The United States, Canada, Finland and Sweden will play in the Feb. 12-20 4 Nations Face-Off. Here are the rosters and captains.

Montreal Canadiens forward Patrik Laine's fiancee, Jordan, shared an amusing and embarrassing moment involving their dog, Boogie, during a family skate event at the Bell Centre around Christmas time.

Laine's struggles began in December 2023 when he fractured his clavicle and was forced to miss most of the 2023-24 season. Shortly after that, he entered the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program and he didn't play again during the remainder of the season.

This evening, the Canadiens will try to secure a big victory. The task does not seem easy since the Winnipeg Jets are in town. We’re talking about the second-ranked team in the NHL standings!

Patrik Laine spoke about his struggles with depression and thoughts of quitting hockey on the Spittin' Chiclets podcast's Episode 541.
