Le Canadien grimpe au classement, mais reste exclus des séries
Les Canadiens de Montréal occupent maintenant le deuxième rang de la division Atlantique devant les Sabres.
www.fanadiens.comHere is the latest available on the Canadiens de Montréal standings and recent context.
-
The Canadiens have been up in the Atlantic Division standings in recent reports, but remain outside the playoff picture due to tiebreakers and points totals as of early April 2026. This is based on season-long performance and current point totals, which show Montreal hovering around the upper part of the division without securing a playoff berth yet.[1]
-
As of the latest updates, Buffalo and Tampa Bay hold the playoff-berth positions in the Atlantic, with Montreal climbing or slipping depending on late-season results and tiebreakers (victories in regulation time contribute to the math used for playoff qualification).[1]
-
Additional sources summarize Montreal’s record around the 45-21-10 range after 76 games, indicating a strong regular season but highlighting that the team is mathematically excluded from the playoffs due to the specific tiebreak criteria and the performances of competing clubs like Buffalo.[1]
If you’d like, I can compile a quick, cited snapshot of the Canadiens’ standings by date (e.g., after each game or after key milestones) and provide a short explanation of how the tiebreakers are affecting their playoff status. I can also fetch more recent or region-specific coverage from Maltese or European outlets if you want local perspectives.
