Just before tonight’s return to the Bell Centre against the Buffalo Sabres, Sportsnet reported the forwards who have been named to the NHL Eastern Conference team. To little surprise, there weren’t many Montreal Canadiens named to the team.
Except, of course, their captain Nick Suzuki.
Suzuki is clocking in just a shade under a point-per-game this season, with 34 points through 37 games heading into tonight’s contest. He’s on pace for a career year, and could potentially add to his totals before the night is over.
