HW Recap: A Step in the Right Direction

It’s far too early to say the Habs are back on track but they took some strides towards getting there this past week with a couple of big wins over divisional rivals. In St. John’s, things weren’t as rosy as the team dropped two of three games. Plus. Marc Bergevin is being sent a message by the hockey gods right now which is the focus of my Final Thought.

HW Recap: The Drought Continues

Montreal’s offensive woes continue to plague them as they managed just three goals in three losses this past week. Things are a bit better in St. John’s as they split a pair of games against the AHL’s top team. Plus, 2015 is almost over which means it’s time to look back at some of the important Hab headlines over the past calendar year.

Habs at the World Juniors

The 2016 World Juniors are almost upon us and for the first time in many years, the Canadiens will not have any prospects representing them. However, quite a few current Habs and IceCaps have had a chance to suit up for their respective countries in the past with quite a bit of success.

Slumping Scorers: Par for the Course

Plus, Marc Bergevin made his first trade of the year; my Final Thought takes a closer look at the Lucas Lessio acquisition.
