The Montreal Canadiens continue to build one of the most intriguing young cores in the NHL, and they're doing something that almost no other NHL team is willing to do.

On today's episode of The Starr & D'Amico Show, we break down Macklin Celebrini's new 5-year, $94 million contract and compare it to the Canadiens' long-term salary cap philosophy. While other teams are handing out massive contracts early, Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton appear committed to building around Lane Hutson, Ivan Demidov, Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield and Juraj Slafkovsky with smart, sustainable, cap-friendly deals whenever possible.

Is Montreal creating a blueprint for long-term Stanley Cup contention? Could their patient approach allow them to stay competitive while keeping flexibility to add elite talent?
