I’m really impressed that this thread wasn’t ruined by the time I finished watching the whole video.

 

[Vachon23]

Maybe I’m wanting to much because I still like it but I would have like to have more inside on draft day and on the Dach trade

 

[SlafySZN]

That was amazing seeing Hughes calling Dach right after the trade!

 

[Hacketts]

6/10

Needed way more raw footage and dialogue, it was a bit dull.

More HuGo, less LaBo.

 

[xX SEYF Xx]

KH: they didn't like the 13th pick... But they like Dach

 

[FF de Mars]

Lapointe reminds me of Bergevin.

 

[Hins77]

I liked when Gorton said. Something likes. /: don’t fall in love in some players. Most of « NHL role player » were already good contributor on their junior years.

 

[Doc5]

That was great!
My biggest takeaways was how much of a presence Bobrov command when he speaks as well as how well respected Boucher is by the team.

Becomes apparent why Gorton brought Bobrov along with him. Right or wrong, he isn’t a yes man.

Agree, at least in this video, Bobrov looked like the one driving the show, draft wise

 

[McGees]

Love when teams have these videos, that was great.
Wish they left in the $h!t talking about players they didn't draft

 

[Gravity]

Would've loved to see the interview with Wright and Cooley.

Would've loved to see the interview with Wright and Cooley.

Don’t think they can do that though since they don’t belong to the Habs

 

[Chadstudsky]

Great video thanks for posting!

 

[Scriptor]

I liked the video. Of course, some trade tactics aren't discussed -- and shouldn't be. Good enough to say they worked hard at it around the clock over a 48-hour period.

Makes the other GM look like a hard negotiator and keeps Hughes' and the Habs' reputation as classy trade partners.

Also liked the point Gorton made about role players having been real contributors at some point before defining their role. Hell, Carbonneau was a 50-goal scorer in Junior!

So, don't fall in love with the character if there is no high end skill at the root. Habs looking for skill AND character, not character above skill!

Slafkovsky, IMO, was taken because, apart from the monster size and skill that was gleaned, was constantly improving under pressure. That says a lot about his potential to grow as a Hab prospect in the high pressure environment that Montreal is.

Great video. Slaf may have gone 1st but you can see he s still a project that needs seasoning. I really hope he plays 0 NHL games this year, regardless of AHL production. Let him develop into a star before he has to deal with the Bell Center spotlight.

 

[Richiebottles]

'Call Kirby Dach'

 

[Tyson]

That was so well done. What a breath of fresh air this new management team is.

 

[calder candidate]

This was a great video, the scouting meeting look a lot more relax and inclusive the the last video

 

[Jack Skellington]

I liked Lapointe scaring that nerd who had no answer for why he liked the player other than he’s good

Where?

 

[sheed36]

That was a pretty interesting watch and I'm still not happy that you traded Romy out of town Hughes so this move better work out for you.

What I always keep saying. 99% of the time, the worst 4th liner would have been a PPG at one point in lower leagues.

Also, in that group, Shutron seemed to be a little intimidated there...lol.

Obviously in those videos, you are not going to see them talking smack about kids but one day, I would love that we hear them talking good about other possibilities they had in mind. Just to avoid Timmins-like revisionist histories. All great to have Mesar at 26 and even think Beck was worth of the 26th pick...but was there anybody out there talking about Kulich? No need to have statements bashing Kulich...just keep the good ones out there. Nothing wrong with praising a guy you end up not taking...Really wonder what was Routa take on Kulich...

As far as analytics are concerned, that's exactly how I'd use them. I wouldn't start using it...but if there's a group in there with some kind of hesitation between players, analytics would kick in and help me decide. And I'm pretty sure it could help it every time it's used.

 

[Whitesnake]

Where?

Seemed to be talking to Shutron there with an unknown player. Now...if we want to know which player...it has to be about the OHL. Del Bel Belluz? Goyette?

I liked his take on Slaf a lot.
