Episode 84: Habs' Post-Season Starts Now

April 17, 2024 17:49 - 47 minutes - 43.8 MB

In this episode, we discuss... The Habs' 2023-24 season is done. The Canadiens played their 82nd game VS the Detroit Red Wings and lost in the shootout. While their place in the standings is very similar to last year, it was certainly a season full of bright spots. Suzuki, Caufield, Slafkovsky, and Newhook all had career years. The goaltending situation has cleared up and the 3-goalie carousel ended. Lane Hutson and Logan Mailloux both played their first NHL games and produced. and so on. I...

Episode 83: Is Cole Caufield's Season a Disappointment?

March 27, 2024 17:06 - 34 minutes - 31.6 MB

In this episode, we discuss... This season, the Habs have accumulated a lot of points in the standings with their no quit, competitive play. With their most recent victory against the Stanley cup contending Colorado Avalanche. Given where the Habs are at in their rebuild, is it frustrating to see them win VS teams that they "should" lose to? Or are we happy with their compete and progression as a team? Caufield's game is more well-rounded than it has been in previous seasons. It sems that ...

Episode 82: Jake Allen Trade, Cap Space, Marchessault a Good Fit?

March 12, 2024 17:06 - 41 minutes - 38.2 MB

In this episode, we discuss... The Habs traded Jake Allen to the New Jersey Devils for a 2025 conditional 3rd round pick and they retained 50% of his salary. Was this a good trade for the Canadiens? Minnesota pulled their goalie in overtime to ice 4 players. This strategy led to a 4-3 win over the Nashville Predators. This was a risky decision by the Minnesota Wild. If Nashville would've scored, it would have resulted in the Wild losing out on the OT point (aka the loser point). Should mor...

Episode 81: Montreal Canadiens Trade Deadline 2023-24

March 04, 2024 17:54 - 46 minutes - 42.3 MB

In this episode, we discuss... Should the Montreal Canadiens qualify Jesse Ylonen or is this his last season with Habs? If they do qualify him, where does he fit? There are 6-7 players who are currently on the Habs whose names have been circulating as potential trade chips for the year's NHL Trade deadline. We go through each of the names. Using some of the mock trades or suggested packages that were brought up by our fellow Habs fans, we determine whether they make any sense and if they a...

Episode 80: Is Kirby Dach YOUR 2nd Line Center?

February 22, 2024 18:19 - 41 minutes - 37.7 MB

In this episode, we discuss... We debate whether we have seen enough from Kirby Dach to cement him as the Habs 2nd line center for next year or should Kent Hughes continue to search the market for another center? Since Dach is there, and the Habs are loaded with defensive prospects, have their priorities and focus changed to another position i.e. RW? When Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton look at their "whiteboard", do they have Suzuki, Caufield, and Slafkovsky penciled in as the automatic 1st li...

Episode 79: A "Big Offseason Splash" for the Habs Top 6?

February 08, 2024 19:26 - 43 minutes - 39.9 MB

In this episode, we discuss... We try and look into the future, specifically the offseason. We see that the Habs have a lot of assets to work with to potentially make a "big splash" for their top 6. Which team(s) would Vito, Dave and Matt want Kent Hughes to reach out to, to see if a deal can be made for a specific player (ASSUMING the target player is even available) Should Kent Hughes put an end to the 3-goalie carousel and lower his ask? How much longer can this go on? Subscribe to our...

Episode 78: Sean Monahan Traded to Winnipeg

February 02, 2024 18:16 - 30 minutes - 27.7 MB

In this episode, we discuss... The Montreal Canadiens have traded Sean Monahan to the Winnipeg Jets for a 2024 1st round pick and a conditional 2027 3rd round pick. We provide our thoughts and reactions and question what Kent Hughes' next move is might be. Did they get enough? Could the Habs have waited? Question of the week: From the Habs perspective, did they get enough for Monahan? Subscribe to our YouTube channel @GETPUCKDPodcast #gohabsgo #habs #canadiens #gojetsgo #winnipegjets #...

Episode 77: Is the "Honeymoon" Over?

