Canadiens' Jake Evans: Lights lamp again
Evans scored a goal and blocked two shots in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Avalanche.
Evans has scored in consecutive contests. The 29-year-old forward continues to fill a bottom-six role, but he's moving toward more of a two-way contribution rather than pure defense. The veteran forward has seven goals, six assists, 42 shots on net, 47 hits, 30 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating over 40 appearances.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Wins it in overtime
Evans scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Golden Knights.
Evans has a point in each of the last two games. The 29-year-old is looking more like himself now, supplying a little depth scoring to go with defensive play in a bottom-six role, though he often sees more ice time than that usage would suggest. He's up to six goals, 12 points, 41 shots on net, 46 hits, 28 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a minus-11 rating over 39 appearances.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Gets first helper since return
Evans logged an assist in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Bruins.
Evans picked up his first point in four games since returning from a lower-body injury. He missed 13 contests with the issue, and he's retaken a third-line spot. The 29-year-old has 11 points, 38 shots on net, 45 hits, 27 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating over 38 appearances this season. Evans should be a regular in the lineup thanks to his defensive prowess.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Off injured reserve
Evans (lower body) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, per the NHL media site.
Despite being described as a game-time decision for Saturday's clash against Ottawa, Evans appears ready to return to the lineup. He hasn't played since Dec. 20 due to the injury. Evan is likely to serve in a middle-six capacity, and his return might result in Sammy Blais being a healthy scratch versus the Senators.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Game-time call Saturday
Evans (lower body) will be a game-time decision ahead of Saturday's game in Ottawa, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
Evans has missed the last 13 games after getting hurt Dec. 20 versus Pittsburgh. Evans has five goals, five assists and 44 hits in 34 contests this season. He will need to come off injured reserve to return to the lineup.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Will miss 4-6 weeks
Evans (lower body) is expected to miss the next 4-6 weeks, the team announced Saturday.
Evans was already on injured reserve after suffering the injury Dec. 20. He has five goals and 10 points in 34 appearances this season. His absence might lead to Sammy Blais being in the lineup regularly. When Evans is healthy, he should resume his middle-six role.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Moves to IR
Evans (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Sunday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
The Canadiens recalled Sammy Blais from AHL Laval in a corresponding move. Evans suffered the injury in Saturday's 4-0 win over Pittsburgh. He will miss at least the next two games, starting with Sunday's rematch against the Penguins, after moving to injured reserve. Evans has five goals, 10 points, 34 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and 44 hits through 34 appearances this season.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Not starting road trip
Evans (lower body) won't be with the Canadiens for their game in Pittsburgh on Sunday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.
Evans was injured Saturday and will undergo further evaluation. The Canadiens don't have any extra forwards available, so it's possible Jayden Struble will draw into the lineup as a seventh defenseman instead. Evans' status for the rest of the road trip, which wraps around the holiday break, has yet to be determined. Phillip Danault (illness) is expected to link up with the team in Boston after being traded from the Kings on Friday and could step in for Evans in Tuesday's contest against the Bruins.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Sustains lower-body injury
Evans suffered a lower-body injury and won't return to Saturday's game against Pittsburgh.
Evans logged just 1:57 of ice time across three shifts before exiting the game. The Canadiens would be down to 11 healthy forwards if Evans isn't an option for Sunday's rematch in Pittsburgh, which could lead to a call-up from the minors.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Lights lamp in loss
Evans scored a goal, put two shots on net, served two PIM and dished out three hits in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers.
Evans gave the Canadiens a 3-0 lead in the first period, but the Rangers promptly surged back with two goals of their own prior to the first intermission. The 29-year-old winger is up to five goals, nine points, 34 shots on net, 42 hits and 23 blocks through 30 games this season. He is currently centering the third line and has continued to provide all-around stat coverage. There are likely better options for higher-end scoring in fantasy, but Evans should continue to be a steady source of category coverage when he's in the lineup.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Back in action Saturday
Evans (personal) will return to the lineup against the Rangers on Saturday.
Evans missed one game due to personal reasons. He has four goals and four assists in 29 games this season. Jared Davidson will come out of the lineup with the return of Evans.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Won't play Thursday
Evans will miss Thursday's game against Pittsburgh for personal reasons.
