Habby Hour!

The title is a bit misleading since  Dave and Veronica get into a bit more than just that! Jonathan Drouin spoke about his hiatus from the team with Chantal Desjardins and Renaud Lavoie, the Habs announced their Respect and Consent Action Plan, the rookies faced off twice against the Baby Sens, there's a PTO coming to the main training camp on Wednesday, and more! (Including some Emmy Talk an...

Well, well, well, well, WELL... The gang is back and (mostly) everything that happened in the off season is condensed into one hour of catching up! For those that were waiting for our return, we're sorry that it took so long! We have contracts, training camps, trades, whatever went on the past two'ish months is in here, including that thing with North Carolina. We're back!

The gang have decided to go on a bit of a hiatus! Beth, Dave, and Veronica still feel strongly about the Habs' decision to draft Logan Mailloux, and feeling psyched about the team has been difficult. As such, they do spend time talking about the further aftermath from the draft, and some of the offseason moves that the Habs have done so fun. When will the Habby Hour be back? Not sure!

It is a new season of the Habby Hour, and unfortunately it has to come at a time where the organization is being scrutinized, and rightly so, for their pick at the draft. Logan Mailloux, a player convicted of a sex crime in Sweden last year, is now a part of the Montreal Canadiens. David and Veronica share their thoughts on the matter.

A whole lot of news dropped last week, from the benign, to the CRAZY. Seattle's Expansion Draft has become a hotspot for Habs fans as it has been revealed that both Shea Weber and Carey Price have been left unprotected. Beth and Dave talk about all of the ins and outs of what this means, and also some other news! Remember that Ducharme and Richardson were given extensions! That seems like so long...

Back to weekly episodes! Unfortunately Beth couldn't be here to enjoy it with us, but Dave and Veronica do what they can to get everyone caught up on what's going on with the Habs. The tale of the tape? Their reactions to the post mortem media availability of the players as well as the futures of Marc Bergevin, Dominic Ducharme, and the Laval Rocket.

After mounting a come back for the ages against the Maple Leafs, sweeping the Jets who had swept the Oilers, battling to victory against the Golden Knights, the Habs are not able to keep up the fight against the Bolts. With a 0-1 loss in Tampa the Habs are eliminated from Stanley Cup contention. What's next? The crew reminisce on the playoffs and talk about what could be coming next for the team....

Down... But not out! The Habs live! A 2 goal game by our Powerhorse forces a game 5 back in Tampa! Do you believe?

Well, well, well. If you were looking for adversity, here it is! The first Stanley Cup Finals game at the Bell Centre saw a route of the Canadiens as they drop a 3-6 decision against the Bolts. The Habs are on the brink, with the risk of elimination on Monday.

A better effort didn't give the result that the Habs were looking for in game 2. Now, the boys have a hole to climb out of as the series heads back to Montreal. They trail 0-2 in the series.

Finally, the time has come, the Habs are in the Stanley Cups Finals. The series started in Tampa with the Habs doing a well enough job after two periods to trail 1-2. But, the 3rd period unraveled and the Habs were dealt a loss. No one said it would be easy! We're still in it!

THEY DID IT! THEY DID IT! THE HABS DEFEAT THE KNIGHTS AND WILL BE IN THE STANLEY CUP FINALS!!

What a GAME! The Habs return to the desert and will be returning to Montreal after putting up a statement win! With a 3-2 series lead, the Habs now have the chance to to put the Knights down and return to the Stanley Cup finals!

With the return of Dave the podcast can get to recording again! The gang recount tonight's OT loss, and also talk about games 2 and 3, and holy crap, the officiating. With the series now tied 2-2, the boys are going to have to find another gear on the road in Vegas if they want to keep their hopes for the cup alive. We're not worried! And we'll tell you why! Oh, and Beth and Dave talk about their...

The Habs have crossed the border and into enemy territory! Vegas played host to our boys and dealt them their first loss, ending the winning streak at 7. A big game 2 is coming up on Wednesday! Thankfully, the Habs will have Dave and Beth in the stands to cheer them on!

The sweep is COMPLETE! The Habs are the best team in Canada and are going to the 3rd round of the playoffs! Their opponent will be one of either Vegas or Colorado, and we should know by this weekend!

The streak continues as the Habs, AGAIN, roll over the Jets in a 5-1 win! A dominant showing puts the Jets on the brink. Game 4 is tomorrow in Montreal!

The Habs continue their winning ways as they bag their 5th in a row! In a 1-0 decision (and a Carey Price shutout!) the Habs take a 2-0 series lead back to Montreal!

What was a triumphant opening game against the Jets was mired in the final minute with a blatantly dangerous hit by Mark Scheifele on Jake Evans. The crew talk about the Habs win, the awful discovery of the mass grave of children at Kamloops, and Pride Month.

It has happened. The Habs complete the comeback and defeat the Toronto Maple Leaves in Toronto. The Habs have advanced to the second round of the playoffs!

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!! The Habs win it in overtime at home to force a game 7 in Toronto!

The series went back to Toronto and it looked like the Habs got the memo... They force a game 6 with a 4-3 overtime win! And, significantly, the series heads back to Montreal where there will FINALLY be fans in the stands! 2,500 strong!

And now the Habs are on the brink. A shutout loss to the Leafs leaves many Habs faithful wondering... Why? The Habby Hour breakdown what was, at best, a middling effort from a team that needs to be anything but.

The series continues in Montreal! Unfortunately the Habs drop the game, and the Leafs take a 2-1 series lead. This episode is a mixture of some post game thoughts, but mostly concerns the endearing support that Leafs fans have for the Habby Hour! Dave takes time to thank them all for their good sportsmanship while Beth and Veronica talk the game in tonight's episode.

And we're right back to square one! The Habs are sunk in game 2 of the series with a drubbing 5-1 result. However, that was not without the same sort of strong play in the first period. So, what went wrong? Well, some might say that discipline was an issue! That is not what us at the Habby Hour would say.
