Top Joel Armia News

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Finishes off St. Louis

    Armia scored a goal on four shots, logged an assist, blocked one shot and had two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

    Armia set up Jake Evans for Montreal's first goal before scoring an empty-netter to seal the win. Armia's goal was his first of the season. He has one goal, two assists, 18 shots, 13 hits, two blocks and six PIM through eight outings in 2024-25.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Logs two helpers in loss

    Armia recorded two assists, one on the power play, two shots, one hit and two penalty minutes in Thursday's 6-4 loss to Boston.

    Armia had a hand in both of Brendan Gallagher's goals. He's never delivered on the promise of being a first-round draft pick in 2011, but Armia is coming off a career-high 17-goal season and has been handed a top-six role while skating on the second power-play unit to open the season.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Skating on second line

    Armia skated on the second line during Monday's practice, Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette reports.

    Armia is getting first crack at the wing spot made available by Patrik Laine's knee injury, which is expected to keep him out 2-3 months. Armia, who scored a career-high 17 goals last season, is also expected to line up on the second-unit power play when the puck drops on Montreal's regular season Wednesday at home against Toronto.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Gets two points Tuesday

    Armia had a goal and an assist in a 9-3 win over Philadelphia on Tuesday.

    Armia is up to 17 goals and 24 points in 62 contests this season. Although he's never recorded more than 30 points in a single campaign and is unlikely to change that in 2023-24, Armia is ending the campaign on a high note. The 30-year-old has supplied six goals and eight points across his past eight appearances.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Tickles twine twice in loss

    Armia scored twice Thursday in a 7-4 loss to the Lightning.

    He opened the scoring when he batted in a rebound at 2:37 of the first period. His second tally knotted the game at 2-2 at 4:42 of the second. Don't look now, but Armia has five goals (six points) in his last five games and 16 markers (24 points) in 59 games overall.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: On a roll

    Armia scored a goal on four shots and had one hit in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Florida.

    Less than a minute after the Panthers took the lead in the first period, Armia deposited a rebound of a Michael Pezzetta shot into an open side of the net for Montreal's first goal. It was the third tally in four games for Armia, who is enjoying his most productive season since 2019-20. The 30-year-old forward is up to 14 goals through 58 games and needs three more over the final eight games to establish a new career high.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Pockets empty-netter

    Armia scored a goal on three shots, had an assist and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Flyers.

    It was a productive final three minutes for Armia, who logged an empty-net goal then assisted on a second tally with Philadelphia's goalie pulled. It was the second straight game with a goal for Armia, who is up to 13 tallies this season.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Pots winner

    Armia scored a goal on six shots and had one hit in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Avalanche.

    Armia potted what turned out to be the game-winning goal late in the first period after dogged forecheck work by the Canadiens. He controlled a puck that had gotten behind Justus Annunen and pocketed a wraparound shot for his 12th tally of the season. The goal snapped a nine-game pointless run for Armia, who is still seeing healthy ice time on the rebuilding Habs' second line.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Strikes early in loss

    Armia scored a goal on three shots and had one hit in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to Tampa Bay.

    Armia put the Canadiens on top just 87 seconds into the first period. He was part of a two-on-one break with Kaiden Guhle and sniped a wrister past Andrei Vasilevskiy for his 11th goal of the season. The 30-year-old forward seems miscast on a young, rebuilding club, but Armia is getting steady playing time on the second line after opening the season in the AHL.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Logs two-pointer in win

    Armia had a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Coyotes. He added four shots and two blocks to his line.

    Armia joined the breakout and finished a perfect feed from Alex Newhook for his 10th goal. That's the most for the 30-year-old since the career-high 16 potted in 2019-20. The two points upped Armia to 15 for the season, also his most since that 2019-20 season.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Logs two-assist night

    Armia had two assists, three shots on net and two PIM over 15:07 of ice time in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals.

