Here are five things you should know about the 2018-19 Canadiens. Brendan Gallagher, who is coming off a career-high 31-goal season, is a relative old-timer at 26. Carey Price has been the backbone of this team for much of the past decade but he is coming off the worst season of his pro career. Offence found lacking: The Canadiens ranked 29th in goals scored last season with 207 and were shut out a record 12 times. Xavier Ouelett, who came to camp with a two-way contract, will start the season alongside Karl Alzner.
