Allez Allez Allez! Canadiens Advance to Eastern Conference Final

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning begin with thoughts on the Montreal Canadiens advancing to the Eastern Conference Final. They break down Alex Newhook's overtime winner, what has made the Canadiens’ rebuild so successful, how impressive Jakob Dobeš has been, the impact of Martin St. Louis behind the bench, and whether Montreal has a chance to upset the Hurricanes. The conversation also shifts to what the rise of both Montreal and Buffalo means for the Toronto Maple Leafs and the increasingly difficult path through the Atlantic Division. After the break, the guys react to the Blue Jays series-opening loss to the Yankees. They discuss concerns around Yariel Rodríguez and the bullpen, questionable late-game at-bats from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and George Springer, the team’s need for rotation health, the surprise trade of Eric Lauer, and whether the Jays still hold an edge over New York.
