  • With hockey back, the guys briefly take you back to Episode 75 of the Canadiens Connection podcast, the episode that took place after the NHL’s announcement to pause the season. 
  • Alexander Romanov has concluded his quarantine period and was finally able to join his teammates and hit the ice for a practice with his new club. 
  • Dale Weise heading to Switzerland? Amid rumours of an agreement with Lausanne HC of the National League in Switzerland, the forward denied that he has signed a contract and claimed his focus is on earning another contract with the Montreal Canadiens. 
  • 0 out of 16 NHL.com writers picked the Habs to beat the Penguins, but former Canadiens defenceman, P.K. Subban, said he believes Carey Price can steal the series. 
  • They said what? Jonathan Drouin describes the in-arena atmosphere, Shea Weber discusses the team’s enthusiasm, Claude Julien talks defence and Alexander Romanov expresses happiness and describes his role.
