Locked On Canadiens - Daily Podcast on the Montreal Canadiens

Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

-Montreal dismantled Ottawa 5-1 on Saturday night, and did so on the back of some strong performances from unexpected names. So the hosts discuss that despite the difference in the standings, are the Habs a better overall team than the Senators right now?

-A quick scouting report on Ty Smilanic and a special guest announcement for later this week!

-Would an NBA team work in Montreal? The hosts discuss the logistics of making it work, and whether Geoff Molson should entertain the idea.

-Three Up, Three Down returns and Scott feels like Monday's Trade Deadline is going to be very quiet after a very busy weekend around the league. So the question remains, is Monday's Trade Deadline going to be boring?

What is goalie interference? The Canadiens' overtime loss to the Dallas Stars demonstrated, once again, the problem with the lack of understanding about this rule. Plus: it's Friday! So we answer our weekly Habs mailbag, mostly having to do with the NHL Trade Deadline. Will the Canadiens go after a big player this deadline? Who will be the Habs goalies at the beginning of next season? Who should mentor Nick Suzuki next year? And more.

The Montreal Canadiens made their second big splash of the pre-Trade Deadline period, shipping Ben Chiarot to the Florida Panthers on Wednesday night. In return the team acquired a 2023 first round pick, a 2022 fourth round pick, and prospect Ty Smilanic in a huge win for Kent Hughes.

The hosts breakdown their feelings and instant reaction to the trade, with both agreeing it's a massive win for the Habs and that adding so many futures is the way forward. Also did the pressure of the Josh Manson deal force Florida to potentially overpay?

Who is Ty Smilanic? The 2020 third round pick is off to a great start in the NCAA, but what type of player is he and what is his timeline to the Habs?

Finally the hosts remember the last three years of Ben Chiarot in Montreal, and why the Habs Stanley Cup run might have clouded the judgement of other GMs.

On today's episode, we talk about the Montreal Canadiens game versus the Arizona Coyotes, in which the Habs played well but were let down by goaltending. Is it time for Samuel Montembeault to get some rest? We discuss the latest we are hearing on Ben Chiarot, who is being held out of games to facilitate a trade, and the latest we are hearing on the asking price for Artturi Lehkonen. Finally, we discuss whether the Habs should try and get Ryan Suzuki, what it would hypothetically take to trade for him, and Cole Caufield's ceiling in the NHL.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Inside the latest Locked on Canadiens:

-Josh Manson has been traded to the Colorado Avalanche for Drew Helleson and a 2nd Round pick, is this the framework for a Ben Chiarot trade? Or does this Manson deal make Chiarot even more valuable to a team looking to add at the deadline?

-Montreal has continued interest in Jack McBain, but now also Pavel Zacha, how do either of these centres fit into the Canadiens plans and can Montreal balance buying and selling this Trade Deadline?

-The Canadiens and Coyotes clash in Tank Bowl part two on Tuesday night, how can two of the hottest teams in the NHL right now possibly also be two of the worst? The hosts discuss what they'd like to see in the contest, and how to juggle the goalie starts for the week ahead.

-Finally, Auston Matthews was suspended two games for crosschecking Rasmus Dahlin. While the hosts agree that it was worthy of a suspension, they both have serious reservations about the Department of Player keeping a constant standard from here on out.

On today's episode, Dylan Waugh of the Habs-statician podcast joins Laura to talk about the effects of the Habs coaching change, and discuss management strategies the Montreal Canadiens could employ as they try to make the team a contender again. We talk about the Habs under Martin St Louis vs the Habs under Dominique Ducharme, we discuss Nick Suzuki's improvement over the past month or so, and we talk about ways Jeff Gorton and Kent Hughes can be smart with the Canadiens' resources in order to exploit market inefficiencies and improve the team to a point where they can become a legitimate Stanley Cup threat.

On today's episode, Ian Boisvert of The Build, a new Habs podcast documenting the new front office as they seek to bring the Canadiens back to Stanley Cup contention, joins Laura to discuss how soon we can expect legitimate greatness from this team. We first talk about Kent Hughes, Jeff Gorton, and the tall task they have set for themselves, building around players like Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki with the help of Martin St Louis. We then talk about what obstacles could prevent them from returning to a legitimate Stanley Cup threat. Finally, we talk about how long we think it will take this team to become a legitimate contender again.
