Inside today’s Locked on Canadiens
The Montreal Canadiens, fresh off their best game of the season rolled into New York and promptly played one of their worst defensive games of the year in response. While the team lost 7-4 to the Rangers, there was plenty of diamonds to be found in the pile of coal on Thursday night. Cole Caufield broke out of his goal-scoring drought with two goals and one more assist to keep the Habs even remotely in the contest. However, the biggest story of the night belongs again to Juraj Slafkovsky, who set a Canadiens record as the first teenager to have a point in seven straight games. Despite the outcome, both hosts found plenty to be excited about on Thursday.
The day also got off to an exciting start with a rumoured trade of Jake Allen to the Colorado Avalanche. While insiders quickly denied that there was any such deal in place, the smoke still seems to be growing thicker around a potential move. Pierre LeBrun also mentioned that the New Jersey Devils are desperate for a stable goaltending option, and that they might be the most likely spot for Allen as the Trade Deadline approaches.
Then, it’s time for the Friday Mailbag!
The hosts discuss the best AHL prospects, the funniest losses our rivals have suffered, and the best possible roadtrip to see the Habs play!

"Patrick Roy is demanding a higher compete level from the Islanders …
1 day agoThe thing is, this iteration of Islanders have always considered their identity to be a hard-working team with a high compete level."
"Jaques Martin: I didn't think our compete level was high enough
Sens interim head coach Jacques Martin addresses the media following the team's 5-1 loss to the Ducks."
"Just what is ‘Compete Level,’ anyway? In general, it's about putting in high effort, mostly doing things that are physical or less glamorous, such as being hard on the forecheck or in puck battles."
Does Montreal not have enough defensemen?
Montreal now has to make up for this game.
Their lack of depth leads to their inconsistencies,
