  • The left side of the defence continues to be a question mark for the Canadiens. Claude Julien says they’re doing their best for now, but Elliotte Friedman reported the Canadiens “took a look” at Juuso Riikola of the Pittsburgh Penguins, and reports suggest the Canadiens have also had pro scouts at San Jose Sharks games.

Segment 2: The Big Topic

  • Winners & Losers returns to the Canadiens Connection Podcast! Rick and Joe share their thoughts on what worked for the Canadiens this week and what didn’t. This week includes Victor Mete, Claude Julien and the Habs team defence/penalty kill!
