[@powers1500]

There are a few guests which I don't care watching the shows with them...but the Snake is by far my favorite one. He does not sugar coat the truth, he tells it as it is !!!

[@roxanne1987r]

Well that's one way of looking at it 😂

[@sb0182]

He does not sugarcoat…… His OPINIONS !!!!!! Claiming that the Snake SOLELY !!!! Speaks The Truth…. is just as lunatic a statement as it gets

[@FrancoisBert]

I never miss the show when Snake is on. He is so refreshing. He says it the way he sees it, not what people want to hear.

[@rgood1204]

Snake 🐍 is the best. He calls it like he sees it and it has been right more often than not. SICK!!

[@habs4life41]

The best guest.. wish he was on ONCE A WEEK.

Quentin Musty has 45 points in 27 games.

Saying mailloux is a career AHL d man after the year he's had is flat out clown shit, snake is a hipster that's almost always wrong

[@centerhice7948]

Sorry totally disagree . I dont think he s right on all. However he s right on what we have on this team . But were all intitled to opinions . For me Eric Engles is the biggest joke .​@@HunterMagunter

Far from diverse . They ll say they are from one side of their mouth than show their true colors which is politically driven. He only speaks with words to please the Quebecers and their politically driven thinking which has no business in hockey . He s always wants to be local boy pleaser. Cant think for himself .

The Snake is great! Sick!!!

[@erictanty7227]

Im loving the fact that people are finally seeing what i saw last year regarding caufield. It was clear he was rather unidimensional and that there wasnt a big enough sample size for a big contract. Imo this contract is going to age badly. Stop hating on Snake. He is speaking the truth on everything!

Snake's reaction when Tony talks about l'Office de la langue française, is priceless 😂 (seriously wtf?)

[@heathmac9999]

Agree with “Snake” about the need for more size (with talent) up front - interested now in watching Trevor Connelly. The verdict is still out on Primeau, in my view - not enough NHL playing sample to judge, yet. Very good guest analysts, Tony!

Snake has high praise for Trevor Connelly (#2 behind Celebrini in his opinion). We'll see if Kent Hughes agrees and draft him this coming entry draft.

[@mauricecormier599]

[@acidraindrops1]

Tony have more respect for the snake, he has good opinions

[@HubCityIcon]

My issue isn't small players... my issue is I'm pretty sure Josh Anderson leads the team in breakaways. What's going on that it's not Caufield or someone of that ilk? I get Josh is a bit of a unicorn like that but the smaller guys need to showcase their wheels if they got em

[@robertabriel1115]

Yes , small player teams will wear down faster on a playoff run. Need a balance at least to have a Cup hope.

[@l.f.4591]

Tony you should do a fantasy Hockey show for diehard poolers with il fenomeno u Serpente.

[@habinations]

i wish they would. they should also have a channel pool,so we can all show how good we are.

[@robertlegault9226]

Right now you can't compare Caufield to Martin St-Louis. MSL was a more complete player and tougher like Snake mentionned. The only thing is that his shoulder might not be completely healed which would explain his lack of accuracy and might be protecting his shoulder going in the corners.

[@galkanftw]

You cannot again look at just points because an example Rob Brown playing with Mario Lemieux.ANY player can put up some numbers if they get with the right players that is no longer about the individual that is about the line the TEAM. I mentioned last year when the Flyers were missing their two best players ALL year that Travis Konecny who makes LESS than Cole and Nick produced better and is a MUCH better player. So this year with Couture is back in the lineup Konecny is even better than both Cole and Nick and makes a lot less.Konecny this year on a team some social media people were saying was one of the worst teams in the league is 21-18 39 pts and PLUS 16 !!!. Peopel are OFTEN talking about makar the suepr star he is only a +7 on a stacked line. I am glad we see kovacevic is a +6 last year on an injured team he was an EVEN he is much better than most people realize.

[@Robnhood66]

Tony i dont know how you dont lose your mind talking to the snake. Love your show. You are the best! Snake not so much. Lol

[@mathieubelchamber9595]

WOW Tony didnt even ask a question to Snake about Cutter Gauthier ?! He fantasize about a Gauthier-Michkov duo in Philly! He said that a lot of times in the past

[@matrixisreal2023]

In Montreal we only talk about defensive players …

[@1993Ski]

Cole is playing hurt right now, not the time to analyze him. and he just get back after a surgery

[@BuellersBack]

I suspect the same.

[@erictanty7227]

If he hasnt recovered to the point that he can shoot properly or grind the way you're supposed to, then the bloody management shouldnt be playing him. I'll be pissed if that's the case...playing your franchise player in a season that doesnt really matter.

