Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

The Montreal Canadiens got absolutely obliterated by the Seattle Kraken on Monday night, and the hosts have reached their answer for this season; the Habs are not a good hockey team. They break down a disastrous non-effort by the team and discuss whether or not the team has hit rock bottom yet this season. And for those asking, no it's not just the cursed Reverse Retro jerseys anymore.

Out of everything that happened in a no-good, very bad night, there was a small bright spot for the Habs. Juraj Slafkovsky looked a lot more confident in the loss to Seattle, and with the Habs still in a serious tailspin is it time to give him a longer run on the top line?

Also, with the NHL Trade Deadline looming in just over a month, is it time for the Canadiens to consider retaining salary on some of their longer term contracts in order to move them out? Scott and Laura take a look at the cap situation, and why impending extensions might make salary retention a bad idea in the immediate future. However, is there a case to be made for potentially taking on a bit of cap in the long-term?
