“#1 centres aren’t available”
O’Reilly gets traded like a week later and wins a Cup with the Blues
That SOB just REFUSED to « lose » a trade. Serves him well, bad for us.

Whoa, whoa! He has 6 years left, counting this season. He's signed until 2030

VGK proved unequivocally that Bergevin is full of shit lol
They are hard, but unlike MB, Hughes still try to make them work and seems to have a better grasp of the value of his players (on the ice and trade).
Other teams fans:
First "His playing style works vs juniors only".
Then "His playing style works outside the NHL only".
And at last "The Habs are so lucky to have the guy"...

That deke is so Kovalevsque, or dare I say Datsyukian. I could watch that all day. His hands are mesmerizing.
We are used to it; welcome to this side of the Habs fandom

Demidov is a HAB
This f***ing kid man.. Can't believe he's ours.
he starts the high fives with the team staff. Great attitude.
I’m so used with the Habs not having nice toys that my butt cheeks will remain very tight until the kid actually lands at Trudeau airport . I actually don’t want him to be an all star in the KHL just in case uncle Vlad decides Demidov has to enroll in military service and stay in the motherland a few years more. I have zero trust in that regime or in that league.
I want Hughes to send James Bond over there and snatch the kid to bring him home asap.

It happened so fast and I thought the puck hit the crossbar.

I was about to type "hard to fathom he was drafted in the same position as Kotkaniemi" and then I remebered Kotkaniemi was actually 3rd overall. 
What is hard to fathom is that Patrik Laine (a 6'5 2nd overall who has scored 44 goals in this league and is PPG when healthy) might be our 4th best winger next season.

We knew the Flyers tried to get the 4th overall pick. Did they target Demidov if they got the pick from the BlueJackets?
They probably wanted a center considered what they did with their pick and who they took. So Lindstrom was probably their target.

Me every time I see a new Demidov highlight
Having a GM with a law degree who has experience communicating with GMs, not teammates in a locker room (not bashing former players here just stating facts) is what we're seeing here. I mean look at the deal Hughes got Nurse, the guy is a master negotiator and it's a very important skill for a modern day GM.
Bergevin is right, trades are hard to complete in the NHL which is why you need exceptionel communication skills, that is not something he possesses.
The results speak for themselves.

Go Habs Go
The hands on the 13:14 chance are off the charts, this is ridiculous