January 24, 2024 20:03 - 38 minutes - 35.5 MB

In this episode, we discuss... We discuss whether the "Honeymoon" is over for Jeff Gorton, Kent Hughes, and Martin St-Louis. On and off the ice, can we start questioning some of their decisions? Most recently the Habs waives Mitchell Stephens, leaving Martin St-Louis to ice 3 centers VS the Ottawa Senators. In that same game, St-Louis played Pezzetta for less than 2 minutes. Some of these decisions are confusing and hard to explain. Matt presents a "fictitious" defenseman profile and based...

Episode 76: Zegras, the Answer to the Habs Offensive Woes?

January 18, 2024 16:55 - 40 minutes - 37.1 MB

In this episode, we discuss.. Apparently, there is rumor going around that there is a gentleman's agreement between Habs GM Kent Hughes and Sean Monahan. The rumor suggests that Kent Hughes will trade Sean Monahan to a playoff contending team at the trade deadline. Is this the right move? Should the Habs try and convince Monahan to stick around and be one of the key leaders of the team? Another rumor that has gone around and does not seem to want to go away, mainly because of Habs fans and...

Episode 75: Nylander Contract, Xhekaj, and Habs

January 08, 2024 19:03 - 36 minutes - 33.8 MB

In this episode, we discuss... William Nylander's contract. Should the Leafs have signed him? They now have 4 players earning 11 million dollars or more. Can they actually win a cup and be successful with 4 players eating up most of their cap space. Arber Xhekaj is playing really well for the Laval Rocket. Is he in the wrong league. Is he a player that other teams might try and trade for? What is his floor and his ceiling? The Habs are in a very familiar situation in the NHL standings. ...

Episode 74: TSN's Worst Top 50-U24 List of All Time?

November 23, 2023 19:16 - 39 minutes - 35.9 MB

In this episode, we discuss... TSN has released their top 50 under 24 list. In our opinion, there are many players who are on this list that probably should not be there or should not be ahead of certain players who are already in the NHL. Additionally, there are players that are currently ranked a little too high or ahead of players that are already achieving greatness. Is this TSN's worst rankings list of all time? Things are not going well in Edmonton. We are not even 20 games into the s...

Episode 73: "Three's a Crowd"

November 13, 2023 18:40 - 39 minutes - 36.1 MB

In this episode, we discuss... Josh Anderson has been struggling to score and it hasn't been for a lack of trying. He is certainly "snake bitten", but what can the Habs do to really get him going? Over the weekend, Elliotte Friedman reported that the Habs are close to an extension with Samuel Montembeault. Is this the right choice? What is the right cap hit and term for him? And does this mean that Allen or Primeau are on the move? Slafkovsky has been playing well. Despite his low numbers o...

Episode 72: Slafkovsky, AHL or NHL?

November 01, 2023 17:36 - 33 minutes - 30.7 MB

In this episode, we discuss... Sean Monahan is currently playing at a point per game pace. He has fit in quite well with the Habs since last they acquired him. While his injuries are still a concern, assuming that they are behind him, should the Habs consider extending him or trading him at the deadline? Slafkovsky is passing the eye test. However, the fans that are focusing primarily on analytics have suggested that he should be demoted to the AHL. Some have even thrown out the word "bust"....

Episode 71: Are the Habs Cursed?

October 19, 2023 16:30 - 39 minutes - 36.1 MB

In this episode, we discuss... On only his 2nd game of the 2023-24 season, Kirby Dach suffered a season ending injury and requires surgery to repair a torn ACL and MCL. This is a big blow to the Canadiens, Kirby Dach and for Habs fans. Many of us, including the Habs and Dach himself, expected big things from him this season. How will the Habs move forward without him? Kaiden Guhle did not finish last game and the latest update is that he is day-to-day with an upper body injury. The injuries...

Episode 70: Habs 2023-24 Season Preview

October 11, 2023 18:27 - 41 minutes - 38.2 MB

In this episode, we discuss... The 2023-24 NHL season has started and the Montreal Canadiens play their first game of the season against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Currently, the Habs have 3 goalies on their 23 man roster. Kent Hughes stated that if Primeau were to be placed on waivers, he is certain he would get claimed. Jake Allen is set to face the Toronto Maple Leafs and some find it very interesting that the Habs are going with Allen to tend the twine for the first game of the season. Is...

