From Failing Hands

This week, Mike and John addressed the Toronto Maple Leafs apparatus from the media’s love affair with the team to the fractured relationships that are starting to become more and more visible. The Montreal media were given some rare praise and the boys ended things with their NHL Playoffs second round predictions and the second instalment of the 2018-19 player "pizza" ratings; some were not edible to say the least.

This week, John and Mike cover everything from the new Twitter bracket challenge that features the best moments from the 2018-19 Habs season to where we see Laval Rocket head coach Joel Bouchard in five years. They also get into a fun segment where they rate each member of the team based on statistics and their own personal opinions, in a very similar fashion to a popular pizza review show. You also do not want miss the guys get into one of the more intense conversations they've ever had on a rather hot topic these days!

This week, Mike and John soaked in Ryan Poehling’s mind blowing first game with the Habs and what that must have meant to him and the fan base. They then went through the season ending pressers and to the shock of everyone, did not hold back when it came to the media. They broke down their non-Hab playoff rules of engagement and narrowed down their first round bracket. To top things off, they made a very special announcement about the very special season that just ended; or did it?

To celebrate the 25th (you read correctly, 25th) episode, the guys had none other than Senior Vice President of Communications & Public Affairs for the Montreal Canadiens, Mr. Paul Wilson. Paul shared incredible insight into his day-to-day work, the challenge of orchestrating the media demands on the team as well as what the Montreal Canadiens mean to the city and province. Mike and John also went deep sea diving into topics such as the Byron/Weegar fight and the notion of parity gone mad. They actually take different paths for possibly the first time ever and it’s riveting stuff.

This week, Mike and John were treated to a truly memorable conversation with none other than rising YouTube star Matt (Scotian Canadien). Matt walked the boys through his motivation for starting his Habs-themed channel and provided incredible insight into the current team and what the future holds. You won’t want to miss what was the first of hopefully many conversations with the Scotian Canadien.