[@mauricecormier599]

Evans is the top plus forward

[@dominicleclerc1343]

Caufiield is a small Ryder

[@ericpierrebolduc3447]

I don't really get the hate towards the Snake. Years are are passing and it seems like the fanbase never learn their lesson, we just keep overevaluating our prospects and get mad whenever someone brings a little bit of nuance to the discourse.

Tony you're doing it again,you ask Snake a question ,and you don't let him answer with out buttin in...GRRRRRRR!! And I've said all along Caufield is a scorer his defence is terrible because he's to small

Is Trevor Connely the next Elias Petterson?

tony: suzuki is really good has nice stats snake: yeah but he's overrated tony: mailloux is good , has recognition and going to all star snake: does not mean anything i don't care. then at the end tony: who are the habs going to draft snake: i'd like trevor conelly! everybody likes him he's on charts and stuff! you cannot not like him!

Agree, too many small guys, again!

[@michelbrazeau7119]

There's not much to be encouraged about the Canadiens listening to this guy. I'm glad I don't accept his opinions.

[@powers1500]

Then, just put back your pink glasses...

[@jayonebullet]

comme dirait VT ... SONT TOUUUSSS POCHE !!!!!!

[@jeffnoury3425]

Suzuki and Caufield are a key piece of our future, however we need more, and finishing 5th and 8th in rebuild years is not going to necessarily cut it unless we get very lucky.

[@BuellersBack]

If Snake evaluated Monty when he was picked up, he would have trashed him. He just doesn't understand that goalies take time to mature. Not saying Primeau will succeed in the NHL, but Snake is just spewing nonsense and thinks he's king sh.. He's a clown at times. Speaking objectively, I agree with him that all star games and junior championships are not a great way to evaluate prospects.

[@galkanftw]

I would compare Caufield to Anthony Mantha who is also not very interested when he doesn't have the puck.When Mantha does get the puck he can score and he can make plays but he has somethign over Caufield he can protect the puck. The problem with these type of players is that they will NOT make others around them better they will not win the battlss and create chances for OTHER players around them. The analogy used wit that 93 team cannot be used because that 93 team was STACKED with talent and valuable two way players.There is no way a modern team could have that kind of roster and remain under the salary cap. Kirby Dach is NEVER going to be anymore than an average second line player.I disagree Dach does not make others around him better he is like the Caufield's a LEECHER ttype player. "production"is NOT th ebe all end all you also need to be a PLUS player especially if you are on the first line getting all the ice time.Something seldom ever talked about is HOCKEY IQ and the Habs have many low IQ players.

[@pierre-yvesdubreuil9315]

Mr tony, aplease abandon all your projects.... i'd like to see you join the Snake and Mathias Brunet podcast. You would feel right at home! 🤣🙃

[@vinceslapchopper]

Agree with the Snake on most Habs prospects, fans and media pump the tires of these young men a little bit too much and it has become quite embarrassing from such a so-called ''knowledgeable'' fanbase. On top of dubious or safe but low ceilling picks over the years, the Habs never put themselves in the best position at the right moments to draft the next generational players. They are always shopping at the thrift stores hoping to find a Chanel suit in a pile of garbage, drafting in the mid to late 1st round rarely gets you a superstar player. Where was the team after they drafted Slaf when everybody knew that Bedard would be the next one? They should have done like the Hawks and go on a fire sale, trade any veteran of value to make sure they finish as close as possible to last place. I am afraid that the Habs lack ruthlessness when it comes to executing the rebuild, it seems karma has rewarded the Hawks for doing the right moves like trading DeBrincat, Dach and letting Kane and Toews go. They did what they had to do to tank and they in return received the 1st overall pick.

[@pierregagne1937]

Duh, of course the habs would be be a better team with Suxuki as no. 2. Everteam would be better if any team would have a better with a better player than your best player.

[@habinations]

i dont want caufield going to the "dirty " areas. its not his job he shouldnt have to imo. he shouldnt be put in a situation where he is needed to just give more than a passing check. i dont want him around the dirty end of a one timer or slapshot thats wild from the point. what is caufield? a perimeter player ,so what. his job is to get open in the slot.and shoot. not check,not block,not play a two way game.thats what the center and other winger are for. you mention patches.when not alone with vegas,orther people did that job as well.making him a point a game player for a few years until he hurt his leg. the exact same thing happened with galchenuck.tried to turn a 30 goal guy into a two way center.if they found a two way center,would chucky be out of the game? perhaps,but his decline wouldnt have been so quick. i dont want cole caufield turned into a third line two way forward.i want him shooting the puck whenever hes open.its not like hes drouin out there. but even drouin,used properly,with talent.seems to be a good player.not asked to check or play two ways....with mckinnon feeding him the puck. \sick
