The Habs bottom 6, where does it rank in the NHL? Assuming everyone is healthy, and that everyone plays their role and to their strengths, do the Habs have one of the best bottom 6 lines in the entire NHL?
Lane Hutson is making it easier and easier for Habs management to keep him up at the NHL level and insert him into the main defensive lineup. With his style of play, potential and offensive skills, could he finish the season as a contender for the Calder? What is the criteria a defenseman must hit to be a nominee or even win the Calder? Could Lane Hutson be the first Montreal Canadien to win the Calder since Ken Dryden (1971)?
Of all of the Habs storylines leading into the new season, which one are we most excited about and going to follow closely?

In this episode, we discuss...
So far, Lane Hutson has been a standout in every game that he has played for the Montreal Canadiens. Whether it was the 2 games VS Detroit or the prospects games, everyone notices when he is on the ice. His edge work and IQ are off the charts good. His skating and mobility is very Quinn Hughes like. Will he make mistakes in his very young career, absolutely, but the pros definitely outweigh the cons with him. The question is, is he ready for a full 82 games at the NHL level?
At the annual Montreal Canadiens golf tournament, Martin St. Louis confirmed that the Habs will not bring in a replacement for Alex Burrows and that MSL will run the powerplay. Will it be more of the same or something completely different?
Vegas odd have been released and have the Montreal Canadiens finishing the season with 76 pts. The exact number they finished with last season. They're wrong! Right? Well, we give our thoughts on it and provide the over and under. As a sub question, we give the over or under whether Dach will post over or under 70 pts (if healthy)
Pacioretty to the Leafs. At this stage of his career, do we care? Should we care?

In this episode, we discuss...
On August 19, 2024, the Montreal Canadiens acquired forward Patrik Laine and 2026 2nd round pick for defenseman Jordan Harris.
Patrik Laine is a 26-year-old big sized winger (6'5") and was drafted 2nd overall in the 2016 NHL draft. He has scored 30+ goals twice and 40+ goals once. He has the ability to be a top line impact forward. When he is focused and engaged, he can change the course of game. He has one of the heaviest shots in the entire NHL and his release is up there with some of the best. He has posted 117 pts in his last 129 games and has a career goal per game average of ~35 goals. From a health perspective, his last few seasons have been a little rough. However, his points production has been very solid on a very bad team, while going through some personal issues.
Jordan Harris was a true professional and by all accounts, a very good person. However, there wasn't any place for him on the Montreal Canadiens roster. We wish him the best of luck.
We have spoken about Laine to the Habs for quite some time now. Admittedly, when the rumors first surfaced up, we did not hate the idea of Laine with the Habs, but we had our reservations and concerns. As time went on, and as we got into the dead part of the offseason, we started to really see the benefits of taking a chance on a player like Laine. You can refer to Episodes 87 and 92 to hear our thoughts on the Laine to the Habs Rumors.
Fast forward to today, the trade happened. Laine is a Hab. Is it a good thing? tune in to find out what we think.
Question(s) of the week: Are you happy the Habs acquired Laine?
For those of you who hated the idea (and even gave us a lot of heat on our previous episode) of seeing the Habs acquire Laine, seeing what they gave up for him, are you ok with the trade?

In this episode, we discuss...
The Montreal Canadiens signed 3 of their RFAs to new contracts. Arber Xhekaj signed for 2 years at a $1.3 million AAV, Justin Barron 2 years at a $1.15 million AAV, and Kaiden Guhle 6 years at a $5.55 million AAV. We give our thoughts on the contracts and what this could mean for the Canadiens going forward. Matt thinks that Guhle getting a 6-year contract instead of 8 is interesting. Tune in to find out why.
There have been a lot of rumors swirling around social media about Patrick Laine and the Montreal Canadiens. We have spoken about Laine and the Montreal Canadiens in the past (episode 87). Has our opinion on Laine changed since then, do we think that Laine for the next 2 years would be a good fit for the Montreal Canadiens. Knowing that he doesn't have to be "The Guy" in Montreal, would that help him to take his game to the next level? We discuss all of that and more.

