This Week’s Show

Segment 1: Week in Review, Habs News, League News

After a tough loss to Detroit in the Habs final home game of 2019, the Montreal Canadiens headed out on the road for the Western Canadian road trip. They bounced back with a pair of wins over the Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames. Rick and Joe discuss the “Road Warriors” Montreal Canadiens.
In a press conference this week, Marc Bergevin said he would not “mortgage the future” to make an improvement to this team.
Taylor Hall was dealt to Arizona this week for a package of picks and prospects that was headlined by prospect defenceman, Kevin Bahl. This was a trade that sparked a lot of debate on social media, including amongst Habs fans.
We check in with the Laval Rocket as they have dealt with some injuries to Alex Belzile and Charles Hudon.
Michael McCarron will most likely be facing some supplemental discipline for his actions against the Utica Comets.
After being sent down following his first career NHL win, Cayden Primeau’s struggles in the AHL have continued.

Segment 2: The Big Topic

“Culture” is a word thrown around quite a lot in professional sports. For a team to be successful for a prolonged period of time, the culture that surrounds that club needs to be a positive one. Rick and Joe take a look at the culture that has surrounded the Montreal Canadiens since Marc Bergevin has taken over as the General Manager of the organization.
