What's up Internet? Last Word SC had to take a break last week (life and work happen sometimes). Matt and Dan are back to catch up on all the news. We discuss Matias Almeyda joining San Jose Earthquakes, the relieving news on the Save the Crew front, and some MLS Season Award hot takes.

The Last Word on Habs Pod is brought to you by the Last Word on Sports Network. Co-hosted by the LWOH Montreal Canadiens team manager Connor Lapalme and Johannes Wheeldon, it is a weekly look at the Habs and features guests from the Last Word on Sports community and others. Join us for smart takes, controversial opinions, and news you can use about the Montreal Canadiens.

Last Word on Habs Pod: Habs Home Opener

On this weeks episode, our hosts discuss the Canadiens home opener. How did the pre-game ceremonies stack up to other home openers? Was it necessary to also include a tribute to the 1993 Habs?

Connor and Johannes then discuss the actual hockey. The home opener looked like an all too familiar scene for Johannes, while Connor saw some reason for optimism. Both hosts agreed that Saturday night's win against Pittsburgh was an entertaining watch. The real question was why did Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby look so disinterested during their shootout attempts? Johannes examines this especially, drawing from his extensive beer league experience.

After discussing their winners and losers this week (Connor doesn't cheat this week!), Connor and Johannes talk about the Habs pending roster issues. They have too many bodies and not enough roster spots.

All this and the Habs power play issues, who will play with Shea Weber and why Connor is so upset with the Laval Rocket and more.

TUNE IN!!

Last Word on Habs Pod: Promising Start

For the second episode of the season, our hosts examine the Canadiens promising start. The Habs have looked exciting and fast through tow games, but is their style of play sustainable for 82 games?

Johannes and Connor give their winners and loser for the week. Both hosts have the same loser and Connor cheats for his first ever winner.

The Karl Alzner situation is then discussed. Connor and Johannes both agree the Alzner has not played well enough to earn a roster spot, despite his salary. Johannes has a gut feeling that Alzner might draw in for the Habs home opener, while Connor really doesn't think so.

Habs rookie Jesperi Kotkaniemi has looked pretty good to start the season. Will he play past nine games? Spoilers: YES. Will he with the Habs all season though?

Habs home opener is on Thursday against the Kings, can the Habs keep up their strong play? Only one way to find out!

All this and Canadian Thanksgiving wishes, American Supreme Court lament and Connor discusses who he will be keeping an eye on in Laval.

TUNE IN!!!
