A long and painful 2022-23 season has officially come to a close for the Montreal Canadiens, with players and management addressing the media for the last time on Friday after a 5-4 loss to the Boston Bruins the previous night.
The Habs finish the campaign with 68 points and a 31-45-6 record, slotting them in 28th position in the NHL. Despite the challenges of navigating a myriad of injuries and a squad filled with raw, inexperienced talent, Montreal still managed to come away with a few silver linings in what was a mostly forgettable season.
