In addition, the coronavirus concerns still affect the college and NFL scheduling and the Washington franchise may have sunk to (yet another) new low in the Snyder era.

Alex and Chace are back for another week of hockey. This was recorded a few weeks back, however, the content stays the same. Alex and Chace are drafting players to a team based on what the next five seasons will look like. The goal is like any NHL team's goal, to win the Stanley Cup. This Fantasy Draft has three rounds where the guys need to factor in all kinds of things.

What positions are the best to take? When will the first goalie be selected in the draft? How to balance a team roster and the new players? Balancing young vs old as well as the potential that a player could bring to the table. Taking in all of these things are important when looking at what teams may need. You can also find the whole draft here. Who do you think went too high or too low? Did Alex and Chace miss anyone completely? Tune in for all of this and more, with the MnM Hockey Podcast!

Last Word on Habs Pod: Montreal Canadiens Return to Action

On this week's episode, the guys reconnect after a few months in quarantine, so its time for a little catchup.

The conversation then shifts to hockey where they discuss the very interesting draft lottery results. One of the play-in teams now has a chance to win the number one overall pick. It's a big year to land that pick as consensus top pick, Alexis Lafreniere is considered to be a generational talent. The Habs are one of those teams with a 1/8 chance of landing the Quebec native, while his ability is not in question, the guys wonder if it's fair to thrust the type of pressure he will face in Montreal on an 18-year-old.

Then the guys talk about the return to NHL action, coming August 1st. They discuss how to responsibly return to action and if that is even possible. Players, coaches, and the league all need to play a pivotal role in keeping everyone safe.

Part of the return to play and the 'NHL playoffs' is the Montreal Canadiens playing the Pittsburgh Penguins in a best of five play-in series. What chances do our hosts think the Habs have of making it past the Penguins?

All this and Max Domi, the state of the world, COVID-19 contingencies, journalistic integrity, and much much more.

TUNE IN!
