Habs got the best player in this draft. I was blown away watching Demidov’s interviews after the draft. Kid has been watching Kobe Bryant videos to establish the Mamba Mentality and honing his killer instinct. I feel like I’m in a dream. And shout out to Queen Celine. Habs have always mastered making class moves to their iconic history and here’s another chapter. Hage is a beauty pick too.

​@@damsquare-nh4mdExactly. I believe that there was a rumour that Demidov only wanted to play for a proper NHL team (ie Chicago or Montreal) with real pressure, and would have chosen to stay in Russia if his best option was Anaheim or a team like that. When Chicago picked Levshunov, Demidov was locked down.

Best management group since Sam Pollock

When Demidov cam out, i was screaming like a madman. I wanted him but i was sure he would be picked before 5...im glad i was wrong 😁

Never been as impressed and certain of this habs team in my lifetime. Everyone is doing they're job as they should and this team is gonna be a well oiedl machine for many years to come. Keep up the great work everyone. Including you junkie ;)

I'm in heaven with Demigod, the surpise Sennecke pick at third, gave us our elite forward.

"Look at the creativity, which is like, second to Bob Ross" LMAO 😂

the 25-26 season is gonna be epic

BBQ'IN BOLOGNA IS EXACTLY WHAT HAS BEEN GOING ON. I LOVE YOU JUNKIE HAHAHBA

Demigod is going to be an artist, so glad to have that kind of player donning le bleu blanc et rouge. True Habs heritage.

I was excited when we picked Slaffy, but this is another level of excitement, worthy of a Demigod!

The Kim jung un Cupid killed me ☠️ 🤣

We will look back on yesterday as a huge piece of the successful rebuild ! Awesome live draft video by the way too ! Thanks so much for your hard work and behind the scenes talent !

it's a team game, don't forget that buddy even McDavid couldn't

Chicago picking Phil Collins 2nd was great. And so was Anaheim picking Sennecke! Great pick. I had my concerns, but I trust our scouts to gauge the MHL performance and the injury issues. A true star. And Hage was a wonderful pick. Seems like a great kid and very skilled.

The core is looking pretty much complete now. All that might be needed now are some lower line wingers, a better goalie, and a right defenseman, but that can be done with UFAs once the Habs are a serious contender. The days of tanking might be over (not that I'd mind another good draft pick to round it out)

Habs drafted Jacob Fowler last year, best goalie prospect

Draft is always a crapshoot, but I like both picks, and I love how much time has been spent building up the defence prospects. The flashy players are the fun ones to watch but the defensive ones keep you playing in the spring.

I love the picks and feedback. Looking forward to see where these guys land. Thanks for your report and enthusiasm.

The DEMIGODS have granted your wish!

Gotta say I was shocked that he was still available at 5 ! Pretty pumped for when this guy gets here. Hage I really knew nothing about but sounds like he could be a good add.

Buddy congrats on the success of this channel ! Well deserved. I think it’s safe to say that we all look forward for habs updates from ya, quickly became my fav channel with the girls at spittin chicklets ( even if they never show love to the habs ) but yea man you’re a G 🙌🏽🤙🏽

"Demigod" is a name custom made for the Junkie!!

My Dad knew Michael Hage's Dad and he passed away by drowning in swimming pool at a party. Amazing how Hage was able to still overcome such a traumatic experience and making the NHL for his favorite team.

The Montréal Canadiens have needed another big brawler, a "Chara", for a while now. Which is the reason why I'm glad we've picked Céline Dion in this draft

Those clips look magic. If he works out well in the development program, we could be talking a Kucherov type of player ... maybe even, no I can't say the name of a certain double trophy winner ......... yet.

''We've been BBQing baloney....'' Funny stuff man! Keep it up

It was fantastic! I didn't shave after the end of the playoffs, in the hope that our draft would go well and finally, hope prevailed. Demidov is a Hab! Praise the Hockey Gods! Now, there's some rumors that Montréal moving to 21st was to get Sasha Boisvert, who got snatched by Chicago at 18th, but Michael Hage's story is so touching, I'm really happy this kid is also a Hab now. The future in Montréal is really bright!

Please... We all know the first thing Gordon and Hughes thought after Celine called Demidov : '' should we tell her we wanted to draft a D man?'' ... In all seriousness, pretty glad they finally had the balls to draft some talent. To think we could have had a line up including both Michkov and Demidov.

We had such an AMAZING draft this year!! Looking back to last years draft the Reinbacher pick looks more and more GENIUS!! Absolute masterclass by the CH! GO HABS GO!!!!

Best management team since the Sam Pollock era. Thanks a ton, guys. Best draft I've ever watched.😊😊😊

We haven't had a 100 point player since Naslund in 86. We might have drafted one last night in Demidov who has the potential to get 100 points.

I’m looking forward to your next podcast with Dave, it’s been a while. I’m sure you’re going to do your podcast on the overall draft and yes, what a great first round and now we have Aatos Koivu, another centre and the son of Saku!!!! This management team is rocking!!

Demidov looks like a young skilled Malkin crossed with Kucherov with speed. WOW, guys got the JUICE! I just watched some highlights on TSN before getting this recommended. Real might recognize Real, but ordinary hockey fans can recognize really good. Big Whoopsi to the morons in Anaheim. YIKES!

Hes the real deal. Im exciting to watch him play!

your lucky charms are coming together nicely soon your habs powers will return.

Great draft, great channel and great God it was 1967 the last time the Laafs won...

Really happy for all you Habs fans

Nice job.

Over 30k views in 12hrs with almost 30k subs, f*ukin right on by. Good to see someone from home doing this. Your killing it bud, keep it up. Also what a f*cking draft for the Habs, future looking sick.

Bro Suzuki was 3 points away from 80 playing with Caufield post injury on one side and a nobody on the other. Give him the credit he deserves.

Phaawkin' AWESOME!! 🤘🔥🤘

The future is so bright i got to wear shades GO HABS GO

I really thought that the HABS would pick Iginla if Lindstrom was gone. The camera shot on Iginla after Demidov was picked seemed to indicate his own disappointment. However I am pleasantly satisfied with the HABS' choice in picking Demidov instead. 👍

« We’ve been BBQ’n baloney » hahahha!!

Hey junkie any chance you’ll be able to post your live stream from the fix? I didn’t get a chance to check it out live.

Honestly, this takes some of the sting out of being first overall the year before Bedard's draft year. This is big.

Wow. The Sleazy ex-used car salesman/Bobblehead NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman has turned the Hockey League into a Sport Entertainment that is like Professional Wrestling where everything is pre-deterimined. Those high draft picks are getting special attention to look good.

Just make sure they keep the Jackeyes brothers for protection great day for Hab fans

I’m still numb over our two picks. We actually picked bigger very skilled puck handlers who can create excitement.

working out to perfection
