What he just said has Habs fans PUMPED... - This has HUGE implications

[@TomCrouchman.]

Hutson is a hall of famer in the making. This kid is the real deal, you all agree.

[@CanadianBiPolarBear]

His brother is better , and we could of drafted him to , plus there is another one in the 2026 draft

[@4u2nvHock3y]

​@CanadianBiPolarBear His brother is better? Come on don't let one WJC fool you. He's still been on pace for like 33 points in 39 NCAA games. Hutson had like 49 in his rookie ncaa year. He also already is a #1 defenseman. He's 100% better. There's a chance Cole is. But under 5%

[@CanadianBiPolarBear]

@4u2nvHock3y compare them at same age , his brother is further ahead and has a better shot ..its not 1 jr tournament comparison , its facts...quit letting google decide who is better , pts dont tell the story

[@charles6180]

@@CanadianBiPolarBear Who cares! We have Lane. He is surpassing expectations and has a great chance to win the Calder! One under 6' dynamic defenceman is enough. The rest of Habs "D" requires size.

[@christoperwaters8961]

@@CanadianBiPolarBearwhy does it matter if his brother is better? We have Lane, and he’s crushing it in his first season as an NHLer and is only going to get better.

I liked the transparency about everything ❤

[@mikeking-t2u]

Is it a coincidence that Demidovs ice time doubled since Habs brass went to see him play and meet with Rottenburg lol? Seems like a big black briefcase went with them buying the ice time Demidov deserves!

[@Davidov956]

I believe that stability, the stability that Kent Hughes uses to direct the ship is very important to building chemistry and culture on a hockey team. You have to remember, these players are young men and their confidence can be easily shaken. Hughes and Gorton are doing a phenomenal job at building their confidence, creating that culture and the results are starting to reflect that.

[@mauricedevereaux6573]

I wonder if bringing in Andrei Markov back on the team in a coaching/mentor (and translator) role for Demidov and for Lane Hutson might be a good idea.

[@appletile2887]

These two commentators are too young to understand that there is no defenseman that can compare to Bobby Orr. When Bobby took to the ice he put on a show like no other. Everyone rose from their seat in whatever stadium he played in just to watch his amazing moves. He was in a league all by himself. Too bad all these young fans never saw the superstars of yesterday play. In those days, teams were allowed to do anything to stop star players. Gretzky's 894 goals are a comparative joke when you compare them to Gordie Howe's 802 goals. When Howe played a 20 goal season was an accomplishment, in Gretzky's inflation 80's it was 60 goals. Ovie as a goal scorer better compares to Howe, but Howe is still the man. Both Ovie & Howe were goal scorers throughout their career. Howe almost lost his life in a game, getting a fractured skull. The oldtimer hockey fanbase has a real understanding of the real stars who played the game. One record Montreal never managed to tie or break is when the Red Wings finished first in the league 7 years in a row. There top line had Lindsay, Abel & Howe who terrified the league.

[@FitnessTraveler-kp6zy]

Followed this kid in school before NHL. I knew all along. He was going to be a super star no matter his size.

[@markhodge7]

I still say there was a breifcase full of Molson green " requested" to get more Demidov icetime.

[@simondesjardins4085]

Russian are all about their image. I'm sure Kent also told Roman that a better Ivan would mean more compliments about the SKA program and the wonders it did.

[@Thebestintheworld-3110]

Great video go habs go❤❤

[@mikeolmstead340]

You guys are great, Hutson is the real deal.

Thanks guys

No worries I got a good feeling . Dah Habs are going to be alright . GO HABS GO 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉

[@chansevigen1328]

Habs biggest need is a 2C to anchor Dach and Laine on that second line.

[@CanadianBiPolarBear]

Dach is center , why would dach still be on line 2 if they trade for a center.

[@chansevigen1328]

Because he is FAR better on the wing. The only reason he plays Center is because nobody else on the roster can.

[@CanadianBiPolarBear]

@chansevigen1328 so 2 right wingers on the same line you want then lol. I agree we need a 2nd line C , even though we have a 2nd line center playing 1C , but not to move dach to the wing , he was drafted as a center , he hasnt developed cus he keeps getting moved to the wing and injured. If we trsde for a center , dvorak goes to the press box and dach slides between anderson and gallagher ...the real problem is newhook , when demidov comes there is literaly no place in the line up for newhook

[@chansevigen1328]

CanadianBiPolarBear I Agree on Newhook As for Dach however. Aside from the fact his production has been better on the wing he also struggles in the face off circle. Your two RW comment on same line is silly as Dach has looked great in past stints on the top line playing LW with Suzy n Cauf.