    Armia led the breakout of the Canadiens' zone that resulted in an Arber Xhekaj tally in the first period, then he tussled with two Washington defenders in the second period to set up Alex Newhook's first goal since he returned from injury. Assists have been a rare commodity this season for Armia, who entered the night with one helper over 38 games.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Scores in loss

    Armia scored a goal on four shots, blocked one shot, recorded one hit and added two PIM in Sunday's 7-2 loss to St. Louis.

    None of Armia's four shots got past Jordan Binnington, but a David Savard attempt caromed off Armia's body and in. The tally was his ninth over 36 games and snapped a five-game scoring drought.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Tallies in loss

    Armia scored a goal on two shots and had one hit over 14:27 of ice time in Saturday's 9-4 loss to the Bruins.

    Armia joined a breakout and was well positioned to redirect Joshua Roy's feed past Linus Ullmark for Montreal's second goal during an exciting first period. The tally was the Armia's eighth, his highest total since 2019-20, when he scored 16 goals.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Logs first helper

    Armia had an assist, three shots and one hit over 18:16 of ice time in Wednesday's 3-2 win over New Jersey.

    Armia smartly took advantage of an ill-timed New Jersey line change, sending a stretch pass to Sean Monahan, who worked a 2-on-1 that resulted in a Joshua Roy tally. It was the first assist of the season for Armia, who has four points over the last seven games.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Pots game-winner

    Armia scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 4-3 win over the Avalanche. He added one block, one hit and two penalty minutes over 19:49 of ice time.

    Armia potted the game-winning goal with just over four minutes left in the third period. It was a dogged effort that saw him battle through a thicket of Colorado defenders and lunge at a loose puck to beat Alexandar Georgiev. The tally was Armia's third in six contests and seventh of the season, placing him fourth on the team. His 15.6 shooting percentage is by far the best he's had since entering the NHL.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Strikes again

    Armia scored a goal on three shots and had four blocks over 12:36 of ice time in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Rangers.

    Montreal's fourth line kept the pressure on in the offensive zone to produce the team's third goal. Michael Pezzetta won a battle along the boards, getting the puck to Mitchell Stephens, who hit Armia for his second goal in as many games. The 30-year-old forward has a career-best 14.6 shooting percentage (six goals, 41 shots).

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Scores shortie in loss

    Armia had a short-handed goal, three shots on net and two penalty minutes over 15:12 of ice time in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Sabres.

    Armia stripped Rasmus Dahlin for the unassisted, short-handed tally. And that was all the offense the Canadiens could muster in their first game at home following a season-long, seven-game road trip. Montreal's next-to-last penalty-kill unit dug a hole by allowing two Sabres' tallies before Armia made it a 2-1 game heading into the third period. The goal snapped a seven-game drought for Armia, who has five markers (two while shorthanded) over 22 games.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Costly penalty in loss

    Armia had one shot, one hit and two penalty minutes over 14:01 of ice time in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Florida.

    What had been a close game turned Florida's way after Armia's offensive-zone roughing penalty that led to the Panthers' game-winning goal. Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette and Arpon Basu of The Athletic characterized the penalty has "dumb" and "brutal," respectively, and wondered why it didn't cost the veteran ice time -- Armia took normal shifts following the momentum-swinging infraction. When asked how to address a costly penalty, Montreal head coach Martin St. Louis said, "Conversation, it's got to be corrected. It can't happen. Ice time. There's many ways to address it, but it's got to be addressed." The penalty was not addressed immediately Saturday but could lead to less ice time going forward for Armia, who has one point (a goal) over the last 10 games.

  • Canadiens' Joel Armia: Strikes first in win

    Armia scored a goal on two shots and had one hit over 14:25 of ice time in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    Armia gave the Canadiens a 1-0 lead in the second period, finishing off the hard work of Brendan Gallagher, who managed to slide him the puck while face down on the ice. It was the third goal in the last eight games for Armia, who has spent portions of the season in the AHL and been a healthy scratch eight times in 22 games.
