Nick Suzuki is ready to build on what the Canadiens accomplished last season
MONTREAL – For the third straight year, Montreal Canadiens captain Nick Suzuki hosted his annual golf tournament Thursday in support of the Asista Foundation, which trains service dogs to help people with mental health needs and the organizations that support them. Last year's event came a few days after the Canadiens acquired Patrik Laine in a trade with the Columbus Blue Jackets, a transaction that sent a message to Suzuki and his teammates that the organization was prepared to turn a corner. Advertisement The Laine trade, however, came as no surprise to Suzuki, as general manager Kent Hughes had phoned him a few days earlier to take his pulse on adding Laine to the Canadiens' dressing room. This year, however, was different. Suzuki learned about the Canadiens' biggest acquisition of the summer on Twitter. On a bus. In Scotland. Suzuki was with Cole Caufield and some former teammates attending the wedding of Joel Edmundson when rumours of the Noah Dobson trade began filtering out on social media on June 27, the day of the first round of the NHL draft. 'Me and Cole were sitting on a bus leaving Eddy's wedding when a bunch of tweets started coming out that we were going to trade for Dobson. So me and Cole were kind of freaking out on the bus home,' Suzuki said Thursday. 'I actually texted Dobber to see if there was any truth to this. It hadn't been done yet, but he seemed like he was hoping it could possibly be the case. 'It was pretty cool. It's nice to have that addition, he's an amazing player and a good guy too.' Suzuki said he didn't see the July 1 trade with the St. Louis Blues for Zachary Bolduc coming either. When last season ended, Suzuki was perhaps the most vocal among the players in expressing reservations about the youngest team to make the playoffs getting even younger this year. He didn't want to take a step back, and getting younger was seen as making that a real possibility. There is still time for the Canadiens to make some other moves, but for now, the Canadiens have most definitely become younger. Christian Dvorak, Joel Armia and David Savard are gone and they are all being replaced by younger players. But the fact Dobson and Bolduc are among those players, along with prohibitive Calder Trophy favourite Ivan Demidov, has altered Suzuki's perspective somewhat on the perils of a young team getting younger and still looking to compete. Advertisement 'It's exciting,' Suzuki said. 'We've been trading guys away for a long time, so now that we're adding guys – really good NHL players – to the team, it's exciting for everyone. Talking to Dobber and Bolduc coming in, they're really excited to join the group. It's an exciting time for the Canadiens, the players and the fans can all see that. Now I'm just excited to get the season going.' Suzuki got to know Bolduc earlier this summer by attending the Osheaga music festival with him, and they were set to play in the same foursome later Thursday. He's known Dobson since 2018, when they were roommates at training camp for the Canadian World Junior team, a team that also included Canadiens free agent signing Joe Veleno. But this summer has also given Suzuki a chance to get to know Demidov on a different level. Suzuki, Laine, Demidov and Jake Evans have been the constants at the summer training sessions being held informally at the team's training facility in Brossard, along with a group of players bouncing in and out of town, a group that is bigger than usual, Suzuki said. 'It's special to have this many guys stick around,' he said. When Demidov arrived in Montreal at the end of last season, it was a whirlwind; the team was in the midst of a playoff race and Demidov was just trying to catch his breath. This summer has been far more conducive to the captain getting to know a core piece of the team a little better. And Suzuki has come away encouraged with what he's seen. 'He's a pretty goofy kid, he likes to have fun,' Suzuki said. 'But when he's working, he's super dialed in. It's nice to see from such a young guy like that. It's been impressive watching him through the summer. He finds something to work on and then he kind of sticks to that over multiple days, just trying to master his craft. It's been impressive to watch and I'm just trying to help him as much as I can this summer with little things. I can imagine he's just ready to start the season. It should be pretty fun for people to watch this year.' Advertisement The same impression can be drawn from what Suzuki has seen from Laine all summer. This is the first healthy offseason Laine has had in a long time and his decision to spend the summer in Montreal to prepare for the season bodes well for what the Canadiens can expect from him this summer. 'I'm hoping he starts great,' Suzuki said. 'He's looked really good in the gym, on the ice. I've seen him really happy to be in Montreal, living here throughout the summer and getting to train with all of us. Hopefully it puts him in a really good headspace going into the season. We all know what he can do, so I think he's looking forward to the opportunity to get out there and show what he can do.' Ultimately, that's what all the Canadiens players are eager for: to show what they can do, to show last year's playoff appearance was a surprise to everyone but them, to show they are prepared to do it again. '(Last year) our expectations for ourselves were higher than the media and the fans had, so I don't think it's any different this year,' Suzuki said. 'I want to be in the same spot or better. 'I think we have the team to do that.' Spot the pattern. Connect the terms Find the hidden link between sports terms Play today's puzzle

Palace's Eze on verge of Arsenal move as he misses European tie
Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze appeared to be moving closer to a transfer to Arsenal worth a reported £60 million ($81 million) after the England international was left out of the Eagles' team for their European tie on Thursday. There was no place for Eze in either the starting 11 or on the substitutes bench selected by Palace boss Oliver Glasner for the Conference League play-off at home to Fredrikstad. The 27-year-old attacking midfielder may now miss out on a final farewell to the Selhurst Park faithful for whom he is a hero after scoring the winning goal in Palace's FA Cup final triumph over Manchester City at Wembley in May -- the first time the south London club had lifted a major trophy. Tottenham Hotspur appeared to be on course to sign Eze during the Premier League's ongoing summer transfer window but that deal seems to have been scuppered by their arch north London rivals Arsenal. Were Eze, released by Arsenal as a 13-year-old, to join the Gunners he would become their seventh signing of the window and take their spending in this transfer period to beyond £250 million, with striker Viktor Gyokeres and midfielder Martin Zubimendi among those to have already made recent high-profile moves to the Emirates. The Gunners' interest in Eze intensified this week following a knee injury suffered by Kai Havertz. The Germany international came on as a second-half substitute in Arsenal's 1-0 win over Manchester United in their opening Premier League game of the new season last week and completed the match. Havertz, however, but did not feature in the club's open training session at the Emirates on Wednesday. It is unclear how long Havertz will be on the sidelines but Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta appears keen to strengthen his squad regardless as he bids to lead the Gunners to their first Premier League title in 22 years, having finished runners-up to Liverpool last season. Spurs, by contrast, ended the campaign in a lowly 17th place, although they did win the Europa League final. Arteta is due to speak to the media on Friday to preview Arsenal's league match away to Leeds on Saturday. jdg/pb

Apple TV Plus streaming service to cost $2 more per month in Canada
TORONTO — Prices are going up at the house of "Ted Lasso" and "Severance." Apple TV Plus has announced it's raising the cost to watch its streaming programs by $2 per month in Canada. Apple says it will now charge $14.99 a month, while the annual subscription price will remain at $129 per year. It's the first time the technology giant has hiked the fees at Apple TV Plus since late 2023. Other major streaming services, including Netflix and Amazon's Prime Video, have made similar moves in recent months, part of an effort to squeeze more profits out of viewers' shift away from traditional cable packages. While Apple TV Plus hosts a more limited selection of programming than its competitors, the brand has forged a reputation for its lavish productions, which include TV series "Silo" and "The Morning Show," as well as films "The Gorge" and best picture Oscar winner "Coda." The service also hosts major league soccer and baseball games. Earlier this year, Apple TV Plus launched its first app for Android devices, giving users of non-Apple phones and tablets mobile access to its entertainment library.
