The Canadiens in the Stanley Cup Final again: a very specific condition
In 2021, the Canadiens last appeared in the Stanley Cup Final, and although it has only been three years, a lot has changed since then.
Looking at the team's current state, the face of the team has completely changed, and let's not forget that the last three seasons have been long, with the team finishing 32nd, 28th, and 28th in the overall standings.
By "long," I mean the lack of results has been painful, though necessary. Today, we see what the team is becoming, and there are good reasons to be optimistic.
Could the Canadiens reach the Stanley Cup Final soon?
According to Simon Boisvert, who is usually quite critical of the Canadiens, Michael Hage could very well play on the third line when he's ready to make the jump to the NHL.
With Nick Suzuki, Kirby Dach, and Alex Newhook all potential top-6 centers, Hage's role might indeed be lower, and if that happens, the Canadiens would have a nice problem to have.
Because Michael Hage is one heck of a hockey player."

Obviously, «The Snake» means that the Canadiens are starting to build significant depth on offense, and if Hage is used on the third line, it indicates that the team will be quite formidable.
According to Boisvert, the upcoming years are very encouraging for the Canadiens. It's refreshing to hear him speak positively about the organization for once.
