also accumulated 54 shots on net, 38 PIM, 76 hits and 28 blocked shots while mostly playing on the third line.

Canadiens' Alexandre Texier: Secures two-year extension
Texier signed a two-year, $5 million contract extension with the Canadiens on Wednesday, PuckPedia reports.
While Texier got off to a slow start as he struggled to carve out a consistent role with the Canadiens, he has flourished over the past month in a spot on the top line next to Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki. Over Texier's last eight games, he has four multi-point performances, including back-to-back three-point games Jan. 7 and 8. Overall, the 26-year-old forward has seven goals, 10 assists, 50 shots on net and 32 hits across 33 appearances this season. He'll likely continue to play big minutes for the Canadiens during the team's push for a playoff spot in the competitive Atlantic Division.

Canadiens' Sam Montembeault: Fades late in OT loss
Montembeault made 39 saves in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Capitals.
The Canadiens were outshot 42-26 on the night, and while Montembeault took a 2-0 lead into the third period, he eventually crumbled under the barrage. The 29-year-old netminder has started four of Montreal's last nine games, going 3-0-1 with a 2.40 GAA and a .921 save percentage as he makes a push to regain the top spot in the crease.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Good to go
Anderson (upper body) will return to the lineup against Washington on Tuesday, per Patrick Friolet of RDS.
Following a six-game absence, Anderson will occupy a third-line role against the Capitals on Tuesday. He has supplied nine goals, 13 points, 52 shots on net, 74 hits and 38 PIM across 40 appearances this season. With Anderson good to go, Owen Beck will be a healthy scratch.

Canadiens' Alexandre Texier: Contributes two helpers
Texier notched two assists and two shots on goal in Monday's 6-3 win over the Canucks.
Texier now has four multi-point efforts over seven games in January, earning four goals and six assists so far this month. The 26-year-old is clearly benefiting from his even-strength role alongside Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield, as well as a spot on the top power-play unit. Texier is up to a total of 17 points, 48 shots on net, 30 hits and a plus-7 rating over 32 appearances between the Canadiens and the Blues this season, but 16 of those points have come since he joined Montreal.

Canadiens' Nick Suzuki: Earns pair of assists
Suzuki notched two assists, including one on the power play, and went plus-2 in Monday's 6-3 win over the Canucks.
Suzuki is in a six-game goal drought, matching his longest of the season, but he's still earned five helpers in that span. The 26-year-old center has only one stretch of two contests without a point all season, providing steady offense in a top-line spot. He's earned 50 points (23 on the power play), 99 shots on net, 40 blocked shots, 35 hits and a plus-18 rating over 46 appearances.

Canadiens' Mike Matheson: Scores go-ahead goal
Matheson scored a goal on two shots, added two hits, blocked two shots and went plus-3 in Monday's 6-3 win over the Canucks.
Matheson's tally 29 seconds into the third period put the Canadiens ahead for good. The defenseman has three points over his last three games, and he's up to five goals, 16 helpers, 58 shots on net, 95 blocks, 29 hits and a plus-9 rating through 43 appearances this season. Matheson doesn't have the same scoring pop as Lane Hutson or Noah Dobson, but he's still productive enough to help in fantasy.

Canadiens' Oliver Kapanen: Tallies again Monday
Kapanen scored a goal on five shots and went plus-2 in Monday's 6-3 win over the Canucks.
Kapanen has been excellent to start January with five goals and two assists over seven games this month. The 22-year-old center has firmly taken control of a second-line role this season, playing a steady all-around game. He's at 16 goals (most among rookies) and 11 assists while adding 85 shots on net, 46 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 46 outings overall.
