There's a black screen at the end of this video. Hahaha currently in the process of trying to edit that out.. My bad. I'm a little extra excited today.
Cheers
The black screen is when Toronto came on stage no one wanted to see it
The Black Screen is a sign of the awakening of the new Habs era of the Demigod 😂
It's fine that we didn't get to see your whole face anyways Junkie, I can still tell that Gary is the pretty one 😜
Thanks so much for the live update during the draft, it made it much more entertaining. Wish you'd kept going the whole way through!
I dont know much about this part of hockey and Im wondering if they'll be eligible or if its a possibility for them to play next season? Also, if lane hutson will play next season?
@@GxFan4tikDemidov will be play in 2025-2026 is contract in Russia(KHL) ends in 2025, Lane Hutson will likely play next year with Montreal
"Demidov is a hab" is a phrase i never thought i would hear, what a beautiful day to be a habs fan
Demidov and Hage I literally cannot believe the magic Kent pulled last night. And we still have our Trade a D for a top 6 forward card that we haven't pulled yet. This management staff is impressive as hell.
hage is a beast i used to play against him and he was untouchable
Celine Dion - Habs legend for life after announcing Demigod.
I was at work checking my phone feverishly near the end of my shift and was on cloud nine the rest of the night after. The draft was insane! Lots of teams seemed to get absolute steals with how far some of the top D-Men fell.
Celine, not 100% but still poised and elegant. Love it!
I can't wait to see 31-year-old veteran Jaromir Demidov play with 18-year-old rookie Mario Armia.
wait.............. what?
I thought my fellow Habs fans were delusional thinking Demigod would be available… but here we are. I’m so hyped! Hope you had fun during the stream Junkie 🍻
Same. I had very little hope
Take away of the story: We fans know nothing compared to what's really going on behind the scenes.
Expect the unexpected
@@damsquare-nh4mdExactly. I believe that there was a rumour that Demidov only wanted to play for a proper NHL team (ie Chicago or Montreal) with real pressure, and would have chosen to stay in Russia if his best option was Anaheim or a team like that. When Chicago picked Levshunov, Demidov was locked down.
Probably the best pure talent drafted by MTL since the great Guy Lafleur
Shhhh…that’s a lot of pressure to put on the kid. But I hope you’re right!
He thrives on pressure
I swear people were saying the same thing about Slaf but I guess we'll see!
@@15DiggitySlaf is very talented, but with him its more about how he has a 100% complete toolkit, he can skate, he can pass, he can shoot, he can play physical, he can forecheck, he can play defense.
Slaf is amazing because he can control all parts of the ice, but in terms of pure skill Demidov easily has him beat, he will never be a deploy in all situations guy like Slaf, but if you need a goal, Demidov is the superior choice.
@@15Diggity bullshit. Nobody ever compared Slaf to Lafleur. The guy is a beast but don’t have the same skill set as Demidov.
We got so many amazing young prospects, demigod, popcorn, Frodo, wawa, and Mario
Mario is in his own category of amazing
Yup and I guess you should go to the rock n try some of that bbq'd baloney for one more year
HOLY FRIG dear son I fergot about the great Mario oh imagine him and demigod standing side by each, sweet jesus and wawa being the turd.
I squealed like a 12 year old at a Taylor Swift concert. My wife looked at me like I dropped a deuce on her desk in the middle of teaching class. Worth it. Good job last night.
Habs got the best player in this draft. I was blown away watching Demidov’s interviews after the draft. Kid has been watching Kobe Bryant videos to establish the Mamba Mentality and honing his killer instinct. I feel like I’m in a dream. And shout out to Queen Celine. Habs have always mastered making class moves to their iconic history and here’s another chapter. Hage is a beauty pick too.
Second best player*
@adamCarter20 he might be the best offensive player though. Skill wise he's on the same planet as celebrini
I'm in heaven with Demigod, the surpise Sennecke pick at third, gave us our elite forward.
Never been as impressed and certain of this habs team in my lifetime. Everyone is doing they're job as they should and this team is gonna be a well oiedl machine for many years to come. Keep up the great work everyone. Including you junkie ;)
Best management group since Sam Pollock
When Demidov cam out, i was screaming like a madman. I wanted him but i was sure he would be picked before 5...im glad i was wrong 😁
I was excited when we picked Slaffy, but this is another level of excitement, worthy of a Demigod!
BBQ'IN BOLOGNA IS EXACTLY WHAT HAS BEEN GOING ON. I LOVE YOU JUNKIE HAHAHBA
"Look at the creativity, which is like, second to Bob Ross" LMAO 😂
im a nucks fan but happy for you mtl fans. got some amazing picks!
the 25-26 season is gonna be epic
We will look back on yesterday as a huge piece of the successful rebuild ! Awesome live draft video by the way too ! Thanks so much for your hard work and behind the scenes talent !
The Kim jung un Cupid killed me ☠️ 🤣
Demigod is going to be an artist, so glad to have that kind of player donning le bleu blanc et rouge. True Habs heritage.
