Inside today's Locked on Canadiens:

Bad injury news all the way around for the Habs as the team announced that four players are set to miss moderate to significant time over the coming weeks. The most worrisome part of it all is that rookie Juraj Slafkovsky is going to miss at least three months, which means for all intents and purposes, that his rookie season is over. There is some positive news, but the hosts break down all the news, and what it means.

What does this rash of injuries mean for the Canadiens beyond the NHL, and does it impact the plan for upcoming Trade Deadline? With a lack of spare bodies in the AHL and ECHL, namely players on NHL deals who can play a big role in Montreal, the pressure is going to increase all the way around on veterans who have struggled a fair bit this season. Can Kent Hughes still work some magic and find reinforcements?

Speaking of Hughes, the Canadiens GM spoke to the media for a mid-season recap and what his plans are for approaching the rest of the season. Scott and Laura take a look at what Hughes had to say, including some hugely important praise for both Sean Monahan and Samuel Montembeault.
