Top Jake Evans News

  • 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.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Supplies pair of assists

    Evans logged two assists, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Senators.

    Evans ended a four-game point drought with his pair of helpers, which led to goals by Lane Hutson and Josh Anderson. Evans is up to 12 goals, 31 points, 61 shots on net, 100 hits, 46 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 67 appearances, securing a career year. His next target is his career-high 13 goals from 2021-22.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Notches helper Thursday

    Evans posted an assist and two hits in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Oilers.

    This was Evans' first game since he signed a four-year contract extension, which effectively took him off the trade board. The 28-year-old has two points over three outings in March. He won't be the most consistent scorer, but Evans has proven his value as a defensive forward who can handle the grinding work of a bottom-six role. He's matched his career high with 29 points through just 62 appearances, and he's added 59 shots on net, 95 hits, 43 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating this season. Those numbers put Evans on the fringe in most fantasy formats, but he can be helpful in deeper leagues.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Secures four-year extension

    Evans inked a four-year, $11.4 million contract extension with Montreal on Tuesday.

    Evans was expected to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason but has instead tied himself to the Habs for another four years. Over his career, the 28-year-old winger has been unable to top the 30-point threshold but should be able to reach that mark this year, having generated 28 points in 61 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Lights lamp Saturday

    Evans tallied an empty-net goal, blocked two shots and dished out three hits in Saturday's 4-2 win against Buffalo.

    Evans found the back of Buffalo's empty net with just over 90 seconds remaining in Saturday's contest. The 28-year-old forward is up to 12 goals, 28 points and 59 shots on goal in 60 appearances this season. Evans is just two points shy of matching his career high of 30 points in a season. In the absence of Kirby Dach (knee), Evans might be tasked with playing center for the foreseeable future on Montreal's fourth line.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Sets up game-winner Tuesday

    Evans logged a shorthanded assist in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

    For the second game in a row, Evans fed Joel Armia for a shorthanded tally. With two points through two outings in February, Evans has matched his total from all of January already. The 28-year-old defensive forward is up to 11 goals, 16 assists, 52 shots on net, 71 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating in 53 appearances. He ranks in a four-way tie for first in the league with six shorthanded points this season, even with Florida's Sam Reinhart and the Tampa Bay duo of Anthony Cirelli and Brandon Hagel.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Logs shorthanded helper in loss

    Evans notched a shorthanded assist and two PIM in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Ducks.

    Evans has three helpers over his last seven outings. The 28-year-old's offense has run more cold than hot lately -- he had a poor January after a strong December that he's unlikely to repeat. Overall, Evans is at 26 points through 52 outings, putting him three points shy of his career high from 2021-22. He's added 52 shots on net, 70 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating this season. A career-best five of his points have come while shorthanded.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Scores game-winning goal

    Evans scored the game-winning goal on two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Tampa Bay.

    With his tally, Evans was able to bring his 10-game goal drought to a close. Prior to his slump, the 28-year-old forward had scored in five straight games, so perhaps fantasy managers can expect more to come with Evans back on track. Still, the Toronto native remains stuck in a bottom-six role without power-play opportunities, which may limit his fantasy upside.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Slides helper in overtime win

    Evans produced an assist in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Rangers.

    Evans had the secondary helper on Patrik Laine's game-winner in overtime. The 28-year-old Evans was superb in December with 12 points over 14 contests, but his offense has corrected course in brutal fashion -- his helper Sunday was his first point in nine games in January. That's how it goes for fourth-liners, even those as critical to their team's performance as Evans. He's at 24 points, 45 shots on net, 63 hits and a plus-8 rating over 46 appearances. The chances are slim for him to ever have another month as strong as December, but he still carries fantasy value in deep formats.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Pockets another goal

    Evans scored a goal on his lone shot, blocked one shot and delivered two hits in Sunday's 5-2 win over Tampa Bay.

    Evans extended a point streak to six games and a career-high goal streak to five, beating Jonas Johansson to the short side from his off wing for the eventual game-winner. It was his 10th goal (31.3 shooting percentage) in 36 outings, putting him on pace to better the career-high 13 tallies logged in 2021. The fourth-line center is have a December to remember, with six goals and six assists over 13 outings.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Extends goal streak with shortie

    Evans logged a shorthanded goal on one shot in Saturday's 4-0 win over Florida.

    With Florida on its first and only power play, Evans took advantage of a sloppy pass in the neutral zone and beat Spencer Knight with a riser above the right shoulder to give Montreal a 3-0 lead. It was Evans' fourth straight game with a tally and his third with Montreal a skater down. The fourth-line center is up to nine goals, 13 assists and a staggering 29.0 shooting percentage through 35 outings.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Tallies again

    Evans scored a goal on two shots and assisted on another in Monday's 5-4 loss to Columbus. He also had one hit.

    Evans accepted a feed from Emil Heineman, split the defense and beat Jet Greaves to the glove-side that tied the game at 3-3 in the second period. He later assisted on a Joel Armia tally in the third that gave Montreal its first and only lead of the game. The Canadiens' fourth line has been hot of late, with Evans leading the charge -- he has points in four consecutive games including goals in the last three. His 21 points (eight goals, 13 assists) through 34 outings puts Evans on track to break his career-high 29 points over 72 games played in 2021-22.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Points in three consecutive

    Evans had a goal, two shots on net and one block in Saturday's 5-1 win over Detroit.

    Montreal's fourth line has been productive in three consecutive wins, and Evans has been a big part of it. Both he and Emil Heineman tallied Saturday, and Evans has points (two goals, two assists) in three consecutive outings.

  • Canadiens' Jake Evans: Pair of points in win

    Evans scored a shorthanded goal on two shots, added an assist, logged two hits and went plus-3 in Friday's 4-3 win over the Red Wings.

    Evans was involved in both of the Canadiens' goals in the first period. He's collected a career-high three shorthanded points already this season as he continues to show his value as a penalty killer and defensive forward. The 28-year-old has two goals and five helpers over nine outings in December, giving him a total of six goals, 18 points, 26 shots on net, 45 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 32 appearances this season.
