Stunning Canadiens Practice Scene Turns Heads in Brossard Ahead of Maple Leafs Clash
While the regular season hasn't even started yet, a sequence captured by Anthony Martineau has set social media on fire.
The TVA Sports journalist shared a short video of the Montreal Canadiens' first power play, and fans can't believe the level of cohesion.
The Canadiens' 1st Power play unit = Fire!
That puck movement.
I still believe it can do serious damage this season."

Martineau's message is clear: the Canadiens' power play seems ready to surprise everyone.
According to several observers present in Brossard, the unit composed of Cole Caufield, Nick Suzuki, Juraj Slafkovsky, Patrik Laine, and Lane Hutson executed several spectacular sequences with speed and precision.
A Canadiens Power Play That Could Finally Intimidate Opponents
Last year, the Canadiens' power play was often pointed out as a weakness. It had some good stretches with the resurgence of Patrik Laine.
But with a creative defenseman like Lane Hutson surrounded by dangerous players, I agree with Martineau - the power play could rank among the league's best.
Watching this footage, you can really feel the smooth chemistry.
It's clear that this version of the Canadiens could finally turn heads on special teams, especially if the chemistry continues to build like this.
Some fans are already dreaming of a top 10 ranking in the league - a realistic goal in my opinion.. especially considering that Demidov could soon be included on the first unit as well.
The Canadiens will have the chance to prove it in their first game against the Toronto Maple Leafs tomorrow.
