Last Word on Habs Pod: Montreal Canadiens Desperation TimeIt's a new year and with that comes a fresh new pod for everyone. Connor and Johannes are back to discuss all things Habs, including Marc Bergevin's 'bold' new acquisitions, but more on that later.
First, the guys discuss the Habs pre and post Christmas road trip (and games). Things got off to a very positive start for the Habs in Western Canada, taking six of eight points before the Christmas break. Unfortunately, the wheels have since fallen off since then. Our boys in Bleu Blanc Rouge have lost five in a row, collecting one point. Things are not looking very good right now.
In the wake of this dip in play, the Habs GM went out and made some typical moves by bringing in Marco Scandella via trade and signing Ilya Kovalchuk to help right the ship. Will these players help? Connor feels uninspired about the moves while Johannes is more positive.
The guys dig deep on trying to figure out what the plans are for the Habs. If this season is going the way it seems, perhaps the Habs should throw in the towel and work towards the future. Either way, the next two weeks will essentially force the Habs hand.
All this and winners and losers, Habs cap space, upcoming free agents, Ask Connor and much much more.
Tune IN!!
