Analysis:Travis Moen isn't much of a scorer, with 16 points in 46 games this season and he sees almost no power-play time, so this is more a note for Habs followers looking for a healthy lineup as the team tries to avoid falling completely out of the playoff chase. This is a team that could be selling as the trade deadline approaches.
News:Travis Moen (upper body) will be a game time decision for Tuesday's game against Pittsburgh, Renaud Lavoie of RDS.ca reports.

Analysis:Travis Moen has been getting some early-season work on Montreal's scoring lines and has responded with three points through four games.

News:Travis Moen has been moved to the Habs' second line for Saturday night's game against Colorado, the Montreal Gazette reports.
Analysis: Early-season injuries as well as ineffective scoring have forced coach Jacques Martin into some early-season lineup tweaking.

News:Travis Moen will continue to skate on the Canadiens' top line after the team lost Michael Cammalleri (leg) in Sunday's win over Winnipeg, the Canadian Press reports.

News:Travis Moen filled in on a top line after Michael Cammalleri left Sunday's game with a skate-cut above his knee and had a goal and an assist in the Canadiens' 5-1 win over the Jets.
Analysis:Travis Moen may not remain with Tomas Plekanec and Erik Cole long term, but for one night he looked like a top-six forward. His breakaway and deke of Winnipeg goalie Ondre Pavelec was a nice goal, but we expect the big guy to back on the fourth line come Thursday at home against Calgary.

News: Moen (illness) sat out Monday's practice, Dave Stubbs of The Gazette reports.

News: Moen, who has been pressed into action as a top-six forward, scored his second goal in as many games Tuesday night in Montreal's loss to Washington.
Analysis: It was only Moen's fifth goal of the season, but he'll continue to see good minutes as Max Pacioretty's replacement. Added to Pacioretty's injury, the Canadiens lost Tomas Plekanec and Jeff Halpern to lower-body injuries Tuesday, so Moen is in a good spot right now.
News: Moen was moved up to the line with Brian Gionta and Scott Gomez for Saturday's win over Pittsburgh, the Montreal Gazette reports.
Analysis: The move to Moen paid off as he scored Montreal's second goal of the game, with both Gionta and Gomez assisting. The Canadiens are looking for someone to replace Max Pacioretty (concussion, neck) on the Gomez line, and it looks like Moen for now. Benoit Pouliot got the first crack, but his poor performance Thursday has him skating on the fourth line.

Analysis: Moen has just seven points in 35 games, predominantly seeing action on the Canadiens' fourth line.
News: Moen is no longer skating on the top line with Scott Gomez and Brian Gionta.
Analysis: We never really expected this to last, as it was more of a trial to shake things up, and the Habs now have Tom Pyatt skating with Gionta and Gomez. As for Moen, he's back to fourth-line treatment with Lars Eller and Dustin Boyd. Moen has just one point through five games.
News: Moen will skate on the first line with Scott Gomez and Brian Gionta on Friday in Buffalo, the Montreal Gazette reports.
Analysis: Moen only has 75 points in 446 career NHL games, so there's no need to act unless the line sticks and he starts getting lots of power play time, both of which seem like a bit of a long shot over the long haul. Still, if you're in an ultra-deep league, playing with Gomez and Gionta is certainly better than slumming on the fourth line.
News: Canadiens LW Travis Moen was back in the lineup on Thursday against the Panthers after missing one game with a facial laceration. He had no points in 13:02 of ice time and finished at plus-1.
Analysis: We didn't expect Moen to miss much time with the injury, and he ended up being out for just one game. The 27-year-old Canadian remains more of a checking-line presence when active. Moen is best used in Fantasy leagues that reward heavily for PIM and short-handed stats.
News: Canadiens LW Travis Moen did not play in Wednesday's game against the Sabres after suffering a facial laceration on Monday. Moen was cut by the skate of Ottawa's Matt Cullen.

