Former Canadiens Goalie Zach Fucale Sparks Rumors After Reacting to a Statement Involving Alex Carrier
The former Montreal Canadiens goaltender, Zachary Fucale, has indeed responded to a statement involving Alexandre Carrier and the Canadiens organization. As you can imagine, it didn't take much for rumors about his return to Montreal to start swirling.
Let's recall that, recently, we reported that Fucale is working toward a return to the National Hockey League.
Here's the gist of what was reported:
«Zachary Fucale recently changed agents, teaming up with Dan Milstein, a man renowned for his strong relationships in the hockey world.
This change aims to prepare his return to North America for the 2025-2026 season. According to Kevin Weekes, several NHL teams are already showing interest in his services.»
This was before Jakub Dobes was called up and before Cayden Primeau was reassigned to the Laval Rocket, so Fucale's name was linked to the Montreal Canadiens.
Zachary Fucale responds to a statement by Anthony Marcotte involving Alexandre Carrier and the Montreal Canadiens
In any case, Fucale continues to keep an eye on the activities of the Canadiens, as he recently responded to a statement by the official game announcer for the Laval Rocket.
See the post in question:
The Canadiens have become pretty tough to play against since the acquisition of Alexandre Carrier. - Anthony Marcotte
Not surprised! - Zach Fucale
It seems he knows the Canadiens' new Quebec-born defenseman, Alexandre Carrier, quite well.
Fucale, aged 29, standing 6 foot 2, and weighing 187 pounds, was the 36th overall pick by the Montreal Canadiens in 2013 (second round). He currently has a 15-11-2 record this season in the KHL, with a 2.17 goals-against average and a .922 save percentage.
He's been absolutely dominant there.
Do you believe he could be an interesting option for Kent Hughes, starting with the Laval Rocket and possibly moving up to the big club?
