INJURIES

Hands out assist in loss Veleno notched an assist and five hits in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Flyers.
Impact Veleno has been in and out of the lineup frequently this season. His helper ended a 21-game point drought dating back to his assist in a Jan. 8 game versus the Panthers. He ends the regular season with five points, 52 shots on net, 166 hits, 32 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating over 61 appearances. Veleno will likely continue to be a part-time option in the postseason.

Set to play Thursday Veleno (illness) is set to play Thursday against Tampa Bay, per J-F Chaumont of NHL.com.
Impact Veleno has two goals, four points, 17 PIM and 149 hits in 58 outings with Montreal in 2025-26. After missing Tuesday's game against Florida, Veleno is projected to serve on the fourth line alongside Jake Evans and Josh Anderson.

Not available Tuesday Veleno (illness) won't play Tuesday versus the Panthers, Marc Antoine Godin of Radio Canada reports.
Impact Veleno had played in nine of the last 10 games, exclusively in a bottom-six role. This is his second illness in as many months, but the 26-year-old should be back in the mix soon. He's day-to-day ahead of Thursday's game versus the Lightning.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Back at practice Veleno (illness) participated in Thursday's practice as an extra forward.
Impact Veleno appears ready to return to the lineup after missing Monday's practice, but that doesn't mean he will play against Anaheim on Friday. He also sat out Tuesday's 7-5 loss to San Jose, but it's unclear if he was available for that contest because he was a healthy scratch for two straight outings before the matchup. Veleno has two goals, four points, 45 shots on net and 119 hits in 49 appearances this season.
MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE
Remains unavailable Veleno (illness) will not be in the lineup against the Sharks on Tuesday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Veleno has been a healthy scratch in five of the Habs' last eight outings, so it's not immediately clear if he is still under the weather or if he is just being left out of the lineup. Even when he does play, the forward hasn't offered much in the way of fantasy value, considering he has zero goals and one assist in his last 22 outings
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
Absent from practice Veleno (illness) didn't participate in Monday's practice, per Eric Engels of Sportsnet.
Impact Veleno has been a healthy scratch in five of the last eight games. Even if he's healthy, he may not play against the Sharks on Tuesday. Veleno has earned two goals, four points, 45 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and 119 hits across 49 appearances this season.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
Loses place in lineup Veleno was a healthy scratch for the third straight game in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Avalanche.
Impact Jake Evans and Alexandre Texier recently returned from injuries, leaving no room for Veleno in the lineup. Over 46 outings this season, Veleno has just four points with 44 shots on net, 111 hits and 15 PIM. Even if he draws back in, he'll be limited to bottom-six usage.

For Canadiens' Joe Veleno, revenge is best served on cold Chicago ice After being dealt away from Blackhawks during the summer, Habs forward aims to "show them what they missed out on."

Scores in Sunday's win Veleno scored a goal and added five hits in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Oilers.
Impact Veleno got on the scoresheet for the second game in a row. That follows a stretch of 10 games without a point. The 25-year-old forward will likely remain limited in his scoring potential in a bottom-six role -- he's most often been on the fourth line this year. He's at three points, 24 shots on net, 63 hits, 18 blocked shots, 13 PIM and a minus-9 rating over 27 appearances so far.

Pockets helper in overtime loss Veleno logged an assist and four blocked shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers.
Impact Veleno saw 15:51 of ice time in this contest, his second-highest total of the season. The 25-year-old also landed on a line with defensive ace Jake Evans, which could lead to more ice time if that duo, plus Brendan Gallagher, stays together. Veleno is not a fantasy option in most formats -- he has just two points with 23 shots on net, 58 hits and a minus-10 rating over 26 outings.

Joe Veleno's role with Canadiens comes into sharper focus Tied for team lead with 48 hits and has gained Martin St. Louis's confidence with defensive play, penalty-kill effort and faceoff work.
DECEMBER 5, 2025 • MONTREALGAZETTE.COM
Gets first goal, point of season Veleno scored a goal on four shots, blocked three shots and added two hits in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Capitals.
Impact The goal was Veleno's first point with the Canadiens. The Montreal native has gone from healthy scratch to potentially a middle-six role as the Canadiens try to navigate without Kirby Dach (foot), Alex Newhook (ankle) and Jake Evans (undisclosed). Veleno has added 14 shots on net, 30 hits, 10 blocked shots, 13 PIM and a minus-8 rating over 15 appearances, but his offense should improve if he can earn an uptick in ice time -- he skated 17:00 in Thursday's contest after Evans' early exit.
