Canadian rookie defenseman Kaiden Guhle had another great game Monday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins. He played almost 25 minutes, won defensively and scored 2 points. If he continues to play like this and avoid injuries, what is his cap? Can he become, in the next few years, a candidate for the Norris Trophy? Panelists Richard Labbé, Alexandre Pratt and Stéphane Waite discuss it with host Jérémie Rainville.
Posted yesterday at 4:45 p.m.
The quartet also looks back on the Habs’ surprising victory over the Penguins. Is this an anomaly in the calendar or a sign that the Canadian will be competitive this season? In Toronto, we’re pushing the panic button, even though the Maple Leafs are 2-2.
And in Minnesota, it’s the disappointing performances of Marc-André Fleury that hold the attention. Is Stéphane Waite worried about the Wild goalkeeper?

Honestly, I’m bowled over. I thought it would be 1 point, maybe 2 total in the bank. But this is more than that. [Lundi] evening, I was greatly surprised.
Richard Labbé, about the start of the Canadian season
