We begin today's episode with some discussion on Montreal Canadiens defenseman Mattias Norlinder and we cover how he is figuring it out through three games with the Laval Rocket after almost being written out of the Habs' future entirely. We follow it up with a preview of the Habs games against the Arizona Coyotes, who are fresh off a win against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Finally, we take a look around the NHL Atlantic Division and how the other teams are faring. Yes, we enjoy talking about the Maple Leafs situation of late.

Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

The Montreal Canadiens AHL affiliate, the Laval Rocket kicked off their season last weekend, and the hosts are going to break down the expectations and thoughts around the upcoming season. What can fans expect in terms of prospects on the team besides Jesse Ylönen and Rafaël Harvey-Pinard? Will Cayden Primeau finally assert himself as a top prospect full time?

Following that the hosts jump into questions from the previously delayed mailbag! What does Cole Caufield's next contract look like, and will the cap rising this summer alter the plans for his deal? Who is currently running the Habs pro scouting group, and how good of a job are they doing? What do the Habs do with Arber Xhekaj when the team is fully healthy on defence?

Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

The Montreal Canadiens played an extremely entertaining game on Monday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins, winning in overtime thanks to a huge game from a number of players, including Cole Caufield. Despite playing well the team still had to overcome a two-goal deficit and did so with aplomb, capping the comeback off with Kirby Dach's first goal as a Hab to seal the win in overtime. The hosts break it all down and more!

Speaking of players stepping up, Kaiden Guhle dominated the game on Monday and looks like a 10 year NHL vet along the blue line. Scott and Laura take a peek at how Guhle played against the Penguins, and at his incredible metrics that back it all up as well!

Finally, the defence of the Canadiens that was expected to get lit up night in and night out to start this season, has surprisingly put together a strong start despite four rookies playing heavy minutes. While Kaiden Guhle has been a standout, the play of Jordan Harris, Arber Xhekaj and Jonathan Kovacevic also shouldn't be overlooked. Scott and Laura take a look at how things can only get better once Joel Edmundson and Mike Matheson rejoin the team in the coming months as well.

The Montreal Canadiens lost two games in a row over the weekend, but since it is Monday we do have a 3 Up and 3 Down as always. We start out by discussing the games as a whole and general improvements that need to be made. In the second segment, we discuss who hasn't had a great three games, namely Mike Hoffman, Alex Burrows, and David Savard. Finally, we discuss the 3 Up, and we actually had five players to praise: Cole Caufield, Jake Allen, Sean Monahan, Kaiden Guhle, and Kirby Dach.

The Montreal Canadiens have beat the Toronto Maple Leafs, and we love to see it, folks! We recap the first game of the season between these two teams, and focus on the positive play of players like Cole Caufield, Kirby Dach, Sean Monahan, Jordan Harris, and Kaiden Guhle. We discuss the nitpick things we did not like about the defense. Finally, we talk about Carey Price and how the writing is on the wall regarding his career but that he is still hoping for a miracle.

Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

Montreal's lines appear to be set for their debut against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday night. Scott and Laura take a look at the lines and defensive pairs ahead of the game and what we can expect against their rivals on Opening Night.

Speaking of the lineup, one of Mike Hoffman or Jonathan Drouin will be a healthy scratch potentially against Toronto. In a real no-win situation what is Martin St-Louis going to do? The hosts look at the options and how both have pros and cons on the composition of the Habs lineup against the Leafs.

Also, TSN released a video of the Habs calling out their fellow teammates all in the name of fun, so naturally Scott and Laura are going to break down the best answers from the Habs and get to the bottom of who really is the biggest Taylor Swift fan on the team.

Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

The opening night roster for the Montreal Canadiens is set for their game against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday...Sort of.

Before diving into some of the injury-related questions facing the Habs, the hosts take a look at who made the 23 man roster, and who was sent down to the Laval Rocket on Monday afternoon. What do the hosts expect from this lineup, and is there more flexibility than we initially expected?

Injuries also continue to hamper the team, especially on defence with Joel Edmundson and Mike Matheson set to miss the start of the season. While neither host wants a repeat of last season's devastating injury issues, can the absurd depth across the Canadiens organization help keep the team moving in the right direction?

Speaking of depth, Scott and Laura take a look at five young players whose fortunes changed on Monday afternoon. With Juraj Slafkovsky, Arber Xhekaj, Jordan Harris and Kaiden Guhle being told they will start the year in the NHL, while Justin Barron was sent down to the Laval Rocket. The hosts examine the approach Martin St. Louis is using with his young players, while also taking a look at why a short stop in the AHL might be good for Barron right now.

It's Monday, so it's time for another 3 Up, 3 Down, and this time we try to summarize the preseason as a whole with special guest Kyle Demetrius. We start off by talking about Cole Caufield and how he will be the bright spot this season, then discuss the upward trend in Kirby Dach's game so far and what our expectations will be for him going forward. We then move on to the 3 Down as is tradition, and we talk about how Cayden Primeau's time is running out to prove he can hack it at the NHL level. Finally, our 3 Up has us wondering just how high the ceiling is for Kaiden Guhle and Owen Beck. And of course, we can't leave Arber Xhekaj out of the conversation.

Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

Scott once again is here to break down another Montreal Canadiens preseason contest, this time with the game emanating from Gander, Newfoundland. Changing time zones did little to change the Habs' fortunes against the Senators however, as they dropped another contest. The loss did have it's bright spots though, namely in the form of Brendan Gallagher and Kirby Dach, Scott has all the details!

Also, who will be in the lineup on Opening Night when the Habs take on the Toronto Maple Leafs? We know the tandem of Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield will be together, but beyond that anything is possible. Who will flank Kirby Dach? Is Juraj Slafkovsky going to make the lineup at all? On defence, has Arber Xhekaj done enough to claim a third pairing role or more with Joel Edmundson injured?

Finally, Scott takes a look at some leftover mailbag questions from last week! Which young prospect is poised to make the team? How far away is Mattias Norlinder from the NHL? Will the Canadiens make a trade for another veteran on defence? Scott does his best to give everyone the answers they're looking for and more!