We welcome Gregory Hamel (SonderNHL) as the newest member of the Get PuckD Podcast.
NHL.com released their projected lineup for the Montreal Canadiens. After analyzing the lineup, we feel that the way they made the lineup feels very lazy. Almost as though they put no real thought into it.
Out of Hutson, Reinbacher and Mailloux, who is most likely to make the team out of camp? Of the players mentioned, when looking at their overall talent and skillset, who is our favorite player?
On another podcast, Michael Pezzetta spoke about the tax situation in Montreal. Basically, he said the "quiet" part out loud. Should the NHL do something to even the playing field between higher taxed teams and teams that operate at a lower tax i.e. Florida, Tampa, Dallas, etc.
Question of the week: Out of Hutson, Reinbacher and Mailloux, who do you think has the highest overall talent, skillset, and toolbox? and between them who is your favorite and why?

In this episode, we discuss...
The Habs have drafted the game breaking talent that they have needed for a very long time. A player who some have said is the highest skilled player to be drafted by the Canadiens since Guy Lafleur. That player is Ivan Demidov. We are not saying that he is the next Guy Lafleur, but we are incredibly excited and happy to even hear those two names brought up in the same conversation. Time will tell, but some have suggested that his floor is a 70-80 pts player, and his ceiling is 100 points. Again, time will tell.
The Canadiens came out as winners in this this year's draft. In addition to drafting Demidov, they also traded up to 21 (from 26) to eventually draft Michael Hage. A player most thought would be drafted between 17-20. He grew up a Habs fan, his parents were/are Habs fans, and some have compared him to Jordan Kyrou. Again, time will tell.
In the 3rd round, they drafted a name that you will all recognize, Koivu. That's right! The Habs drafted Saku Koivu's son, Aatos Koivu. Such a feel-good story right there.
Who could the Canadiens target in the free agency? Who could be a good fit? Given how the draft went, do they and should they go after some free agents?
The Habs traded Johnathan Kovacevic to the New Jersey Devils for a 2026 4th round pick

In this episode, we discuss...
In a scenario where Demidov and Lindstrom are drafted before the Canadiens make their pick, if the best player available is a defenseman, should they draft that defenseman or select the next best forward available (i.e. Igina, Sennecke, Catton)?
If they were to draft a defenseman, does that make Kaiden Guhle expendable? Should and could the Habs consider moving Guhle to get that star top 6 forward?
Subscribe to our YouTube channel @GETPUCKDPodcast
Question(s) of the week:
Would you trade Kaiden Guhle for a star top 6 forward or potential star top 6 forward?
Would YOU trade Guhle and the 26th overall pick to New Jersey for Dawson Mercer and the 10th overall pick?

In this episode, we discuss...
Just ahead of the 2023-24 NHL trade deadline, the Habs acquired the Jets' 1st round pick in exchange for Sean Monahan. We question and wonder what Kent Hughes will do with that pick. Will he trade it in a package for a top 6? Will he use it to move up in the draft? Will he make another Dach/Newhook type of trade? The NHL draft is around the corner, and it won't be long before a decision is made.
Question of the week: If you were Kent Hughes, what would you do with the 26th overall pick?

In this episode, we discuss...
Martin Necas, Patrick Laine and Brady Tkachuk.
The cost to acquire Martin Necas is going to be pretty high. What that cost is, we don't know. We question whether or not Necas should be the priority acquisition for the Canadiens this offseason or are there other options out there. Another name that has hit the rumor mill a little bit has been Patrick Laine, he has the talent and the goal scoring ability, but there are a lot of question marks around him, particularly his health. Brady Tkachuk's name has come up a few times over the last 2 years. The GM keeps squashing those rumors, but you know what they say, "Where there's smoke, there's fire."
Would we add the 5th overall in a trade package for Brady Tkachuk?
Would any one of these players be considered a big splash type of acquisition or is it not enough?
Question of the week
If not Necas or Laine, who would you want the Canadiens to target? (Reply in the comments)

In this episode, we discuss...
If General Manager Brad Treliving from the Toronto Maple Leafs were to call Kent Hughes and offer Mitch Marner for Cole Caufield and the 2024 1st (5th overall), would we do it? Would you do it?
If LA were to call Kent Hughes and offer Pierre-Luc Dubois with some retained cap, in a deal that would include Dvorak or Josh Anderson, should the Habs do it? Would we do it?
What could Slafkovsky's next contract look like? Should they open the bank right away or sign him to a "bridge" deal?
