I’m gonna live tweet this shit. Demidovs “he lost” about slaf was gold

Very interesting that they discussed Demidov as a potential #1 center, I was just assuming he’s going on the wing.
Having a 1/2 punch of Demidov and Suzuki would be pretty deadly.

Cant wait for our future boys& girls. We have such top class management that really wants a long term success for our beloved Montréal Canadiens.
So glad Molson decided to turn the page and embark on this long overdue chapter.

-Vincent Lecavalier on Demidov

So, unless there’s some really clever editing — that move from 26 to 21 was all for Hage!
and if he was taken beforehand, they were re-trading the pick

A great gift to us all!! Hughes should win GM of the year!

Interesting that at least some of our scouts see Demidov as a center.
Billy Ryan said “I’d take Demidov, you get a potential number 1 center vs a top six scoring winger”.

Kaprizov + Jack Hughes sounds good to me
also Aatos looks big sitting across from those guys, are they just short? cuz hes only listed at 6′ I think?
ChrisvsWorlds
Love these draft videos, I hope they keep doing it!
Seeing the clips of our top prospects at the end of the video had me hitting the Hopeium.

Impressive to see we had a team willing to give us an unprotected 1st in what’s believed to be a better draft class and an early 2nd. Allegedly a bad team so I’m assuming it’s Ottawa.

Our analytics guy seems to like Koivu which is interesting. Bobrov said Hage had a 20% chance of being there at 21, so I can see why they were all so happy after the draft with Demidov + him.

what did they blur/cut out that Marty said after he asks the second group about Demidov? @ 10:54
is it another player’s name, since they explain earlier that they were tasked with analyzing pairs of players, some profane nickname, or just throwing some curses out there in a room with the boys?

Why do ninja’s cutting onions always appear as soon as Hage story and draft moment happens?

I’m glad this just confirmed what we all thought, they were all laughing walking onto the stage to pick Demidov.

I’m really curious if there was anything actually on the table when Kent asked Marty “if he isn’t there at 5, do you trade 5 for their first round unprotected and a 2nd?” And what team it was.
I’m glad we got Demidov but that alternate reality made my ears perk lol
douce_abeille
I love this team so fucking much. I cannot wait for the future.

C’est intéressant d’entendre Aatos Koivu dire qu’il a plus cherché conseil auprès de son oncle (Mikko) qu’auprès de son père face à la pression d’être «le fils de…».
DIKs_Steeler
It seems like Sawyer (and probably Koivu) was late 2nd on their list

Everyone just let Billy Ryan speak!

Aatos Koivu has the best flow I’ve seen on a Hab since I don’t know when … what a mane
Longshanks123
Wow they really did make that trade specifically to get Hage

I clapped when Demidov was smiling about playing with Lane Hutson 👏

Hage, nervously: “[Montreal’s on the phone](https://x.com/scottcwheeler/status/1814874089678344633?t=JrVhmtar41aWd93Opgu32Q&s=19)”
Went Wughes, meanwhile, confidently: “Our player is still available, thanks bye”
Moments collide, incredible stuff
Demidov looks just as happy to be selected by the Habs as we were that the Habs selected him, and I didn’t think that was possible
Kent Hughes can’t stop talking about Lane Hutson either. He’s just like all of us.
Does Hannu Laine (habs finland scout, the guy who called Aatos Koivu) has any link with Patrick?
