Danault tallied an empty-net goal, recorded an assist, posted a plus-2 rating and placed two shots on net in Thursday's 5-2 win over Dallas.
Danault sealed the deal in Thursday's contest with an empty-net tally in the final minute. The 33-year-old center's goal was his first of the 2026-27 campaign, giving him five points, 20 shots on net and a plus-7 rating across 13 appearances this season. With Nick Suzuki (upper body) still facing a multi-week absence, Danault has absorbed a larger role on Montreal's penalty kill.

Danault logged an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Danault has a helper in each of the last two games and three total assists through 10 contests. He's added 17 shots on net, six hits and a plus-5 rating in a middle-six role. Danault scored just six goals on 91 shots over 75 regular-season outings last season, the second year in a row he's missed the 10-goal mark. With mainly defensive usage, he probably won't improve on those numbers much in 2026-27.

Danault recorded two goals on four shots and a hit in Saturday's 4-1 preseason win over the Maple Leafs.
Danault spent time with the Kings and Canadiens last year, and his production took a significant hit despite appearing in 75 regular-season games. He recorded 11 goals, 17 assists, 63 hits, 40 blocked shots and 26 PIM while averaging 15:34 of ice time. He improved after being dealt to Montreal, and he could put together a bounce-back performance during the 2026-27 campaign.

Danault logged two assists, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Hurricanes in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
Danault had a hand in both of Josh Anderson's tallies in this contest. The 33-year-old Danault has earned seven points (two goals, five assists) over his last five outings. He's up to a total of 10 points, 15 shots on net, 30 hits, 15 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating through 16 playoff games.

Danault scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, added three hits, blocked four shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Hurricanes in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
Danault was active in the first period. He scored the go-ahead goal at 4:04, then set up Alexandre Texier's tally -- the eventual game-winner -- at 8:11. Danault was quiet early in the playoff but has scored in consecutive contests as he starts to get more involved. Through 15 playoff outings, he has two goals, eight points, 15 shots, 28 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating. Danault will continue to work in a middle-six role as a strong defensive center.

Danault scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Monday's 3-2 overtime win over the Sabres in Game 7.
Danault gave the Canadiens a positive start with a tally 4:30 into the contest. This was the center's first goal of the postseason. He's up to six points, 13 shots on net, 25 hits, nine blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 14 playoff outings, with five of those points coming in the second round. Danault will continue to play a key defensive role as the Canadiens turn their attention to the Eastern Conference Finals versus the Hurricanes.
