Gleb Pugachyov - Mixed results in first post-draft year Pugachyov has earned four points over 10 games with Chaika Nizhny Novgorod in the MHL, Russia's junior league, this season.

Impact Pugachyov's offense in the junior ranks is a bit disappointing considering the Canadiens took him 26th overall in the 2026 NHL Entry Draft. That said, he wasn't drafted solely for offense -- his physical play is his calling card. Even with the limited offense, he's made a pair of appearances for Torpedo in the KHL. If his scoring improves over time, Pugachyov could be an effective power forward in a few years, but there's a chance his fantasy ceiling is as a banger-league contributor.

Alexander Zharovsky - Trending up in KHL Zharovsky has earned 10 points over his last nine games for the KHL's Salavat Yulaev Ufa.

Impact Zharovsky had a modest start to the season, but he's turned up the offense. He's now at 18 points (six goals, 12 assists) through 23 contests on the year. It's still a ways off, but the Canadiens prospect may be able to skip the AHL once he comes to North America, given his success in the KHL over the last two seasons.

Chris Kreider - Warming trend continues Kreider scored a goal Saturday in a 4-1 victory over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Keider's second-period goal ended up as the winner. He intercepted an errant cross-ice pass by Leafs rookie Gavin McKenna and finished a breakaway with a wrister past Sergei Bobrovsky's right pad. Kreider's overall stat line (three goals, six assists; 20 shots) looks tepid at best. But he has five points (two goals, three assists) and 10 shots in his last five games. There's increasing warmth in his game.

Zachary Bolduc - Quietly taking step forward Bolduc scored a goal Saturday in a 4-2 victory over Toronto. He had three shots and three hits.

Impact Bolduc's goal on a third-period power play cemented the Habs victory; it ran the score to 4-2 at 12:15 of that frame. It was his first goal in five games and second in his last nine. Bolduc does have 26 hits in 17 games, and his six goals put him in a tie for third on the team list in that category. Right now, he's on pace for a 30-goal, 120-hit season, a rare feat in the NHL.

Alex Newhook - Two goals help set up win Newhook scored twice Saturday in a 4-2 win over Toronto.

Impact Both goals came in the first period, giving the Habs a 2-0 lead. Newhook is a first-round pick (2019) who has never really stepped into his draft predigree, but he does have a Stanley Cup ring (Colorado, 2021). He has nine points (five goals, four assists) in 17 games this season (17 shots), but four of those goals and one helper have come in his last five games. That's a significant feat for a fourth-line player.

Jacob Fowler - Calder Trophy fave impresses again Fowler made 26 saves in a 4-2 win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday.

Impact Fowler was perfect until the 6:19 mark of the third period and then allowed two goals in 55 seconds. Cue the trauma of Tuesday's collapse against Winnipeg, but he and the team pulled themselves together for the victory. Fowler is 8-1-1, including 8-0-1 in his past nine games. Braden Holtby was the last rookie goalie age 21 years or younger with a nine-point streak (2010-11) . At this point in the season, Fowler has to be the favorite for the Calder Trophy as best rookie. His 2.15 GAA is seventh in the NHL and most impressively, his .925 save percentage is third overall.
