Canadiens' Owen Beck: Finally gets first NHL goal
Rotowire
Beck scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Penguins.
Beck had looked to have a goal a few times already, but overturned calls and scoring changes had denied him until Saturday. The 21-year-old struck at 18:49 of the first period to give the Canadiens a 2-0 lead. The goal was his first in 21 NHL appearances, eight of which have come this season. He's added eight shots on net, 15 hits, five blocked shots and a plus-3 rating this year, and he may stick in the lineup until Phillip Danault (illness) links up with the team in Boston on Tuesday.

Canadiens' Owen Beck: Headed back to minors
Rotowire
Beck was reassigned to AHL Laval on Tuesday.
Beck's demotion comes as the team gears up for a four-game road trip, with Joshua Roy recalled from the minors in a corresponding move. In two NHL games this year, the 21-year-old Beck has failed to register a point while logging just one shot. While Beck should remain on the short list of potential call-ups throughout the 2025-26 campaign, he'll likely need some time in the minors to improve his offensive production.

Canadiens' Owen Beck: Sent to AHL camp
Rotowire
Beck was reassigned to AHL Laval on Saturday.
The Canadiens trimmed down their training camp roster significantly after Saturday's game versus the Maple Leafs. The 20-year-old Beck is poised for his first taste of AHL action this season after producing 81 points in 57 regular-season games between OHL clubs in Peterborough and Saginaw last season. As one of the Canadiens' top prospects, he could get a look in the NHL later this season if he adjusts to the AHL well.