Season 3 Premiere Episode 69: Norlinder, Waivers, Nylander, and more

October 03, 2023 17:09 - 38 minutes - 34.8 MB

In this episode, we discuss... Whether or not Norlinder and Mailloux have done enough to merit a spot on the Habs opening night roster. Heineman and Ylonen have had a solid camp so far, but the Habs have too many forwards. Should Kent Hughes consider waiving Joel Armia and/or Tanner Pearson to make room for them? Are we in the worst era for goaltending in the NHL and in Habs history?The Habs are missing elite offensive talent, without factoring the NHL draft, and with the current assets the...

Episode 68: Casey DeSmith Traded for Tanner Pearson

September 20, 2023 18:00 - 34 minutes - 31.2 MB

In this episode, we discuss... It's official, Paul Byron announced his retirement and is hanging up his skates. The Habs have hired him in a player development role. Paul Byron deserves our respect. We share our most memorable moment of his career. Was he the best waiver pick up of all time? The Habs have traded Casey DeSmith to the Vancouver Canucks for Tanner Pearson and a 2025 3rd round pick. Was this a good move? We give our thoughts and opinions about this trade. Subscribe to our chan...

Episode 67: The "A" to Matheson, Shaw-Subban Drama, Habs Rookie Camp and "Scorched Earth" Takes

September 14, 2023 17:10 - 37 minutes - 34.6 MB

In this episode, we discuss... The Habs name Mike Matheson as the new alternate captain to Nick Suzuki. Was this the right choice? The Andrew Shaw drama. Andrew Shaw targeted and bashed PK Subban, but WHY? The Habs rookie camp started, we predict who has the best chance to make the Habs roster out of the camp or will end up playing for the Laval Rocket. We each provide a "scorched earth" Habs take for the upcoming season. Subscribe to our channel  @GETPUCKDPodcast  0:00 - Intro 0:13 - H...

Episode 66: Habs 2023-24: Time for Progression?

September 06, 2023 18:25 - 35 minutes - 32.5 MB

In this episode, we discuss...Dave is back and he does not miss a beat. We debate whether or not the Habs would be better off finishing in the bottom 5 again or progress in the standings. If they stay healthy, are they actually a bottom 5 team? The NHL pre-season is around the corner. Is the pre-season too long? Who are some possible stand outs for the pre-season that may earn a chance at playing the first 10 games of the NHL season. Does Slafkovsky progress this year? If so, what could his ...

Episode 65: Jeff Petry Conclusion, Habs Untradeables

August 16, 2023 19:45 - 38 minutes - 35 MB

In this episode, we discuss... Jeff Petry, who was recently re-acquired by the Montreal Canadiens has been traded again by his former team. He has been traded to the Detroit Redwings for Gustav Lindstrom and a conditional 2025 4th round pick. Matt and Vito break down and analyze all of the trades that have involved Jeff Petry and the Montreal Canadiens. We present the Jeff Petry trade tree which starts back in 2015. Kent Hughes is getting the reputation of being a smart, respectful, and cl...

Episode 64: Jeff Petry... The Gift That Keeps on Giving

The Habs trade Mike Hoffman and Rem Pitlick to the Pittsburgh Penguins for Jeff Petry, Casey DeSmith, Nathan Legaré and Pittsburgh's 2025 2nd round pick. We break down the trade for the Habs and what may or may not happen with Jeff Petry. Will Kent Hughes move him before the season or will he wear the Habs jersey once again. Tune in as we break down this blockbust...

Episode 63: Who are the Habs Biggest Rivals Today?

August 03, 2023 13:19 - 42 minutes - 39 MB

In this episode, we discuss... Matt and Vito question whether or not the Habs current rivals are the same as their past rivals. Are the Bruins still up there as a rival? Putting our biases aside, we ask ourselves whether there is a player from each rival that we "like" and/or respect. We discuss and debate over Scott Wheeler's 2020 NHL re-draft. He recently posted his list for a 2020 NHL re-draft. On his list he has 3 current Habs players being drafted in the 1st round. One of those player...

June 06, 2023 18:00 - 27 minutes - 25 MB

In this episode, we discuss... Cole Caufield signs his extension with the Habs for 8 years at 7.85 AAV. We give our thoughts and reaction to the news. It was important for the Canadiens to sign him to less or the same as Nick Suzuki. The Habs were clear that they would not sign him to more than the captain. Is this a hard ceiling?
