Whoa!!! First, I am very happy for you. You must be having such a blast, and just an all around great experience so far. But that Xhekaj shoutout was pretty wild man!! Thank you!!!!
Great video Dekes ! Lucky bugger ! Must have been great to get to talk with so many of the guys. Especially Slafkovsky and Arber. Hoping for a good game tonight ! GHG
Takes a big man to admit his mistakes. Especially when those mistakes concern...a very big man like Slaf. Personally, I think it was the right choice, and that as he develops, Juraj will silence every critic of that pick.
Great video. Have a blast in Montreal today and tonight at the game. The apology thing was hilarious. Slav definitely took it all in stride. Hope he scores tonight. GHG
He did! That’s all I was hoping for haha. I really wanted him to score too it would of capped off the weekend perfectly but a W was just as satisfying 👍🏻
The Habs are a bunch of happy kids playing the game they love. The cup will come for sure. Caufield will score the winner in that cup game in the future.
We need to draft another good goalie first or steal one from somewhere else. Our current goaltender situation doesn't leave a very good taste in my mouth. I'm hoping Hughes can pull a rabbit from the hat. Can't win a cup without a great goalie. Its not the 80's where you could just outscore your opponent to make up for poor goaltending.
Right from the start, when they had just arrived on the scene, it was either Hughes or Gorton, that quite matter-of-factly stated . . . " we gotta get bigger " .
Great vlog DD (as usual!). Question: As I have not had the pleasure of ever seeing a Hab practice LIVE before, did you see or did anything stand out to you as you watch a Habs practice? Any specific player stand out or MSL coaching style during a practice...I assume they were not in attendance but did you see Hughes/Gorton? Nice to see some players stop to talk to fans, and you. Have fun in Montreal!
I just noticed that they all seem to be having the time of their lives at practice and love what they do. Looks like they’re quite literally living the dream.
Thr fact that i used to live near that complex, when it was new. And didnt go at all. Because i was a kid and didn't know the timing. Now its probably one of my biggest regret 😭
Amazing Vid Drew!!! I’m going to the game against Tampa in Montreal this next week, how do you know when practice is and like the timing? I was hoping to see some players and maybe grab an autograph!!!
Been a habs fan since the 80's, I like your channel. What current drafted hab has the best chance at developing into a point per game player in your opinion? I don't think Caufield or Slafkovsky will reach the point per game level. If Caufield can stay healthy, do you think he can reach the 50 goal plateau in his career as a hab? Its been so long its hard to recall the last time we drafted a point per game player or a 50 goal scorer. Also, with the speed of the game so much faster these days and injuries alot more common what is your opinion on removing checking completly from the game? Keep up the great work. I will never be able to afford to go to a habs game, and being in Northern Ontario habs games are blacked out, you make me so jelly.
Habs may be working on developing a streaming service in the future from what I’ve heard. We’ll see how that pans out, if it’s realistic. I’d say Nick is the closest to being a point per game player, or maybe even Lane Hutson if he genuinely becomes the player they expect him to be. Can’t see a day when hitting is removed from hockey. Maybe fighting someday, but not hitting I don’t think.
That's so awesome Deeksy!!! So let me clarify something. If if I'm friends with one of your friends and your now friends with Jake, Sam, Arber, Jesse, Justin and Juraj, does that mean their my friends now too? Lol. Enjoy the game tonight my friend. Go Habs Go!
Slaf has big issues at this time. He is tentative and lacks confidence. He is not strong on the puck. I think the injury last year, so early in his career, was a deep setback. Not sure if he will ever pan out to the level we all anticipated.
I don't believe you should have apologized to Juraj for expressing your preference for Montreal to draft someone else. I can't fully articulate my feelings at the moment, but I simply think it might have been better if you hadn't apologized.
It was done to try and get a laugh out of him, it was tongue and cheek, and it worked. No regrets. Regardless of what happens with him. It was a fun moment.

