Inside today's Locked on Canadiens The Canadiens ended up a tough road trip with another frustrating loss, this time to the St. Louis Blues on Saturday night. While there are still several key vets struggling, there's still plenty of good to look at, including Juraj Slafkovsky announcing his arrival on the top line with a huge goal. With a tough week ahead, how can the Habs bounce back? Then, its Three Up, Three Down! Mike Matheson highlights the Down section this week as the veteran defender seems to be miles off his form from last season and it's having a huge impact on a young defence. Is it a nagging injury or is this a swift regression to the mean after an incredible season last year? Also, the Josh Anderson conundrum continues, and while it's frustrating, it's also incredibly sad based on how good we know Anderson can be. On the flipside of things, the Up section is full of thriving defencemen this week, starting with none other than Lane Hutson! With a hat trick on Saturday and another goal on Friday, Hutson is wasting no time in establishing himself as a Hobey Baker favourite. Logan Mailloux also had his best game as a member of the Laval Rocket last week, Scott breaks down where the rookie is thriving and why he was so crucial in a comeback win. Finally, after years of injury struggles, is Brendan Gallagher officially back? Based on his past week he certainly appears to have captured that old form again!
