Taking a page out of Wilco’s playbook, we’re going to go ahead and just call this podcast Star Wars, because it seems no one cares about anything else anyway these days. Speaking of alt-folk-country bands, or something like that, as the Counting Crows once said; it’s been a long December. The absence of Price and Gallagher is taking its toll and the Canadiens are losing, a lot. Can they bounce back any time soon? Is Johansen coming to Montreal? Is Stamkos bolting Tampa? It’s The Montreal Bias!

Mike Condon has helped hold down the fort in Carey Price’s absence so far, but it’s been a rough week and December’s challenging schedule is not going to do the Canadiens any favours. The gents worry things could get ugly, debate how much they’d pay for a cheap shot at Marchand, and wave goodbye to Alex Semin.