Demigod is bringing the cup back to the bell center
it's a team game, don't forget that buddy even McDavid couldn't
I am not sure Hage will be more useful than Beck, but times are good for sure! And they just drafted Koivu as I write this so good times!
demidov, hutson, hage, reinbacher, beck. future is BRIIIIGHT
reinbacher LOOOOL
@@justinwillness3162 what's so funny? He's the best defensive prospect they have had for a long time, learn some hockey
I was excited about this draft since the Lottery and I am NOT disappointed like last season. I'm really happy about Demidov and Hage looks like an interesting prospect too. Maybe day 2 has some surprises for us but Demidov already made this draft a win! The future looks bright..
The best thing to happen to this team since they drafted Guy Lafleur 50 years ago
Absolute steal of a draft this year.
The DEMIGODS have granted your wish!
"Bang Ding Ow"?
Why not? Since we already had the "Ho Lee Fuk", right??
Hopefully this is not one of those high hopes at this celebration time ..as the Canadiens have had some major busts …historically speaking ..time will tell and we are always hopeful that someone in the ivory tower knows something that we don’t know …..trallalala…
So excited about Hage too, that Man is going to represent the jersey with so much pride, definitely glad Kent locked him down
Draft is always a crapshoot, but I like both picks, and I love how much time has been spent building up the defence prospects. The flashy players are the fun ones to watch but the defensive ones keep you playing in the spring.
Ive already got my demidov jersey just left hocky life
the facially reconstructed paul byron comment made he spit out my drink.
we got our franchise player! He has a higher ceiling than Slafkovsky, Caufield and Suzuki.
I have never seen the Habs fanbase so collectively happy since June 24th 2021
Habs scored big time last night!
Demidov looks like a young skilled Malkin crossed with Kucherov with speed. WOW, guys got the JUICE! I just watched some highlights on TSN before getting this recommended. Real might recognize Real, but ordinary hockey fans can recognize really good. Big Whoopsi to the morons in Anaheim. YIKES!
I was surprised that we got the Demigod. I was literally praying for Columbus to pick lindstrom and I’m atheist! I was more surprised than sennecke.
Turn to Christ, dear brother, turn to Christ
Thanks for doing that last night Matt. Question.... what would Stampkos do to teach all these young guns the game and work ethic?
your lucky charms are coming together nicely soon your habs powers will return.
The most exciting draft i ever watched !
I’m gonna hit the Wi Tu Lo button instead…
What a pick! Get the shades on - the future looks sooo bright
"Demigod" is a name custom made for the Junkie!!
The core is looking pretty much complete now. All that might be needed now are some lower line wingers, a better goalie, and a right defenseman, but that can be done with UFAs once the Habs are a serious contender. The days of tanking might be over (not that I'd mind another good draft pick to round it out)
Habs drafted Jacob Fowler last year, best goalie prospect
Chicago picking Phil Collins 2nd was great. And so was Anaheim picking Sennecke!
Great pick. I had my concerns, but I trust our scouts to gauge the MHL performance and the injury issues. A true star. And Hage was a wonderful pick. Seems like a great kid and very skilled.
Kent said they actually had Hage higher on their draft list than Eiserman
no proof of that anywhere but l like hage :)
@@nasjon2969 Tony Marino said he asked Kent Huhges after the 1st round and Huhges said that Hage was higher on the Habs draft list than Eiserman was.
Gotta say I was shocked that he was still available at 5 ! Pretty pumped for when this guy gets here. Hage I really knew nothing about but sounds like he could be a good add.
Stream died just as we were getting to Hage!! Was fun though! What a draft year! Ivan is a Hab.
Sir Junkie--- Is he Paul Stanley--- is he Gene Simmons... the Intrigue was KISS-ESQUE-----
The Montréal Canadiens have needed another big brawler, a "Chara", for a while now. Which is the reason why I'm glad we've picked Céline Dion in this draft
gives me Datsyuk vibes
I'm curious if by trading up to 21, if Hughes was after Boisvert (Hughes says Hage was the target of course). Nonetheless, Hage has a balanced game, speed/skating, scoring, PP, playmaking, some physicality, 2 way center. Demidov ranks on an MHL list with Kucherov, no need to say more except hope his knees are good. Montreal selected NO ONE under 6 feet tall, how about that! In fact, they drafted TWO underdog big forwards, one 6'5 the other 6'4. Tyler Thorpe, if he continues to develop, is a heavy shot puck deflecting monster with physicality that comes with low penalty minutes. 6'5" 210 lb 18 yr old winger still adjusting to his 6" growth spurt, has an NHL work rate, moves well for his size , 23 goals, 21 assists in 51 games in his first WHL season. 130th 5th round pick that was expected to go late 3rd or 4th round. Then Ben Merrill, 6'4" center, displays a hard shot and a willingness to compete for pucks and move his feet. Big guys often develop slower, in a couple/few years either might become a welcome power forward. TheScore grades Montreal's 2024 draft picks an A+!!!! Even the 210th pick Russian played decent as a VHL rookie(= Russian AHL) was a good pick, needs to add muscle though. Only other team graded A+ was San Jose.
