His second round in the NHL did not go very well offensively, as he was held without a point in eight games while going minus-7.

  Rotowire Nov 10, 2024

  Richard scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Panthers. This was Richard's second game since he was recalled from AHL Lehigh Valley on Wednesday. The 27-year-old is unlikely to be a long-term part of the Flyers' lineup, but he's playing well enough in a limited role to put pressure on other players. He's been in the lineup over prized rookie Matvei Michkov the last two games, with Richard putting up a goal, four shots on net and three hits in that span.

  Rotowire Mar 17, 2023

  Richard scored a goal on one shot and assisted on another in Thursday's 9-5 loss to Florida. He added one hit and two penalty minutes over 10:26 of ice time Richard recorded his first multi-point game since joining Montreal.

• Canadiens' Anthony Richard: Logs assist in return

  Rotowire Jan 4, 2023

  Richard had an assist and one shot on goal over 11:11 of ice time in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to Nashville. Richard returned to the active lineup after being a healthy scratch the last two games. He skated on the third line and was the secondary helper on Josh Anderson's goal. Richard showed a scoring touch in the AHL before a recent callup to Montreal and could be in line for steady playing time. Montreal head coach Martin St. Louis scratched Joel Armia on Tuesday, and the coach has no shortage of unproductive forwards.

• Canadiens' Anthony Richard: Scores first NHL goal

  Rotowire Dec 22, 2022

  Richard scored a goal on his lone shot on net in Montreal's 2-1 overtime loss to Colorado on Wednesday. He added one hit and two penalty minutes over 9:44 of ice time. Richard's marker came just 1:48 into the game, but Montreal didn't build off that early edge. It was his first goal in two contests this season, as well as his first career NHL point. His hooking penalty early in the third period led to Colorado's power-play goal that tied the contest. Unlike his first game, when Richard skated at times on the second line, he remained on the fourth line Wednesday. Unless Montreal gives Richard a bigger role, the 26-year-old shouldn't be expected to make regular offensive contributions.
