Last Word on Habs Pod Final Nail in the Montreal Canadiens Coffin

This week the guys commiserate over the Habs four-game losing streak. It essentially ends all hope for the Habs making the playoffs. It also showed the guys (and Habs fans in general) the gap between the Habs and true Cup contenders.

Then the guys take a look at the Habs under Marc Bergevin and what his plans seem to be and what the guys think they should be. They also talk about what Bergevin should do heading into the trade deadline and beyond. Johannes also wonders what a guy has to do to get fired in Montreal.

All this and just losers this week, fan expectations and memories, Habs fragility, the week ahead and much much more.

TUNE IN!

Discussing what it means for each team and how it affects their season outlooks going forward. Chace wonders what Leon Draisaitl will do now that he is firmly in the spotlight.

Last Word on Habs Pod: Montreal Canadiens Big Push

The guys are back! After a few weeks off Connor and Johannes are back to dig into the Habs since the All-Star break. There is plenty to talk about with the Habs on a roll and pushing towards the playoffs.

The guys quickly go over the last two weeks of Habs games. The team has played well, going 7-3 in their last 10 to vault themselves (somewhat) back into the playoff picture. The guys discuss if this recent push is enough to actually excited about the possibility of the playoffs.

Johannes then drops three questions on Connor. First, he asks if the Habs were wise to leak that Jeff Petry and Tomas Tatar are not available at the deadline. The second question is if the Habs should sign Tatar or Max Domi. Finally, Johannes asks about a high-level executive suggesting Cole Caufield and Alexander Romanov will be on the Canadiens roster next year. It sparks some interesting debate and answers.

All this and winners and losers, Habs development, trade deadline, the schedule ahead and much more.

TUNE IN!

What's up Internet? This week on Last Word Soccer Club Radio, Matt and Dan wing it with not much to talk about. We discuss the USWNT beating Costa Rica and Panama by a combined 14-0 in Olympic Qualifying. The lads acknowledge the existence of a 1-0 win for the USMNT against Costa Rica. Oh and Matt mentioned the CBA but is still pessimistic.

Then Dan sends us down a silly MLS Twitter rabbit hole. We have some fun discussing some 2020 MLS Cup odds from betting agencies. The guys have hot takes for who's a good bet and a bad one and have a few laughs towards the bottom end of the list.

Join Andy, Jim & Damian as they discuss the fallout from the Australian Open. Sofia Kenin and Novak Djokovic's triumphs are dissected along with some talk of what repercussions the result will have on the tennis world going forward.
