It's rare to see this, especially in such an intense manner, but things got heated earlier in the evening on TVA Sports between Jean-Charles Lajoie and Tony Marinaro.

A simple conversation about the progression (or lack thereof) of Montreal Canadiens players this season quickly went off the rails.

Have the Montreal Canadiens players progressed or regressed this season compared to last season?

This question sparked a huge debate on Tuesday during the debate between Jean-Charles Lajoie and Tony Marinaro.

"Why do players not want to come to Montreal?" Marinaro fired back at Lajoie, who was then criticizing Caufield's offensive progression. "It's because of guys like you [JiC] and the French media. You're always sh***ing on the players!"

Jean-Charles Lajoie, on the other hand, believes that Caufield hasn't progressed much as a player because he's not scoring more goals. (since he's paid to score, according to him)