He also spent 12 minutes in the penalty box on three infractions, including a 5-minute major for fighting Jay Rosehill in the first.
Analysis: Toronto lured Moen in the offseason with a three-year contract. They love his energy off the checking line and hopes he continues the same intensity he showed Thursday. Unfortunately, we don't think he will emerge as an elite scorer any time soon. Moen is best used in Fantasy leagues that reward heavily for PIM and short-handed stats.
News: The Montreal Canadiens have signed forward Travis Moen to a three-year contract on Friday. "Travis Moen is a character player," Canadiens general manager Bob Gainey said in a statement. "He is versatile, and he plays hard. His size and style will contribute to adding physicality to our team."
Analysis: Moen started last season in Anaheim, but was traded to San Jose where he had three goals and two assists in 19 games. He had four goals, seven assists and 77 penalty minutes with the Ducks. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound left wing blocked 78 shots and had 171 hits in 82 games last season. In five NHL seasons, the 27-year-old has 56 points (29 goals, 27 assists) and 487 penalty minutes with the Chicago Blackhawks, Anaheim and San Jose.

Analysis: Moen has 14 points this season and has only low-end appeal outside of leagues that reward heavily for PIM and short-handed stats.
News: Sharks LW Travis Moen scored a goal and tallied an assist during Tuesday's game against the Wild. Moen, playing his second game with the Sharks since being traded by Anaheim, joined Joe Thornton and Jonathan Cheechoo on a new first line. Moen chipped a puck out of the corner about four minutes in, and it took a wicked hop after making contact with Thornton and sailed softly above Niklas Backstrom's glove. Later, Moen put picked up a perfect rebound and slammed it past Backstrom after the goalie denied a short-handed breakaway attempt.
Analysis: The Sharks really needed a jolt Tuesday after suffering a four-game losing streak, so coach Todd McLellan put the gritty Moen with Thornton and Cheechoo. He could stay there for awhile as long as San Jose is winning and it could also boost his Fantasy value. But we don't see Moen becoming a Fantasy superstar. He still has low-end appeal outside of leagues that reward heavily for PIM and short-handed stats.
News: Forward Travis Moen and defenseman Kent Huskins won't play for the Sharks on Thursday night against the Wild after joining the club in a trade with Anaheim Wednesday. They're expected to play Saturday at Vancouver.
Analysis: The Sharks acquired a gritty checking-line forward in Moen, but he isn't expected to crack the top-six down the stretch. It helps Moen's plus/minus rating as he moves to San Jose, but he is still more of a flier in Fantasy leagues that reward heavily for PIM and short-handed stats.

Analysis: Moen has five points in his first nine games this season. Moen plays on the checking line with the Ducks, but he's doing more scoring than most of the top-line Ducks.

He is also a decent option in leagues that reward heavily for short-handed stats.

He didn't have a point in 17:59 of ice time and finished at minus-1. He didn't take a shot on net.
Analysis: The Ducks are a little thin on the left side of the ice and they are currently trying Chris Kunitz on the second line with Brendan Morrison and Teemu Selanne. Moen might not stay on the top line very long, and the fact he isn't taking many shots is not good news for Fantasy owners. He remains just a low-end Fantasy reserve at this time.

News: Travis Moen and Ryan Getzlaf each scored goals to help beat the Detroit Red Wings 4-2 on Sunday night.
Analysis: Despite the goal, Moen is only worth using in the largest of Fantasy leagues at this point.
News: Travis Moen was scoreless in Sunday's game against the Wild with a minus-1 rating in 16:52 of ice time.
Analysis: Moen is in the midst of a six-game goal drought and he has just one assist during the span. He is only worth a look as a reserve in larger Fantasy leagues which heavily reward penalty minutes at this point.
News: The Los Angeles Times reports that Travis Moen will be out two to three weeks with a shoulder strain suffered against Edmonton Wednesday.
Analysis: Moen has been playing on the main checking line with Samuel Pahlsson and Jonathan Hedstrom. The Ducks called up Dustin Penner to take his place on the roster. Penner played six games with the Ducks earlier this season and scored his first two goals Nov. 30 against Phoenix.