Yes b'y. Demigod, Hage, little Koivu. Some draft. A+ . I thought that dude with Celine was Pauley B at first also. Kent seems to like Celine a little more than his wife may be comfortable with. HABS BABY!!!!!
Wow. The Sleazy ex-used car salesman/Bobblehead NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman has turned the Hockey League into a Sport Entertainment that is like Professional Wrestling where everything is pre-deterimined. Those high draft picks are getting special attention to look good.
Looks a lot like Pavel Datsyuk, hope it works out.
Please... We all know the first thing Gordon and Hughes thought after Celine called Demidov : '' should we tell her we wanted to draft a D man?'' ... In all seriousness, pretty glad they finally had the balls to draft some talent. To think we could have had a line up including both Michkov and Demidov.
One thing I feel pretty confident about, Demidov cannot possibly outperform fans expectations 😂😂
Those clips look magic. If he works out well in the development program, we could be talking a Kucherov type of player ... maybe even, no I can't say the name of a certain double trophy winner ......... yet.
PP1:
Slafkovsky
Caufield Suzuki Demigod
Hutson
🥵
So, by the time Demidov arrives to play *full time* in Montreal, perhaps Brendan Gallagher will be long gone so Demidov can wear his #11 jersey. 🤞
Best management team since the Sam Pollock era. Thanks a ton, guys. Best draft I've ever watched.😊😊😊
Yeah, Ok he will change his style once he gets trucked over by Trouba, Gudas and other hard hitting defensemen. don't forget the ice is much smaller in NHL. He still will be good though I think.
Bro Suzuki was 3 points away from 80 playing with Caufield post injury on one side and a nobody on the other. Give him the credit he deserves.
DEMIGOD
Montreal had themselves a hell of a draft. The blandhawks desperately needed offense so of course they take a defenseman and a forward who they could have drafted at #20. Montreal gets A+ for draft Chicago C+.
Hey junkie any chance you’ll be able to post your live stream from the fix? I didn’t get a chance to check it out live.
''We've been BBQing baloney....'' Funny stuff man! Keep it up
Oiler fan here, congratulations montreal! I've Always had a ton of respect for the montreal canadians the yankees of hockey what a great history. I hope their an exciting team to watch and can make another cup run in a few yrs. I hope these kids can be the difference makers you need.
We haven't had a 100 point player since Naslund in 86. We might have drafted one last night in Demidov who has the potential to get 100 points.
the #2 guy @5 is nuts you stole one this time, thankfully you dropped the ball on Michkov.
But why they didnt grab Mitchkov last year is still blowing my head...
You need 3 good drafts during a rebuild to be a contender.
I would rate our last 3 drafts as more than good. I would say outstanding.
We’re in fucking business in Habs land
How does this change the fact that the Florida Panthers are the Stanley Cup champions?
great livestream. and partial face reveal
Honestly, this takes some of the sting out of being first overall the year before Bedard's draft year. This is big.
Aatos Koivu is a Hab
This guy even look like kovalev , could someone put a pic of both of them side by side at 18
Who else but Kim Jong Un would be a better Cupid?
Great players for sure. Just one little problem, they’re going to play for the habs eh 😜.
Let the quest for 25 begin now we just need a leadership like stamkos
Just make sure they keep the Jackeyes brothers for protection great day for Hab fans
I pretty pumped with these 2 picks looking good for future .
The future is certainly much brighter now. If the Habs can manage to sign or trade for a good goalie, this team is going to be scary good.
Habs drafted Jacob Fowler last year, he’s the best goalie prospect there is
Slaf, demi, suzuki, caufield, dach, hutson, gulhe...never seen so much talent since the last cup.
Even the last cup, outside of roy damphousse. muller and desjardins, very average 93 team
This one looks like it's going to be a monster team. If Jacob fowler becomes the next price or close to it, holy shit.
We are stacked on Defence.
this team will be a juggernaut in a few years.
Demigod
Was lookin forward to what ya thought about draft day...and day 2 habs royalty aatos koivu!
WTF !!!!! DEMIGOD AND HAGE !!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I CANT BULIEVE IT !❤❤❤❤❤❤
Calm down with Domidov let the kid play and dont put pressure on him !
Idc if youre a fan or absolutely hate the habs.. they won this draft by a mile..
I am really happy with are two first round picks
You know, if he is as good as we hope he is, his nickname will be ‘demigod’.
Very excited for what the habs are gonna look like 3 or 4 years from now
I can't wait to see the powerhouse in a few years ..... Haters are going to hate :)
Hes the real deal. Im exciting to watch him play!
If he played in the CHL he would have been drafted number one
KOIVU!
Reinbacher looking like a 1000IQ move now
not really, no lol.
Not at all imagine having
demidov and mitchkov on pp line which habs could of had
@alphamale4182 idk look at the leafs, glad we got an RD
@@thundershock720 leafs are a team known for choking but I get your point, I do however disagree since Reinbacher was ranked 15 to 20 on most scouts list picked at top 5 instead of a generational talent I will never feel good about that and will always wonder what a pp line would look like with Hutson, demidov and mitchkov
@alphamale4182 cyotes, Fylers both wanted him he was a top 10 pick
