Canadiens Contractual Obligations: Jordie Benn
The Montreal Canadiens have an interesting group staring down the free agency barrel; a baby faced Finnish assassin, a homegrown kid stuck in limbo, a size enriched enigma, a mobile blue liner on the right side of youth but the wrong side of recent fortunes and a depth guy that punched above his weight on the second pair.

Habs Questions & Answers: The Homestretch
The lesson being learned surrounding the Montreal Canadiens at every level, inside of the organization and out, is one no longer familiar to those that had previously learned it.
