Predictions : Daily Faceoff sees the Habs winning the Stanley Cup… in 2030

Crédit: Cole Caufield scores a goal and is congratulated by teammates.

The Canadiens are building something interesting. There are already some good young players in place, the team is counting on some good prospects, and it’s looking promising for what’s to come. When’s the next Stanley Cup in Montreal?What if I told you it could be in 2030.. . That’s the prediction of the DailyFaceoff website, which had some fun projecting the 29-30 season.

Eight teams are among the “aspiring” clubs in the text: the Sens (#8), the Ducks (#7), the Hurricanes (#6), the Sharks (#5), the Blackhawks (#4), the Wild (#3), the Stars (#2) and, of course, the Canadiens (#1).“Congratulations to the Montreal Canadiens, Stanley Cup Champions 2030”, as the article reads:

[content-ads] In 2030, the Habs will have several assets on hand.

Noah Dobson, Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, Juraj Slafkovsky, Ivan Demidov, Kaiden Guhle, Lane Hutson, Zachary Bolduc, David Reinbacher, Jacob Fowler… The oldest of this group in 2030 will be Nick Suzuki.And he’ll only be 30. Ultimately, there are several factors that will play a role in the team’s progression. If the stars align, the Canadiens will be dangerous. We saw the potential of this club last year when it made the playoffs… and when nobody expected the team to be so successful so soon. What’s next is exciting, at least. Because right now, the Habs are already well equipped… and when all the players have come of age, it’s going to be even more special on the ice. [spacer title=’Overtime’] – Jaime I like it.

– It’s coming!

– Indeed.
