MONTREAL - No need to tally up the votes. A large majority of Habs players turned to country for this collection of summer tunes presented by Econofitness. One name kept coming up over and over again.

"Morgan Wallen," said one player.
"Probably Last Night by Morgan Wallen," said another.
"Anything Morgan Wallen. His whole new album, every song is good," declared Jake Allen. "I think he's coming to the Bell Centre in September, so I'll make sure to be there."

If the Tennessean singer is a popular choice in the Canadiens locker room, other artists of his genre also ranked highly on the informal charts put together by the canadiens.com team.
Kirby Dach and Chris Wideman held a long debate over whether Eric Church was in fact the singer responsible for Springsteen. The Internet confirmed No. 77 was correct.
Captain Nick Suzuki expressed that he's given many listens to Fast Car lately, the Tracy Chapman classic that's been covered by Luke Combs.
Some excerpts may contain explicit lyrics. Listener discretion advised.
With his usual charisma, Juraj Slafkovsky demonstrated that he wasn't too picky.
"I'm bad with songs so I don't have one. I don't care, whatever they play I'll listen to," he stated, before indicating a stat that... leaves room for interpretation. "Since 2017, I have 100 songs on my phone. 100 different songs in six years, so you can maybe know that I'm not listening to many songs."
Jordan Harris affirmed that any song with rhythm would be on his summer playlist.
Michael Pezzetta, Jonathan Drouin, and David Savard all mentioned local artists. Sir Pathetik didn't end up making the cut, but Montreal singer Reve and Quebecois hip-hop group Taktika (still at it!) did.
A fine connaisseur of 2000's hits,
locker room DJ Joel Edmundson
shared what he was listening to on his way in to the Bell Sports Complex that morning.
"Nice sunny day, I put a couple of The Fray songs on and good vibes this morning, that's for sure," described the 29-year-old rearguard.

Note that Paul Byron and Jake Allen chose Tool and Morgan Allen, respectively, but the choice of song was left to the canadiens.com editorial team.
