If you look at the next four seasons, though, you can see the team’s record trending up. In 2022-23, they had a 31-45-6 record with a .415 points percentage; that’s when the Canadiens hit rock bottom. The following season, in 2023-24, they had a 30-36-16 record for a .463 points percentage. They had one fewer win, but a much lower number of regulation losses as well. Then, last season, they went 40-31-11 with a .555 points percentage, a tremendous improvement. Finally, this season, they are 32-17-8 for a .632 points percentage, well on their way to their best season under St-Louis.
