Newhook notched two goals, went plus-2 and put two shots on net in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Stars.
Newhook recorded his first multi-goal game since the 2025-26 postseason. Overall, the 25-year-old center has three goals, six points, 14 shots on net, 15 hits and nine blocked shots across 13 outings this season. Newhook has been skating on the top line in the absence of Nick Suzuki (upper body). Newhook could be a solid waiver-wire pickup in deeper leagues if he maintains that role.

Newhook notched two assists and three shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Capitals.
Newhook earned his first multi-point effort of the season with this one. He's up to a goal, three helpers, eight shots on net, seven hits, six blocked shots and a minus-2 rating across seven outings. The 25-year-old was on his way to a breakout campaign last year before it got derailed by injuries. If he can produce around a 50-point pace this year, he'll be a decent depth forward in fantasy.

Newhook potted a goal and posted four hits in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Predators.
Newhook doubled Montreal's lead in the early stages of Thursday's second period with his first goal of the 2026-27 campaign. The 25-year-old center now has two points, four shots on net, seven hits and three blocked shots across four appearances this year. With a point in back-to-back games and solid category coverage from his second-line center role, Newhook is positioned well to contest for new career highs in multiple stat categories this season. He should be left on waivers in fantasy for the time being, but he could be a solid streaming option in deep leagues if his point streak continues to grow.

Newhook signed a four-year, $22.2 million contract extension with Montreal on Tuesday.
Before his new deal kicks in, Newhook has one more campaign remaining on his four-year, $11.6 million contract. He generated 13 goals, 25 points, 61 shots on net and 48 hits over 42 appearances during the 2025-26 regular season. The 25-year-old forward also led the Canadiens with seven goals in 19 games during the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Newhook scored the overtime winner Monday during the Canadiens' 3-2 victory over the Sabres in Game 7 of their second-round series.
After scoring the series-winner to finish off the Lightning in the first round, Newhook was the hero for the Habs once again. The 25-year-old took a pass from Alexandre Carrier midway through the first extra period, skated into the Sabres' end, and snapped a shot from the top of the faceoff circle through traffic past Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen. Over Montreal's last 10 playoff games, Newhook has racked up seven goals and nine points, and he'll look to stay hot when the Eastern Conference Finals begin in Carolina on Thursday.

Newhook scored a goal in a 3-2 loss to the Sabres on Tuesday in Game 4 of the second round of the playoffs.
The 25-year-old is emerging as one of the surprise heroes of the postseason. Newhook has found the back of the net five times in the last three games after scoring just 13 goals in 42 regular-season contests. Over his last seven outings, he's collected six goals and seven points. Newhook will attempt to carry that momentum into Game 5 in Buffalo on Thursday.
