ROCKET SPORTS MEDIA | MONTREAL, QC. — Welcome to the Canadiens Connection via Rocket Sports Radio. This engaging podcast featured on All Habs Hockey Magazine connects Habs fans with their beloved team from a plugged-in source they know and trust.

This Week’s Show

Corey Perry nominated for Bill Masterton Trophy. Jesse Ylonen made his NHL debut this week. Canadiens sign Rafael Harvey-Pinard to a two-year entry-level contract.

Segment 2: Are the Habs a Team on the Rise?
