My thoughts on the game…My nitpicky bad: Habs slow 1st period. I love Gally but he should not be on the PK esp defending the point. I'm still going to harp on our D…wishing they tied up sticks or did something to the opponents standing around the net other than just stand by them and too much puck watching. Xhekaj still making bad decisions (interference call) which is not a good sign. Ok, got that out of my system..the good which was a lot: Nice to see Demidov getting more ice time and seeing him use his shot. Imagine Demidov and Dobeš fighting for the Calder (yes I know NYI Schaefer & wow does he look good!)? I was really impressed with Dach's game…very engaged, skating super well, used his body to check and protect puck, best game yet! I like seeing him and Veleno together. I'm still on the fence w/Dobson (very mobile for big man, and super calm, but wish he was a tad more physical and not the best defensively for $9.5mil, I remain patient with him) but his presence has allowed Matheson less pressure, so better results. I thought their special teams has improved. Edm was a tough one but PP improving, and PK was ok (still think they need to play more aggressive). As DD said, nice bounce back win…so kudos to this young team bc they easily could have crumbled after Van scored first. On to Seattle! Go Habs Go!
Crazy how natural and smooth Demidov is. He is effortless. Never rushed, never seems to overthink or pressured by the moment. He will definitely blossom into a superstar by the end of the season. I'm sure he'll get 70-80 pts as a rookie. His dangles, his vision, his passes, his confidence are already elite. Imagine he starts playing on a regular basis on the top line with Suzuki and Caufield… yeah, it will be electric.
St- Louis has his team steaming ahead in the standings. His main message at training camp of urgency made it through with his players. And he is learning himself and making changes right away like benching players that aren’t performing and promoting when they are hot. Dobes starts the game, Demidov on the first wave of the PP and Xhekai benched after another bad penalty.
won 2 of 3 and the loss was stolen by crooked refs…. did u see no one got fined for comments as the whole world agreed the refs were terrible and need retraining. Demidov has such a great future…he is smooth as silk and passes like a dream.
100% shouldve been 3-0 out west… but we all know how that went. Hell the entire league does even last night all the announcers were going in on the refs for that one… THEY EVEN gave us the refs names, best hope those two dont come to Montreal 😅
The first and, to some extent, the second period were disappointing. But then the guys really turned it on and played a fantastic third period: focused and dynamic, they played the Vancouver Canucks dizzy at times. Their tremendous effort was rewarded with a well-deserved victory. Go Habs go.
Loves your channel. I have to be honest, I have a problem in the fact that when Dobes let’s 2 goals in and he cannot do the miracle save, it’s ok but when it’s Monty, he was weak and did not do the save to give his team a chance. That to me is unfair and people, medias included, need to start being more objective. The first 3 goals on Monty were deflected and no chance for any goalie but everybody gives it to him……anyways, just wanted to give my opinions. Very glad that Dobes has a great start but we need to have a wider view on things. I know that the attitude against Monty is mostly driven by emotions but give him a break everyone 😉 go habs go!

I laughed a few times this video, thanks dekes
Took too long bro
Arber benched again. I really want him to succeed here but he is making it hard on himself.

Ivan Le Terrible !!!
The NHL needs to add a minor penalty for TACKLING to the Rule Book. 😊
Didn't know you were a Québécois, brother! I thought you were from Niagara

Dobes 7-0-0 since the mattress picture came out 🙂
He's a keeper. Habs started slow (understandable) and picked up in the 3rd.
3 games/4 day's/2 win's! Perfect
won 2 of 3 and the loss was stolen by crooked refs…. did u see no one got fined for comments as the whole world agreed the refs were terrible and need retraining. Demidov has such a great future…he is smooth as silk and passes like a dream.
We are finally getting the fruit of our patience! Amazing Go Habs Go ❤
Sample size 1 feedback, take it as such:
Great analysis. Love the enthusiasm.
Not too fond of the repeated ace Ventura and now singing 😂

Sign Matheson now not later.
Demidov is the new Kharlamov.
I love our team! They all work hard, and are so much fun to watch!!
Very happy for the win last night. Unfortunately, I thought Dobes was so so …
Evander Kane us buddies with Kash Patel. Suffice to say is decision making off the ice is equally as poor as on the ice.
Do you realize we could have 3 Calder nominees this season? Demigod, Kappy and Dobes.
Don't quit your day job Drew! Ha, you are definitely a character.
I'm sad for Laine, but we have depth. He just doesn't fit. However, if he recovers maybe we can flip him with retention for a 3rd or something.
How Demidov made it to 5th overall is crazy, already a superstar just think in 2-3 years what he's gonna do.
it wasn't a mistake that MSL made on PP, he is doing exactly what he did with hutson, make him earn it, make him learn the game
Convert Arber to play on the wing he’d be less a liability. Rotate him in and out of the lineup when needed, or unfortunately, may have to trade him.
The first and, to some extent, the second period were disappointing. But then the guys really turned it on and played a fantastic third period: focused and dynamic, they played the Vancouver Canucks dizzy at times. Their tremendous effort was rewarded with a well-deserved victory. Go Habs go.
'ee-VAHN dee-MEE-dov' is the correct pronunciation of his name. What a start for this guy. Let's hope we get back-to-back Calder Trophy winner!
Monty plays next. Doby right after
has anyone ever told you that you look like j j watt defensive end formerly of the houston texans of the n f l b t w love demidovs game very skilled
The habs Steve dangly dangle is this guy.
DREW is awesome.
I have a nickname. Ivan (THE INCREDIBLE) Demidov. How about that?
This is why Kane has been on 6 teams.
Could see us having 2 top lines pretty soon
Montreal is building something pretty exciting. It’s not your parents’ New Jersey Devils, my friends

Its crazy how we have 3 great people to race for calder
Dobes:He hasnt gotten the chance of playing 25+ games until now he can get the calder. 10 points
Chance:61% of calder
Winning points?:Very often
Demidov:Amazing plays and keeps doing good plays and can get people falling 😂
9 points
Chance:60% of calder
Point scoring:Often
Kapanen:Hes been scoring alot as he started with a SHG and has 4 goals and 3 assist for 7 points!!
Chances:45% of calder
Point scoring:Kinda often
Note:(I know it doesn't add up to 100% but thats what I honestly think)
Dude putting everything there to be steve dangle.
