Interview with Kirby Dach, Montreal Canadiens

We caught up with friend of the show Kirby Dach to talk about the season in Chicago, his trade to Montreal, and what he's most looking forward to with the Habs.

[@iamanisland]

Welcome to Montreal Kirby. Been a fan ever since you played for Canada in the U18 WC. You need know only one thing about Habs fans; it’s that we appreciate effort. Sure, we love it when you put up points but a guy like Lekhonen was a fan favorite here; he didn’t necessarily fill the net but one could tell he was putting in the effort every night, getting grade A scoring chances and being responsible on defence. I’m sure that if you give it all you’ve got, Montreal is going to love you.

[@justindillabaugh7146]

We’re excited to have scored you in Montreal Dach 👍

[@seannickerson5730]

Kirby is staying Montreal As a long long time Habs fan, I can't wait to see 77 on the ice with Anderson & Drouin.

[@crankybastid2197]

Habs fan here. I am excited and have been screaming for larger forwards for a while now. Good luck to you Kirby. :)

[@jimmyrempel6260]

Welcome to Montreal young man

[@guymercier627]

Kirby if you ever read this... From Montréal... I am as many in Montréal extremely existed to have youy on board... and take it easy... I have no expectation... take your time... 21 is so so so young... let the wind of the fans flow into your new sweater... what we call la sainte flanelle... take your time to live and be happy and you will be a better player... and if possible just learn and say just a couple of words in french... you dont know how much this will be appreciated... trust me...

[@Landry04]

I’m so hyped for Dach! I hope under St-Louis he can bounce back. Go habs go and welcome to MTL, Kirby!

[@claykirby2814]

Dach, I live in Saskatoon, can’t wait to watch you play with the Habs! Awesome to have you with the Habs.

[@josephb.5497]

Welcome to Montreal Kirby. I wish you the best of luck.

[@bone_krusher5474]

Hawks fan here and I’m kinda surprised by the positivity of getting Dach. I’m honestly perplexed but only wish the best for him in Montreal. Good luck Kirby!

[@YoungCoconuttt]

think he just had a bad run in chicago, injury first year and then the whole team was awful last year. He’s got great potential so hopefully a change of scenery with the other young guns in montreal will do him some good! Hopefully chicago can turn things around too

[@JoeBoozer]

surprised lol.

[@jo12danjames]

I was a very happy habs fan having John Scott in our line up! Great Interview. Can't wait to see Kirby play.

[@Solaris501]

Great host. The humor definitely helps with these interviews.

[@randylavoy6196]

Welcome to Montreal Kirby...We are very excited to land a big strong centerman!!! Just give it your best each game ...and you'll be fine.!! All the Best.!!😁👍

[@Youwoketube]

We're looking for a Doc at center, glad to see Kirbs with Habs. Go Habs!👊

[@Canadian693]

Welcome to Montreal! Looking forward to watching you play! GO HABS GO! 🔴⚪️🔵

[@mzmarquette]

I'm going to miss seeing this guy in Chicago!!! Can't wait for him to show the Hawks how big of a mistake they made letting him go!! Go get'em KD!!

Go habs go!! 🥅❤️

[@pierrelalonde3705]

I like Kirby he will be a great fit with the Habs

[@Taooflu]

He’s 21 - so young, too young for 7 kids but he’s going to be well surrounded by the youth movement in Montreal.

[@capitalcitypunishmen]

i havent been your biggest fan john, but you won me over with this one. great pod!

[@filterlessbear9250]

Has John been listening to the Big Bear? I love hearing a man encouraging the young lads to have families! 7 well done John spread them Giant gene's!

Last skilled player to wear #77 was Turgeon

From Chicago here. Something must have happened in the Chicago locker room. Rumors are that Kirby complained about ice time and losing.

[@toxiczebra5920]

Habs fans loves you very much John. I'm sorry the league did you dirty

[@AceMatthew25414]

As a Habs fan Montreal is not built to win 😂 Maybe in 2-4 years.

[@jordanritsma3359]

I think you need to have all star mvp in your KZbin name!!

[@pitrsoundslikepeter7467]

Billy Barker days in Northern Saskatchewan? Damn, I remember that in Quesnel BC not Northern Saskatchewan….. wtf?

[@clappertopcheddar8079]

If Dubois is traded to mtl unfortunately dach is going to Winnipeg

[@mannye4928]

I think they keep him and move Dvorak instead. Lower caphit and higher potential.

[@frankavery568]

Just play your game you will be great

[@babyyoda6549]

I find this interview kind of pointless considering he might be traded at any moment for pld

[@BrianK49]

What - the Canadiens are a team that is built to win NOW? Are you kidding? Dude you might want to get with the program - Habs in the middle of a major rebuild - why did they draft 1st overall in 2022 Entry Draft - it wasn't because they are a team ready to make a playoff bid, let alone a Cup run

[@stockey]

You will have a lot to prove, that you're not a bust, let's see how it goes.

[@UltraViolence90]

Fantom FTM 👌👀😈

[@jeffreynoury1637]

18:18, wait what? lol. Hes going to a team thats built to win....where did that come from? He is coming to the Canadiens who are in full on rebuild mode. Yes we have Price, but only because his contract is pretty much immovable. We are going to be a bottom 8 team this year, and that is best case scenario. Now that being said, the future looks bright, and hopefully can get back to the playoffs in 3yrs. Offense seems decent, but the defense will be weak at best.

[@andrepepin9792]

I bet you that the Canadiens will be back in playoffs by 2023-2024 season.

[@jeffreynoury1637]

@@andrepepin9792 that would be cool, but im a lot more pessimistic i guess, lol. Im just hoping one of your defensemen can become a solid #2 in the league, and a couple more top 4s

CC is #22

[@kozack2]

He won't have to worried getting shot in Montreal.

John, stop talking about you JC...LOL. Learn your facts before you go in interviews, how do you not know Caufield is #22? lol. I give this show a rating of 2 on 5...Goddamnit John tv isnt for you lol

You are 40!!! You look 55! That's a good reason to not have 7 kids

It is irresponsible to have 7 kids now.
