Big fan of fowler to be honest. He seems to have that fire and I hope he makes it.

Fowler strikes me as having a bit of a Patrick Roy compete level🔥🔥🔥

J’aime l’attitude de Fowler 💪🤘

Never would i've doubted a guy that answers and talks like that. This kid will be a steal.

He's got the drive that I like to see.

[@goose3246]

I love Fowler’s attitude, the kid is born to success

[@maximeetbidule]

Un grand merci à l'Organisation des Canadiens pour ce moment de partage. On comprend mieux le processus ainsi que les acteurs qui prennent les décisions capitale pour l'avenir de cette grande équipe. Billy Ryan à vraiment mis sa tête sur la bûche pour le jeune Fowler.

Can't wait. Always a great insightful look behind the scenes. Go Habs Go!!

The dude on the high chair against the wall asking the hypothetical questions is really having a blast!

[@thailakhampo]

He surely did lol

[@kylewilly73]

Big complaint with this!… NOT LONG ENOUGH!!! I want more!!!

[@TaigaShaman]

When they made the pick I was shocked, as I've learned more about DR I've become more and more excited about this pick. Well done JG, KH and team. Love to see the former 5th overall pick welcome the newest 5th overall pick to the CH.

[@Kris-bx5qj]

We Love you Reinbacher. man what a super kid he is! the phone call to his mom... and just to see the emotion on his face was really touching! 🤗🤗 Bienvenue! David ❤❤

[@jojoin514]

What an interesting insight on what goes on for choosing draft picks. Looking forward to the upcoming season and looking forward to seeing the newest members progression all the way up to the big team. All the best boys.

[@huandru]

This is fascinating. This video needs to stay up for years so that I can re-watch it.

[@alexzuccaro8313]

fowler and Reinbacher.... love em!

[@jeremiepaquette7364]

I actually got emotional when we saw Marty shake his hand and say, Youre what we need, the future is awesome

[@jean-philippedoyon9904]

He's right ! Now the top 6 defense of the future is in developpement...that depth is insane !

[@sb0182]

And the kid barely able to respond cause his English is so bad With timid personality… Which rarely translates to Leader & Dominant player. Awful pick

[@nancetardiff339]

@@sb0182 Off-the-ice, Bobby Orr epitomized timidity. So did Bob Gainey, who turned out to be a great captain.

[@louisdore-savard8429]

It's pretty incredible and impressive that it looks like they got every player they wanted at the rank they wanted them. I know there is some editing but Reinbacher, Fowler, Xhekaj and Konyushkov (and Miller) were all available when they wanted them. It's crazy to me that they were not caught by surprise and forced to make a different move at any point. I'm wondering how frequent that is throughout the league.

[@sb0182]

7:00 Gorton wanted Michkov. Not Reinbacher.

[@alexandrethibault2482]

Can't wait to see the team play, and would love to see the kids healthy for a whole season: Dach, Caufield, Guhle, Xhekaj, Slaf... GO HABS GO!

[@jake111991]

That was great. Need more behind the scenes content

[@WarriorStrengthFitness]

Seeing the scout talk about Fowler got me fired up. I am a Leafs fan, so I had not heard of him before. But that scout was very pationate about him. Excited to see how he pans out in the long term! Great video. I love content like this!

[@Spotnick2]

The scout is former St-Louis Blues goalie Vincent Riendeau

[@theboog7214]

It’s great to see Yannick St-Pierre with the staff. I miss his youtube channel, it was really good.

[@eastcoastgaming4310]

Un gros merci pour ce vidéo! Comme un 'scout' amateur mon rêve est d'être dans ses rencontres la en quelque temps! C'était super de voir le processus derrière le repêchage!

[@jean-philippedoyon9904]

Journée de draft 2-7, J'avais écouté l'entrevue de Fowler...ce qui m'a le plus frappé c'est son intelligence et sa rapidité de réponse. Dans son entrevue avec les scout ici, on le vous encore plus, il connait le coté de tous les joueurs,l de la ligue et je le crois quanf il dit on peut faire le tour. Un goaleur intelligent doit connaître de quel coté McDavid ou Jack Hugues va tirer ! On a drafter 3 bon goaler cette année !

[@viper29ca]

I like that Fowler kid, going to be a great star for the Habs in the future!

[@louforcier2549]

I wish they show us the Mitchkov interview

Ty this was a great Insight to the habs process

It’s understandable why they wouldn’t include it, but it would have been interesting to see their discussions on Michkov and Leonard.

[@waynereid3433]

So awesome to see this and makes me feel comfortable that we’re in good hands!

[@chuck3238]

Fowler’s confidence and fire reminds me of Patrick Roy. Price had more talent but lacked the fire imo

[@bren7431]

What??? Price was the most competitive dude around

[@ThierryLeYeti]

Price had the fire, he just had shitty gms who couldnt build a team in front of him

[@michaelwou1667]

What are you talking about? Price was the best goalie in the league for years. Habs didn’t win the cup and it’s never Carey’s fault.

[@TheGreekPoet]

I agree with you about Price. All the talent in the world, but IMO couldn't stay focused and intense enough in the long haul. My suspicion is that his substance issues had a lot to do with it.

6:45 Gorton is talking about Michkov here. He wanted to take a chance and draft him. I think time will tell us he was right.

[@darrenpinard1658]

Yea this sequence might be about Michkov, but the name they’re *bleeping* is too short to be Michkov, has to have come down to Smith vs Reinbacker.