Evans is expected to rejoin the Canadiens in New York, which leaves the door open for him to return Saturday versus the Rangers. He has four goals and eight points in 29 appearances in 2025-26. Owen Beck is likely to draw into the lineup Thursday due to Evans' absence.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Adds insurance goal
Evans scored a goal on three shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Friday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Evans continues to chip in a decent amount of supporting offense. He has three goals and three helpers over his last 10 outings while filling a middle-six role. The 29-year-old forward is up to four goals, eight points, 28 shots on net, 31 hits, 19 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a minus-11 rating through 23 contests this season.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Good to go
Evans (undisclosed) will be in the lineup against Toronto on Saturday, according to Eric Engels of Sportsnet.
Evans left Thursday's 8-4 loss to Washington after receiving a high hit from Tom Wilson. The 29-year-old Evans didn't experience any concussion symptoms and won't miss additional time due to the incident. He has contributed three goals, six points, 24 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and 26 hits in 20 appearances this season.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Exits Thursday's contest
Evans sustained an undisclosed injury and won't finish Thursday's game versus the Capitals.
Evans' injury puts the Canadiens' center depth in a dire position, as the team is already missing Kirby Dach (foot) and Alex Newhook (ankle). The 29-year-old Evans was rocked on a hit by Tom Wilson late in the second period of Thursday's game. More information on Evans' status should be available prior to Saturday's home game versus the Maple Leafs. Montreal will likely have to make a roster move if Evans is forced to miss time.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Nets shortie in loss
Evans scored a shorthanded goal, added two PIM and doled out three hits in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Bruins.
Evans has two goals and an assist over his last five games. The 29-year-old could be poised for more ice time in the near future as Alex Newhook (ankle) is out for four months and Kirby Dach (foot) is set to miss at least six weeks, depleting the Canadiens' options at center. Evans is at five points, 22 shots on net, 24 hits, 17 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a minus-11 rating over 18 appearances. He doesn't have a ton of offense in his game, but he's strong enough as a two-way forward to handle second-line minutes if necessary.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Gets goal in overtime loss
Evans scored a goal and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Devils.
Evans remains an important part of the Canadiens' defensive structure. He was listed on the fourth line Thursday but still saw 18:01 of ice time as the Canadiens tried and failed to protect a lead in the third period. The 29-year-old has just two goals and three points through 14 outings this season, so it looks like a repeat of his 36-point effort over 82 regular-season contests last year won't be happening. He's added 17 shots on net, 18 hits, 16 blocked shots and 10 PIM in 2025-26.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Fills empty cage Monday
Evans scored an empty-net goal on eight shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Monday's 4-2 win over the Sabres.
The empty-netter was Evans' first point in seven games this season. The 29-year-old has filled a prominent middle-six role, but his usage remains mostly defensive, so a lack of offense shouldn't be a surprise. Evans has added 10 shots on net, 10 blocks, nine hits and a minus-3 rating while averaging 15:39 of ice time. He's unlikely to repeat his 36-point effort from 82 regular-season outings last year, but a campaign in the 25-30 point range is possible.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Deposits empty-netter
Evans scored an empty-net goal in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.
Evans ended a 21-game goal drought with the empty-netter. In that span, he had seven assists, 20 shots on net, 32 hits and 21 blocked shots. The 28-year-old defensive forward will likely continue in a bottom-six role in the Canadiens' first-round series versus the Capitals. Evans ended the regular season with a career-best year of 13 goals, 23 assists, 80 shots on net, 124 hits, 60 blocks and a plus-1 rating over 82 appearances. Six of his 36 points came shorthanded.

Canadiens' Jake Evans: Two helpers in Thursday's win
Evans logged a pair of assists, two shots on goal, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Bruins.
Evans has two multi-assist games over his last nine contests, but he went scoreless in the other seven outings. He hasn't tickled the twine since March 1 versus the Sabres. The 28-year-old remains in a fourth-line role, and while he's had success there at times this season, he's not meant to be a reliable scorer in fantasy with that kind of usage. Evans is at 12 goals, a career-high 33 points, 73 shots on net, 107 hits, 56 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 75 appearances.
