This Week’s Show

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

  • The often understated Carey Price made some rather intriguing comments regarding the current state of the Montreal Canadiens and his career. Rick and Joe dissect the comments made by the Canadiens franchise netminder. 
  • It was reported by Alexandre Pratt of La Presse that Jake Gardiner rejected a three-year $15.75 million contract offer from the Canadiens before accepting the deal offered by Carolina.

  • Marc Bergevin shares his thoughts on the Canadiens as training camp begins. 
  • Rick and Joe take a look back at the Rookie Tournament in Belleville before turning our attention to Habs Training Camp. 

Segment 2: The Big Topic.

  • Training Camp is officially underway! With that comes quite a few questions and concerns that Rick and Joe are going to try and tackle. Will Bergevin’s additions be enough? Will Drouin realize his potential? Is Jesperi Kotkaniemi ready for more responsibility? Will the youth movement make an impact, as suggested by Bergevin? These are just some of the questions Rick and Joe will tackle in this rapid fire Big Topic!
