We were a little late getting to the podcast version this month, but myself and Patrik Bexell got together to discuss EOTP’s selections for the players of the month in the Montreal Canadiens system.

It was a tight contest, with perhaps a few missed opportunities to secure the second point in the standings, but they remain among the best teams in the Eastern Conference in part due to picking up these spare…
The Laval Rocket had spent much of the last week resting up at home following a strong win last Saturday over the Rochester Americans. Their win left them with a 6-4-0 record, good for third in the highly competitive AHL North Division, trailing both Rochester and Syracuse. The team wasn’t idle during their break however, with Wyatte Wylie being released from his deal and the team opting to sign…
