What’s Wrong with the Canadiens?
Welcome back to another episode of the Habs Notebook Show with Coach Frenchy, Marko, and special guest Franck! Tonight, we’re breaking down the Montreal Canadiens’ struggles after 7 games this season (2-4-1). Fans are getting impatient, and it’s no secret that both the defense and goaltending have been major issues. From missed coverages to soft goals, the Canadiens’ defensive zone play has been one of the biggest concerns.
We’ll be discussing what’s going wrong on the ice, including the inconsistency from Montembeault and Primeau, and how the young defensemen, like Mailloux and Hutson, have struggled to adapt. Is the problem with the man-to-man system, or are we missing key veteran leadership on the blue line? And what about the impact of injuries to players like Juraj Slafkovsky, Guhle, Laine—how is that affecting the team?
We’ll also dive into possible solutions: Should the Canadiens adjust their defensive system? Could we see lineup changes or new strategies to improve their game? It’s time to explore all the options.
Join the conversation, share your thoughts, and help us find answers to the Canadiens’ problems. Don’t forget to subscribe, like, and be part of the passionate Habs Nation as we try to figure out how to turn this season around!”

If you flip over to page 37 your halfway to understanding all the problems.The players don't understand hockey IQ the coach doesn't and if Hughes or Gorten understood it they might tell their coach.Relying on Talent alone is a RNG mode how about improve with better coaching so that you can improve with what you already have.
Exactly.
lets hope the team gets it together before Demidov comes here.
yes pk is doing great but so over used we need to cut time in box by half.
55:50 Agree with MarKo
There is so many things wrong with the Canadians and it starts with the coaching. The players are ok but have no direction.
I forgot to mention laziness.
Exactly…coaching is too soft and it translates to the ice. MAKE THE HIT, get in the corners and Make things happen rather than waiting for things to happen
