Mike Matheson is off to a phenomenal start for the Canadiens this season. In a contract year, can he and the Habs work out an extension to keep Magic Mike in Montreal?

Ian Boisvert and Laura Saba break down a couple of rumours on today's Rumour Roundup. Matheson and the Habs may have mutual interest in an extension, but finding a spot where he fits long term may be a challenge. Finding a fit for a new centre will not be tough for Montreal, but finding the right centre has proven to be elusive for the Habs front office. Should the Canadiens focus their efforts on teams falling out of the race early?
