The Canadiens have improved significantly since the end of the season
The Canadiens haven't played since mid-April and haven't made any significant moves, but one can deduce that they have still improved considerably.
Why? If we properly evaluate the performances of the three representatives of the Tricolore at the World Championship, we can think that they continue to progress, improve, and even prove that they are part of the elite.
Cole Caufield has regained his offensive touch and is playing with inspiring confidence in the American uniform. The first-line winger for the Canadiens has tallied 8 points in 7 games since the start of the competition.
Kaiden Guhle no longer seems bothered by his diagnosed concussion at the end of the regular season, and he is a leader on Canada's blue line. André Tourigny is using him in all situations.
Juraj Slafkovsky is also one of the best players on the Slovakian team. Slaf has been averaging a point per game since the start of the tournament, and his rapid progression continues at the World Championship.
We can even mention the performances of the prospect Oliver Kapanen with Finland.
Sports journalist Louis Jean dissected this improvement for the Canadiens, even though the season ended a few weeks ago. He's not wrong in his explanation:
