The strange use of Alexandre Texier is causing a stir
Alexandre Texier has seen a lot of action in recent months. Between October 8 and November 19, he played in only eight of the St. Louis Blues’ 20 games.

- Alexandre Texier has been in the NHL headlines with a notable move in 2025, signing a one-year contract with the Montreal Canadiens after leaving the St. Louis Blues. This was reported by multiple outlets in November 2025 and described as a depth addition for Montreal during a period of injuries on the roster.[1][2]
- Since then, Texier’s status has centered on his role with the Canadiens, including reports through early 2026 about injuries and his availability for games, with occasional updates on his return timeline and on-ice utilization.[5][6][7]
- As of May 2026, coverage from major outlets (Fox Sports, CBS Sports) continues to track his activity and status, including discussions of his participation in games and any lingering health considerations.[6][5]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest articles from specific outlets (e.g., The Hockey News, ESPN, CBC) and summarize any new developments, including contract status, injury updates, and current role with Montreal.
