Line changes, toughening of the tone, punitive training… Martin St-Louis tries by all means to shake up his troops, while the Canadian gets bogged down on the ice and in the rankings. Are there any solutions left? If so, do they come from internally or does management need to acquire reinforcement? Our panelists discuss it. They also wonder if the Habs’ defensive game is salvageable and if head coach Jim Montgomery will survive the storm blowing over the Boston Bruins.

They are the worst defensive club, in my opinion, in the league currently. There is nothing that works. It’s careless, executional errors, all the time!

I don’t know if mixing them up right now and trying to refocus on the road can help them, but I wonder if we haven’t reached the limit of this system with the workforce in place.

This is truly the most difficult time to make a trade, but the Canadian could use an electric shock. Something has to happen.
