Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

Montreal played a pair of games against the New York Islanders and Washington Capitals, with their efforts ranging from good to shambolic in the span of 48 hours. The hosts look at Nick Suzuki destroying a goal camera for his 20th goal of the year, and what continues to go wrong with the defensive pairs every single night. With just six games left, now is the time for the Canadiens to get creative and try out everything, including shuffling around veteran players if need be.

Also this weekend, the franchise icon, the backbone of the Canadiens, and your mom's favourite player, Carey Price returned to action for Montreal in a losing effort to the Islanders on Good Friday. Scott and Laura discuss his play, and how his return is potentially the biggest victory the Habs will notch this season, and also what it means emotionally to see #31 back between the pipes at the Bell Centre. With all due respect to Samuel Montembeault who was tasked with something nearly impossible, the return of Carey Price provides the Habs with something they've missed for most of this season.

Finally it's the return of Three Up, Three Down where Scott and Laura pick their ups and downs within the Canadiens organization for the last week. Somehow improbably Josh Anderson's antics towards Tom Wilson lands him on both lists, as the hosts discuss his role of being big brother for Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield. Also on the way up is Mike Hoffman who had a very strong pair of games to end the week, as did Jesse Ylönen for the Laval Rocket. On the downside, the struggles of the David Savard/Alexander Romanov pairing can no longer be ignored, and it might be time for Jordan Harris to play a bigger role in the final six games.