Goated
Great video, Drew. Slaf is a great kid and has taken being in Montreal all in stride.
Awesome apology to Slav. He was only 18 man a kid. He will be improving for sure. He's playing better and better😊

Haha! I'm sorry Juraj! Classic Drew. That was a funny bit! 😂
Nice of you to tell Arber about his biggest fan from overthere in Bonavista.
Lmao . Barron looked like he was gonna call the cops 😂
🤣
Maybe he did! 😄

@@lesterhopkins1973we drafted 3 goalies this draft
Nah its gonna be Anderson. He’s saving goals for clutch moments
Fowler is the man
@@Off_Grid_Gaming He may be but, my money is on Dobes. Dobes will be the dude.
Love Slaf. What a nice young guy! How cool was it to meet Arber? Matt's gonna be so Jelly!
newhook have such a bright smile is so awesome to see him im glad montreal got him for the next 3 years and i hope even more after that
Great video Drew!! wishing I was standing beside you the whole time...keep'em coming!
Inspirational vid Dekesy! I foresee my son & I making a trip to Brossard…keep on posting and Go Habs Go!
Merci!
Awesome vid Drew. Have a great weekend
One of your best videos....loved it.
Thanks so much 🙏🏻

Great post, Cooley will be the draft ranking winner in 2yrs. Wright in 7 yrs.

The way barron just stares LOL
😂😂😳😳
Purdy cool shout out!
Very cool video! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Are practices open for public, and is there a schedule somewhere?
This is great ❤ enjoy the game tonight dekes 🎉
Amazing Vid Drew!!! I’m going to the game against Tampa in Montreal this next week, how do you know when practice is and like the timing? I was hoping to see some players and maybe grab an autograph!!!
I follow Priyanta Emrith on twitter or other habs reported and they usually say what time practices are.
Sounds good thanks!!!
Nice video Drew i love it.

We’re ALL friends! 🤪
Sweet video.
yo do this again pls
Won’t be the last I’m sure
I think pearson deserves more minutes. He likes to shoot and we need more guys like that. I feel he could be a natural goal scorer
Apologizing too soon :) Time will tell, l wanted Cooley.
Awesome thanks 🔵⚪️🔴🏆
Looll Barron isn't effing around anymore. Kid ain't got no time for interviews. He's solidifying his place with the Habs.
He’s been much better than last year already. Not just because of the goals, just playing better in general.
@@DrewDekes 100%
Habs shock the world at every pick …
Lol you haven’t been wrong
To naozaj prosiť aby hral v KHL? Mali by ste prosiť Jura aby neodišiel z Montrealu. Pozdrav zo Slovenska.🇸🇰😂😂
Slaf has big issues at this time. He is tentative and lacks confidence. He is not strong on the puck. I think the injury last year, so early in his career, was a deep setback. Not sure if he will ever pan out to the level we all anticipated.
Far, far too early to have sincere doubts about what he’ll become. Rome wasn’t built in a day, or a year ie Slaf.
Live slaf love

Nothing against Juraj but his progress has been slow at best and when they do a redraft in a few years he might not be in the top 10.
In the end, Shane Wright will shine for the Kraken while Slaf will beg to play in the KHL.
🤣🤣
Aby ste vy neprosili jeho aby ostal v Montreale.😂😂 A teraz tá chvíľa nastala. Je 5. mája 2024. Pozdrav zo Slovenska.🇸🇰👍 Apropo kde máte Wright.
Still not wrong about Slaf, hasnt proven anything yet, too bad you couldn't get Suzuki or Caulfield on camera.
You must be fun at parties
@@Bcomplex Depends on the party
We waited for them. They get more attention/demand than anyone else. Can’t win em all
Wow. I've been there but it's still cool to see like this
Merci
Shane who? You should also apologize to Kent Hughes.
Next time I see him in a year or two when Slaf takes a notable step I will.
@@DrewDekes Slaf is far better than arrogant Shane right now. Can you imagine the howling if the Habs had him now???
