Get PuckD Podcast: A Montreal Canadiens Podcast

In this episode, we discuss...

The 2023-24 NHL season has started and the Montreal Canadiens play their first game of the season against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Currently, the Habs have 3 goalies on their 23 man roster. Kent Hughes stated that if Primeau were to be placed on waivers, he is certain he would get claimed. Jake Allen is set to face the Toronto Maple Leafs and some find it very interesting that the Habs are going with Allen to tend the twine for the first game of the season. Is Allen being showcased? Are there any contending teams that can take on his contract? Is there any interest? Josh Anderson is expected to flank Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield on the 1st line. It did not work in the past, why are they trying it again? We think that we know why, let us know if you agree with our logic. Our thoughts on the Habs waiving Armia. As Habs fans, how do we stay engaged during a rebuild and what storylines are we paying attention to. By the end of the season, where will the Habs finish in the standings?

Give us your takes and let us know where you think the Habs will finish in the standings?
