Tune in as we open by discussing the heartbreaking loss to Lane Hutson and the Montreal Canadiens in the Bell Centre, including Patrick Kane finding Dylan Larkin for the opening goal, Cam Talbot standing tall, Ben Chiarot getting involved physically, Justin Holl being burned by Cole Caufield, Vladimir Tarasenko's giveaway to Anderson, Johansson's helmet coming off, J.T. Compher and Lucas Raymond missing prime opportunities, and more as Todd McLellan's squad couldn't translate a dominant game into a needed win (3:40).
