Canadiens HUGE Road Trip Gets Season Back on Track | Matheson Extension, Slafkovsky + Demidov Duo

Despite a tough result in Denver, the Canadiens have won 3 of their last 4 games and have their season back on track. Even better, their young core led the way.

Ian Boisvert and Laura Saba break down a pair of weekend games that capped off a very successful road trip for the Habs. Leading the way was Juraj Slafkovsky, who dominated even when it didn't show up on the score sheet. The front office got in on the good vibes as well, locking up Mike Matheson to a 5-year contract extension. Ian and Laura both believe this is a great contract for the player and the team. And finally, Slafkovksy was able to lead the way alongside Ivan Demidov. Can this duo be a long-term item for the Habs?
