• Habs on Pace for BEST Season since 2017 | Can Slafkovsky Kill Penalties? How BAD is the Goaltending?

  Cole Caufield is currently on pace to be the 7th Montreal Canadien to score 50 goals in a season. There is reason to believe he can pull it off. Ian Boisvert breaks down whether or not the Habs can keep the pace they are on. Will Juraj Slafkovsky finish 12 points behind his career high season last year? And speaking of the Habs first overall pick, can the Canadiens eventually use the power forward on the penalty kill? And because no conversation about the Habs right now can avoid goaltending, Ian takes a look at goaltending metrics to determine if Sam Montembeault and Jakub Dobes can play their way out of their funk. 00:00 Canadiens Projected 95-97 Points05:52 Cole Caulfield Chasing 50 Goals15:00 Evaluating Slafkovsky's Line Impact18:14 Slafkovsky's Offensive Mindset25:17 Goaltending Struggles and Insights00:00 Canadiens Projected 95-97 Points05:52 Cole Caulfield Chasing 50 Goals15:00 Evaluating Slafkovsky's Line Impact18:14 Slafkovsky's Offensive Mindset25:17 Goaltending Struggles and Insights Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeDownload the Gametime app, create an account, and use code LOCKEDONNHL for $20 off your first purchase.
