A major proof of the quality of the Canadiens' goaltenders across the NHL

It appears that the decisions made by Kent Hughes are starting to pay off. According to The Athletic, the Canadiens now have the 4th best goaltending situation in the entire NHL.

The tandem of Samuel Montembeault and Cayden Primeau is well-regarded throughout the league. In a detailed analysis, The Athletic evaluated both the present and future of each team's goaltending.

It's likely that Jacob Fowler, Jakub Dobes, and even Yevgeni Volokhin in Russia have contributed to the Canadiens' impressive rating.

The Canadiens' management has been patient with Cayden Primeau, who will finally get a chance to make his full-time debut in the NHL this fall.

Samuel Montembeault is also expected to have a workload comparable to the NHL's top goaltenders, with the opportunity to prove his value with a new contract in hand.

Overall, it seems that the Canadiens have a very promising future not only on defense but also in goal.