[@jonmaxwell7143]

Hage could be that 2C

[@Adambroadfoot]

Gents, love Lane Hutson but let’s pump the breaks a tad. We can’t put him in the HOF yet. Looking great though.

[@jackmac6304]

You shouldn't even think about Lane being the best defenceman ever until he has a handfull of 100+ point seasons behind him like Bobby Orr had. Orr was the Gretzky of defencemen. And I'm a diehard Habs fan. That said he is an amazing player and may very well get there, he's so fun to watch.

[@milkcollins4764]

You absolutely!!! Ship out the vets this year, especially if we are in a playoff spot or just outside. No way we keep armia, Savard, Dvorak, and potentially Evans. I’d like to see some type of trade for long term solutions not draft capital. Unless we use the draft capital to trade for players like Dach.

[@reevesj]

Orr is best D in history of hockey....love Hutson skills though - GO HABS GO!!!

[@jeanregaudie]

Best habs draft pick if the last 40 years. Would be a good stats to have. "Best draft pic in habs history?"

[@ericm.1245]

Hey guys I really like Lane Hutson but you are getting way ahead of yourselves if you are talking about being the best defenceman ever. He hasn’t even completed a season so let’s see after 5 years and the wear and tear of playing in the league for awhile and then do a comparison with other great d.

[@antr7493]

did putin get some season tickets ?

[@aimanliser58]

"Point Making Machine" Well said Jesse! From day one, l've said: its the steal of the draft, he should be first overall. Authentic generational player, the next BO!

[@cmpaintball131]

We don't need more draft picks we need nhl ready players trading away players for picks is idiotic

[@TaigaShaman]

Can Habs hire Walter White as Assistant Head Chef?! 😂

[@lancegallant3647]

holy fack the boys would be flyyyyyyying with the blue gue

[@mikeking-t2u]

We have the youngest team in the league and are in the mix for a playoff spot during a rebuild! If some fans want to discredit Hughes, Gorton and MSL then they are delusional! They are geniuses simple as that! I have faith in their plans! We are I. Good hands and other teams around the league are stating to see it and point it out!

[@randylavoy6196]

Would like to see Hughes go after PETTERSON .. OR . ..EHLERS ..!! MAJOR ADD ONS ..!!! HOPE they don't overwork Hutson ..!! Points are great but his ice time ...is a huge increase compared to his NCAA ice time ..!! GHG .!!

Ok. But he’s NOT competing against rookie Crosby or rookie McDavid

[@CanadianBiPolarBear]

No😂

Sanctions be dammed. Kent Hughes has a Hockey Team to run. Not sure if this was the smartest move.

[@jeffepstein4971]

Saying he might be the best defensemen to ever play the game is absurd. Love the kid but that’s an absurd thing to say.

We need to trade Reinbacher before its too late this guy had 3 major injuries since his draft year. He wont stand for long when he will make the jump in the nhl. He has a big knee problems and seemenly seem to be soft

[@CanadianBiPolarBear]

That was a huge mistake by hughes , reality is if he drafted properly with the 2nd 1st in 2022 and taken maverik lamerux instead of slafs buddy mesar that is garbage we would of never looked at a right handed dman amd drafted mitchkov...now we are kind of stuck with reinbacher till he proves himself , here is hoping he at very least becomes a rh guhle . Thank God bergevin drafted mailoux

[@Full.Time.Watcher]

​​​​@@CanadianBiPolarBearits not just that they got Reinbacher with a top 5 pick the guy who is projected to be a top 4 D and not even on the top 2 is kinda crazy to get that with a top 5 pick. Look at it today they got a solid top 4D carrier for Barron and u go back in time they used a top 5 pick for a 4D 💀 One hand Barron for a top 4 RD second hand top 5 pick for Reinbacher a top 4 RD............

[@Full.Time.Watcher]

​@@CanadianBiPolarBearjust look how the Reinbacher pick feel even more stup!d today Reinbacher projected to be a top 4RD reached with a top 5 pick the other hand the habs got Carrier a top 4RD Defencement for Barron... just to make sure you see how much they gived alot for not much in return
