Ahead of Wednesday’s season opener against the Toronto Maple Leafs, RDS analyst and Canadiens legend Guy Carbonneau said he believes the Montreal Canadiens patient rebuilding approach is the right one.
The Montreal Canadiens have endured a pair of tough seasons since falling in the Stanley Cup Final to the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2021. The team has finished last in the Atlantic Division and bottom five in the league in each of the past two seasons.
“I like what Kent and are doing. They’re taking their time,” Carbonneau said on TSN’s First Up on Wednesday. “That’s hard in Montreal. They want to win quickly and that’s hard with the salary cap. They’re doing the right things. I expect a fun season and an exciting team. Carbonneau said he expected a little more from Slafkovsky’s rookie season but did see signs of improvement from the Slovakian before injury ended his campaign.
“I know Martin and the organization are going to be there,” Carbonneau said. “ will have all the tools and time necessary to develop. I don’t judge a career in the first couple of years, so we’ll see.”
