Race to the playoffs in 2024-2025: it’s a dream come true for the Habs, says Geoff Molson
Auteur: DoseWith the playoffs approaching in the National Hockey League, it’s hard not to look at the Montreal Canadiens and get excited for those playoff games that are so spectacular to watch.
It’s normal and it’s for the best of the team, but it’s clear that it’s getting frustrating for many Habs fans not to even be in the playoff hunt.
We knew even before the season that the Tricolore wouldn’t fight for the playoffs, and we’ve known for a few months now that the Habs weren’t on track to surprise us, and that they’d once again finish at the bottom of the NHL.
But we’re beginning to wonder when the team will be back on the competitive side of the NHL and at least fighting for the playoffs for a good part of the season.
Indeed, that’s what we read in an excellent article by Renaud Lavoie, who sat down with Molson to ask several questions on a variety of subjects.
“It’s looking good for next season and we can dream of being in the mix next year because of all the development that’s been going on.” – Geoff Molson
“We see a team preparing to be a very good team soon.” – Geoff Molson
In short, if Molson’s words are anything to go by, believing in seeing the Habs in a playoff race in the 2024-2025 season isn’t crazy.

– Matt Murray is back, and will play a few games in the American League.
Since Matt Murray is on an LTIR conditioning loan, he’s permitted to remain with the Marlies for a period not to exceed the longer of six days or three games.
The Marlies play tonight in Syracuse and then Wednesday at Rochester.
