  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Scores birthday goal Sunday

    Dvorak scored a power-play goal on two shots during Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Ducks.

    On his 29th birthday, Dvorak scored his fifth goal of the season to give the Canadiens a two-goal lead late in the first period. Dvorak ended a three-game point drought, but his efforts weren't enough as the Canadiens dropped their fifth straight game. He has a minus-5 rating over that span.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Helps in loss

    Dvorak had an assist and one shot on net in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings.

    Dvorak was part of a flurry of sticks and bodies in front of Cam Talbot that eventually led to Kirby Dach's wraparound goal early in the second period. It was the third point in the last three games for Dvorak, who had a two-point night in a win over the Rangers on Sunday. The third-line center isn't known as a prolific offensive force, but Dvorak was recently added to one of the power-play units and has averaged 1:58 of ice time per game while Montreal has been up a skater over his last six appearances.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Two points in overtime win

    Dvorak scored a goal on three shots, added an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Rangers.

    This was Dvorak's second multi-point effort of the campaign, and it ended a nine-game slump. He was involved in the Canadiens' first two goals, setting up Brendan Gallagher in the first period before scoring one of his own in the second. Dvorak is up to four tallies, 10 helpers, 60 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 46 appearances. He continues to play in a third-line role as a primarily defensive forward.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Generates helper in win

    Dvorak recorded an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Red Wings.

    Dvorak has picked up three helpers over his last four games. That's a strong run of offense for a third-liner who typically takes more of a defensive approach. He's at 11 points, 43 shots on net, 37 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 33 outings this season.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Posts assist in loss

    Dvorak notched an assist, four shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Jets.

    Dvorak ended an eight-game point drought when he set up Josh Anderson's third-period tally. The 28-year-old Dvorak has nine points through 30 games in 2024-25, matching his point total from the same number of appearances in an injury-riddled 2023-24. He's done it with two goals, seven assists, 40 shots on net, 32 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating. Dvorak is more of a defensive forward, and he is unlikely to see much more ice time than his usual third-line role provides.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Collects helper Tuesday

    Dvorak produced an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to Utah.

    Dvorak snapped a four-game slump with the primary helper on Alex Newhook's third-period marker. The 28-year-old Dvorak is holding steady in a middle-six role, playing as a two-way center. He has two goals, six helpers, 25 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 21 appearances. His 2023-24 was interrupted by two long-term injuries, but he posted no fewer than 28 points in the four campaigns before that, and that seems to be a reasonable level of offense for him to aim for this season.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Sets up empty-netter

    Dvorak managed an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

    Dvorak set up Joel Armia's empty-netter to seal the win. The 28-year-old Dvorak saw 16:10 of ice time Saturday, his second-highest total of the season. The defensive center has two assists, eight shots on goal, seven blocked shots, three hits and a minus-4 rating through eight appearances. He's likely to spend the bulk of the campaign in a bottom-six role.

    Dvorak had a power-play assist and one hit in Saturday's 4-1 win over Ottawa.

    Dvorak set up a wide-open Emil Heineman for Montreal's first goal midway through the first period for his first point of the season.

Dvorak has just 27 seconds of power-play ice time through three games this season.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Two goals in return from injury

    Dvorak (pectoral) scored twice Tuesday in a 9-3 romp over the Flyers.

    It was Dvorak's first game since Dec. 30 because of a torn pectoral muscle. The winger has skated in just 26 games this season and delivered five goals and four assists. With a handful of games remaining, Dvorak could push hard to prove his mettle for a middle-six role in 2024-25.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Returning Tuesday

    Dvorak (pectoral) will return to action Tuesday when the Habs host the Flyers, per Eric Engels of Sportsnet.

    Dvorak has played only 25 games this season, recording three goals and four assists to go along with 32 shots on goal. The 28-year-old has managed to score 10 or more goals in his previous four seasons but likely won't hit that mark this season. He will probably slide onto the third or fourth line, as he hasn't played since Dec. 30.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Could still return this season

    Dvorak (pectoral) is now considered day-to-day and could return before the end of the 2023-24 campaign, Arpon Basu of The Athletic reports.

    Dvorak was originally expected to miss the rest of the season after undergoing pectoral surgery in early January, but it appears he could get into a few games before the campaign comes to a close. He picked up seven points through 25 games before undergoing surgery.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Moved to IR

    Dvorak (pectoral) was placed on injured reserve Friday, per CapFriendly.

    Dvorak was already ruled out for the season so this is simply a procedural move. He ended the 2023-24 campaign with seven points in 25 games. His status for training camp should become clearer over the summer.

  • Canadiens' Christian Dvorak: Ruled out for season

    Dvorak will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign due to a torn pectoral injury. He will undergo surgery Friday.

    Dvorak's year never really got underway after he missed the first 10 games of the campaign due to a knee injury that cost him the end of the 2022-23 season as well. In his 25 appearances this campaign, the 27-year-old winger managed three goals and four assists, including one power-play point while averaging 15:56 of ice time. Without Dvorak on the squad, Sean Monahan will likely move into a second-line center role. While not official yet, Dvorak probably will be designated for long-term injured reserve in the coming days in order to free up extra cap space for the Canadiens.
