“We are going to have a whole country of fans, right?” - Yes sir! You are right! Greetings from Slovakia!

[@albertvanular433]

And Greetings to you as well from Canada!

yeaaa but he was right :) i am fan now

[@MetalCharlo]

So glad to have Slovakia by our side.

Damn, yes! After loong time (when Gaborik and Hossa retired) I can finally wake up at 3 am to watch some good NHL hockey with the Slovak bois :) at least I hope so

"To me that talk tasted better than diner"... That kid is smart

[@pierreluc16]

I got goosebumps hearing Hugues telling K.Dach that we're going to play offensively... been waiting on this for about 15 years now!!!!

[@jakereacher7958]

Unfortunately, that is the result of trying to build around a goalie. Really excited moving forward for sure.

[@fredobar]

c'est incroyable en effet

[@MrGabou77]

Those 3 Slovak kids (I include Nemec) were so happy for each other, it was heartwarming to see. They were almost more excited about their friends getting drafted than being drafted themselves. There's a clip of when Juraj learns that Mesar was also drafted by Montreal, big kid is so happy.

Well done chantal we love you..😘

I'm thrilled that Gorton and Hughes are willing to be transparent and show the fans some of the processes they are using to build the next version of the Canadiens.

[@rockjohn2308]

Totally agree 👍 👏 👌

[@hunterawesome5105]

I was good friends with Owen's older brother growing up, and trust me, this kid's always been a hard worker and will definitely do his best to help the team :)

[@hotsimdrum]

On va se le dire, depuis l'arrivée de Chantal Machabée comme VP communications, la communication et les vidéos/infos postées sur les réseaux sociaux des canadiens sont vraiment top notch! 👌

[@MrGabou77]

Ils on fait la même chose pour le draft de 2019. J'adore Chantal mais les Canadiens faisaient déjà des vidéos comme ça avant elle.

[@justwatchingffs371]

Yeah, no. Often sound problems, not very top notch at all.

[@PurpleIsBored]

It seems we are taking a step into the future of management and analytics in hockey, with that and St-Louis as a modern coach, I am optimistic for the future of this organization. Go Habs Go.

[@ThierryTestiboule]

and development as well, but i guess that's a product of management

[@Biatic124]

Best draft day behind the scenes video I've ever seen. Gives you insight how much thought they put into their decision

[@fandehockey022]

Tellement!

[@FactsMatter]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. No filler. Just an extremely interesting look into the back room that we never get to see. Thank you, merci!

[@tchevrier]

it will be very interesting to see how this crop of players develop. The scouting and development department under Timmons was brutal.

[@laurentdubois2904]

i mean they did draft mcdonagh, subban, pacioretty in 2007+ they draft caufield and gallagher. they are good with late picks

[@clappertopcheddar8079]

Wright is staring down the screen watching this

[@carloronaldo6431]

These scouts are so unrecognized for what they do. Great job. Hope this vid explains clearer to pro-Wright fans why we didn’t choose him.

[@dt-gp2vg]

it's crazy when you think about it, they are searching for the head that they would put million$$ on. sometime i think about my job and not have to deal with thaaat much money but them, they really need to find the good one because they know it's alot of money that they would spend for them.

[@idontknow9621]

Bergervin had almost 10 years to change the face of Hockey in Montreal. Gorton and gang had 6 months.

Montreal wants to play offensive hockey. Great thing is that Slovakia plays the offensive style as well and that is where Slafkovsky exceeds as a great power forward

[@MrGabou77]

Slovaks were playing too defensive until they came under coach Craig Ramsey. He helped mold the current generation of Slovak talent. (famously telling Slaf to shoot more before the Olympics)

[@vladimirsvabik6820]

@@user-xg6sx5ev9u I don't think slovakia can ever compete with Canada in hockey. It's just not physically possible, Canada has got more ice rings than slovakia has ice hockey players 😕 we might have a generation of players from time to time that can put up a fight but that's about it. However bear in mind that hockey in Europe is mostly secondary sport and nothing comes close to football.

[@alanarobova7736]

@@vladimirsvabik6820 as slovakian I disagree but I respect your opinion.Slovakia is mot football country ..look back into past and name when we had do much success as we managed to have in ice hockey. Oor hockey was always better than football ...on the world scales.

[@vladimirsvabik6820]

@@alanarobova7736 slovakia has only 10k registered hockey players compare to 200k registered football players. Now tell me based on these numbers which sport is more popular? Just qualify to FIFA world cup alone is more success than winning the whole IIHF world cup. You can't even compare these 2 sports. Ice hockey is only played by handful numbers of countries which only Canada and perhaps Finland is hockey number one sport. Canada can easily create three teams that could win all medals to any major tournament.

I was on vacation in Greece when the draft happened. I woke up at a god awful hour too watch the draft. As a Habs fan, that was an insane draft. Thought they would go with Wright but I was leaning Slafkovský. Then that out of left field trade. I hadn't heard that in the rumours at all.

"How did you score 7 goals at the Olympics?" "With stick."
