Inside today's Locked on Canadiens

An insanely entertaining first round of the playoffs is still underway, but with so many storylines and narratives already forming the hosts try their best to fit it all into the opening segment. Are the Leafs going to finally win a round after stealing game against Tampa? Are the Oilers about to be upset victims despite being tied in their series? What series has surprised the hosts the most?

Then, it's onto player reviews for this past year!

Starting things off, the duo take a look at the unfortunately injury shortened season of Josh Anderson. The physical, speedy winger topped 20 goals for the first time in a Canadiens uniform, and was closing in on his career best before an injury ended his season early. While wearing an 'A' on his sweater for most of the season Anderson seemed to have found some consistency that was lacking in previous years, even while surrounded by trade rumours. Does a strong offensive showing earn Anderson a high grade?

To wrap things up, the hosts turn their attention to the newest fan favourite player in rookie Arber Xhekaj! While Xhekaj struck fear into the hearts of opponents with his fists and punishing physical game, he showed surprising offensive upside this season. With the defensive group continuing to get crowded, how can Xhekaj establish himself further and keep himself as one of the regulars next season?
