The 2015–16 Montreal Canadiens season was the 107th season of the franchise that was founded on December 4, 1909, and their 99th season in the National Hockey League.[3] The team began its regular season on October 7, 2015 against the Toronto Maple Leafs, recording a 3–1 victory.[4] This season also marked the franchise's best start to a campaign with 9 consecutive wins, achieving a record of 9–0–0 over that span.[5] The Canadiens did not suffer a loss until their 10th game of the season, falling to the Vancouver Canucks' 5–1 on October 27.[5] But later when their goaltender Carey Price suffered a season-ending injury, the Canadiens faced their worst slump since the 1939-40 season. Factors behind the slump were not only an injured goaltender Carey Price but several of their key players injured and the team's offense struggling. The team went 21–34–4 following a win over the New York Rangers on November 25, 2015, a game where Price suffered a knee injury (later revealed to be a medial collateral ligament injury), subsequently ending his season. With this, Montreal missed the playoffs for the first time since 2012. No Canadian team in the NHL made the playoffs that year. It was the first time since 1970 that all Canadian teams in the NHL missed the playoffs.

Off-season

On September 18, 2015, it was announced that Max Pacioretty was named the 29th captain after a player vote, with Andrei Markov, P. K. Subban, Brendan Gallagher and Tomas Plekanec as alternate captains.[1][2] Gallagher and Markov will be paired and Subban and Plekanec would be their own pair, with a rotating routine with one pair playing their part at home and the other on the road.[6]

The introduction of rookie goaltender Mike Condon to the main roster also highlighted notable off season moves by the club. After a stellar pre-season performance, Condon was ultimately rewarded for his play, subsequently replacing Dustin Tokarski on the goalie tandem as back-up to starter Carey Price.[7]

Regular Season

The notoriety of the 2015–16 Montreal Canadiens season had been the extensive amount of injuries which had plagued members of the main roster. At the forefront of this misfortune was starting goaltender Carey Price, who had suffered a lower-body injury during a 4‒3 loss to the Edmonton Oilers on October 29, 2015.[8] He was sidelined with the injury until November 20 in a 5‒3 win against the New York Islanders after having missed nine games with a 5‒2‒2 record.[9]

However, on November 25, Price re-aggravated his lower-body injury in a 5‒1 victory against the New York Rangers and did not return for the third period.[10] At the time, Price was expected to miss an additional 6 weeks.[10] Ultimately, Price's return did not actualize, and, on April 6, 2016, the Montreal Canadiens announced that Price would not return for the 2015–16 season. The extent of Price's injury was revealed to be a medial collateral ligament injury (MCL sprain).[11]

On November 22, against the New York Islanders, right winger Brendan Gallagher sustained injuries to his fingers after attempting to block a shot.[12] His injuries required surgery and was expected to miss at least six weeks.[13] Gallagher returned for the 2016 Winter Classic in a 5‒1 win against the Boston Bruins and managed a goal and an assist, also receiving the first star of the game.[14][15]

On March 10, 2016, defenseman P.K. Subban sustained a neck injury after colliding with defenseman Alexei Emelin in a 3–2 win against the Buffalo Sabres.[16] Subban was sent to the hospital as a precautionary measure and was released the following day with a non-serious injury.[16] On April 6 the club announced that Subban would miss the last two games of the 2015–16 season.[11]

Other notable injuries included those to defencemen Tom Gilbert, Jeff Petry, as well as Nathan Beaulieu. Due to the magnitude of sidelined players, many prospects had gained the opportunity to draw select time in the lineup, with Michael McCarron, Morgan Ellis, Joel Hanley, Darren Dietz, Daniel Carr, Charles Hudon, Brett Lernout, Ryan Johnston, and Charlie Lindgren all making their respective NHL debuts at some point throughout the season.

Draft notes[70]
  • The Montreal Canadiens' second-round pick went to the Edmonton Oilers (later traded to the NY Rangers and Washington Capitals) as the result of a trade on March 2, 2015 that sent Jeff Petry to Montreal in exchange for a conditional fifth-round pick in 2015 and this pick.[71]
