The Montreal Canadiens have called up Adam Engström from the Laval Rocket… but why now?

In today’s episode, Shaun Starr and Marco D’Amico dig into the timing and the logic behind the move. Is this just a short-term call-up or does it say something bigger about how the Habs see their blue line?

We tackle:

Why the Canadiens chose to recall Adam Engström right now

What his game looks like and what role he could realistically play

Whether the Habs already have too many “Engström-type” D on the roster

If he actually gets into the lineup, who comes out?

How this affects other young defencemen in the organization

Join us as we break down what this call-up tells us about the depth chart, the coaching staff’s thinking, and what it might mean for the next stretch of games.

👇 Let us know in the comments:
Should Engström play right away, and if so, who are you scratching?

The Montreal Canadiens have scooped up forward Alex Texier off waivers — and there’s a lot to unpack.

In today’s episode, Shaun Starr and Marco D’Amico break down why the Habs made this move, what it says about their current lineup needs, and how Texier fits into the long-term picture.

We dive into:
➡️ Why the Canadiens claimed Texier — roster depth, injuries, versatility, and upside
➡️ Pros & Cons of his game — playmaking ability, skating, defensive consistency, and usage history
➡️ What type of player he really is — PK help? Energy/transition support?
➡️ Where he fits in the lineup — realistic role, ice-time expectations, and who he pushes for minutes
➡️ What this means for the rest of the roster moving forward

Join us as we break it all down with analysis, context, and what this waiver claim could signal for the Habs.

For the first time since the Montreal Canadiens and Washington Capitals met in the NHL playoffs last spring, the two teams matchup Thursday night at the Bell Centre in Montreal. 

Alex Ovechkin had four points, including his 33rd NHL hat trick, to move into the top 10 in points in NHL history, and the Washington Capitals beat the Montreal Canadiens 8-4. Sam Montembeault allowed three goals on 10 shots, Jakub Dobes made 21 saves in relief and Brendan Gallagher and Joe Veleno got their first goals of the season for the Canadiens in the loss.

Shaun Starr and Marco D'Amico will bring you a LIVE presentation, Friday at 12P (ET) to recap all the action as the Habs look to end a four game losing streak after facing a Capitals team that played their second game in as many nights.

Join the boys LIVE for their reaction to the game and weigh in LIVE on the show with your own reactions, comments and questions!

What’s really going on inside the NHL trade market ahead of the U.S. Thanksgiving freeze? In today’s breakdown, we pull apart key take-aways from a revealing article and then apply it to the Montreal Canadiens’ outlook:

• A true seller’s market means very few teams are willing to give up pieces — so buyers are forced to overpay. 
RG

• The Calgary Flames are holding a lot of leverage. They’re in a weak position in the standings yet have no urgency to sell unless offers are massive. 
RG

• Teams like the St. Louis Blues, Nashville Predators and San Jose Sharks are “listening” but not in full panic-mode — making trade wheels slow to turn. 
RG

• For the Canadiens: With injuries stacking and centre depth under pressure, this gridlock could either be an opportunity or a hurdle depending on how the front office plays it.

🔍 WHAT WE’LL COVER IN THIS VIDEO:

What does “seller’s market” really mean, and how does it impact trade prices in the NHL?

Why Calgary’s non-urgency is contributing to the market freeze.

The specific trade landscape for the Canadiens: Where we are now, what we need, major threats, and realistic trade targets.

My prediction: Will a “mistake” trigger a flurry of deals before the freeze? Or will everything stay locked in place?

How this affects your expectations for the rest of the season, especially if you’re following the Habs.

👇 LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS:

Which team do you think will break the freeze first and make a move?

Do you think the Canadiens should be buyers or sellers in this market?

What trade target would you like to see them go after given the current state of affairs?

The Montreal Canadiens are hurt and their depth is really being test now. The Habs give up a lot of goals against and yet their team shooting percentage remains at the top of the NHL. Do the Habs need more of that stay-at-home type of blueliner? We have talked a lot about the Montreal Canadiens need for a solid 2C, but what about more experience on their blueline? Is that an area you'd like to see Habs management tackle?

Let us know what you think!
