The 2012–13 Montreal Canadiens season was the 104th season of play for the franchise that was founded on December 4, 1909, and its 96th season in the National Hockey League (NHL). The regular season was reduced from its usual 82 games to 48 due to a lockout.

Off-season

After a disappointing 2011–12 season, the Canadiens started over in the front office. Marc Bergevin was named the new general manager on May 2, 2012. Rick Dudley was then named as the assistant general manager. The search then began for a new head coach and on June 5, Michel Therrien was named the new head coach. This would be Therrien's second stint as the Canadiens head coach (previously coached team from 2000 to 2003) Scott Mellanby was hired as the director of player personnel and Randy Cunneyworth and Randy Ladouceur were relieved of their assistant coaching duties. Some other hockey operations changes included the hiring of Martin Lapointe as director of player development, Patrice Brisebois was hired as a player development coach and on June 15, Gerard Gallant, J. J. Daigneault and Clement Jodoin were added to Montreal's coaching staff as assistant coaches.

Montreal held the third overall pick in the 2012 NHL entry draft and selected Alex Galchenyuk from the Sarnia Sting. |- bgcolor= | 1 || September 23 || Ottawa || Montreal || |- bgcolor= | 2 ||

Playoffs

Main article: 2013 Stanley Cup playoffs

The Montreal Canadiens entered the playoffs as the second seed in the Eastern Conference by winning the Northeast Division with 63 points. The Ottawa Senators earned 56 points during the regular season, losing the tiebreaker to the New York Rangers in regulation + overtime wins (22 to 21) to finish seventh overall in the Eastern Conference. This was the first playoff series between these two teams, and the first playoff series between teams from Montreal and Ottawa since 1928, when the Montreal Maroons defeated the original Ottawa Senators in the Canadian Division Quarterfinals. The two teams split their four-game regular season series. The Senators would defeat the Canadiens in five games.

Notes

The Nashville Predators' second-round pick went to the Montreal Canadiens as a result of a February 17, 2012, trade that sent Hal Gill and a 2013 conditional fifth-round pick (if Blake Geoffrion plays 40 NHL games in 2012–13) to the Predators in exchange for Blake Geoffrion, Robert Slaney and this pick.
The Columbus Blue Jackets' fifth-round pick went to the Montreal Canadiens as a result of a June 29, 2011, trade that sent James Wisniewski to the Blue Jackets in exchange for this pick.
