The Montreal Canadiens have made their final cuts at the end of training camp and Oliver Kapanen has made the NHL. Who is nipping at his tail in the AHL?

Ian Boisvert and Laura Saba analyze the final cuts from Canadiens training camp. Players like Florian Xhekaj and Adam Engstrom were cut, but are not far from starting their NHL careers. Then with Luke Hughes and Jackson Lacombe signing their big contract extensions, where does that leave Lane Hutson and the Habs? There are reasons for both parties to have leverage now. And finally, Ian and Laura try to make sense out of the nonsense in the Battle of Florida.
