  • I've been listening to Locked On Canadiens for years now. Laura and Ian (and Scott, when he was around!) are gems. They provide such smart analysis and always give me things to think about with this team. I'm a night owl so I usually listen to the episode an hour or two after it's out and they never disappoint. Definitely my first listen of the day 😂 Highly recommend! Really smart hockey people, and also really great people in general 😊

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

WHAT IF: Could Montreal Canadiens have drastically CHANGED history by drafting Kopitar over Price? Friday Habs mailbag
Q: If you could make a full line up, forwards, defense and goalie of Habs through the years, either all time or recent history, what would your line up be?
The hosts propose a three-forward, two-defensemen, and one goalie all-time lineup centered around iconic Canadiens like Jean Beliveau, Guy Lafleur, Maurice Richard, with defense from Larry Robinson and Gila Point, and a goalie choice between Ken Dryden and Carey Price, illustrating how legendary talent might shape a dream lineup.
BOLD PREDICTION: Montreal Canadiens to LAND Star Player Over $10 Million Before Suzuki Deal Expires
Q: Is the Canadiens' next $10 million cap hit player currently on the roster?
The hosts argue it could be a future addition rather than Nick Suzuki, suggesting the team will bring in a higher-paid player before Suzuki's contract ends, regardless of whether Suzuki himself signs a new deal.
Can Montreal Canadiens benefit from NHL trade requests? Can Maddox Dagenais fall to Habs? Mailbag
Q: If the Habs can't work a trade for a big 2C, is it worth pivoting to an elite winger and pursuing in-house solutions such as prospects?
The hosts note that trading for a traditional second-line center is difficult given market availability, so they lean toward exploring winger upgrades and developing internal options like Demidov, with an understanding that any move should not hollow out the core by sacrificing draft picks or top prospects.
DEADLOCKED: Montreal Canadiens vs Tampa Bay Lightning a close battle | Surprises? | Keys to winning
Q: What about Montreal? What must they do to extend the series and push back against the Lightning's depth?
Montreal must protect the puck better, sustain possession against Tampa's clogging lanes, and continue getting secondary contributions from players beyond the top lines, while maintaining strong defensive structure and goaltending.
DEADLOCKED: Montreal Canadiens vs Tampa Bay Lightning a close battle | Surprises? | Keys to winning
Q: All right. It is the moment of truth. What do these teams need to do to beat the other in the series? Let's start with Tampa.
Tampa needs to elevate their effort level, calm their puck management, and rely on a more fundamental, patient game that leverages Hagel's smart puck control and better passing to avoid getting bogged down by Montreal's pressure.
