The Winnipeg Jets (4-7-3) host the Montreal Canadiens (9-3-2) in an NHL regular-season game on 4 November 2026 at 00:00 UTC. Two Canadian clubs meet with contrasting early-season records.
Winnipeg Jets: a 4-7-3 start and the search for consistency
Winnipeg's record of four wins, seven regulation losses and three overtime or shootout defeats is worth 11 standings points. The Jets have lost more games than they have won; public reports suggest defensive consistency in front of home fans is the main concern.
Montreal Canadiens: 9-3-2 form sets an early benchmark
Montreal arrives with nine wins, three losses and two overtime or shootout defeats, translating to 20 points. Only three regulation defeats underpin that pace, and the test for the visitors is carrying it onto the road.
What the Jets–Canadiens matchup tests
The game pits Winnipeg's need for home points against a Montreal side protecting a strong record. The Jets' three extra-time defeats point to tight contests, while the Canadiens' mark reflects a schedule that has so far gone their way.
