Habs stars filmed during private outing at a pub as fan's actions draw criticism

There is a video currently circulating widely on the web, and it's frustrating many Montreal Canadiens fans.
And I absolutely agree with those who consider this to be completely unacceptable.
"Just saw a video of a rude fanboy filming Habs players hanging out in MTL as they look visibly annoyed.
We've personally ran into Habs players at this neighbourhood pub. They're just people too, and they're friendly if you act just cool and give them their space and privacy."

Very well said!
If I were in the shoes of the Habs players in that video, I would have lost my patience too, and I would have been annoyed.
Unacceptable gesture from a Montreal Canadiens fan toward team players, including Cole Caufield, Jakub Dobes, and Juraj Slafkovsky
Here is the video in question, right here:
Here is another excellent comment under the video, which sums up the situation very well:
"Just my thoughts and hopefully what I'd do. DON'T shove a phone in their face. Tell them sorry to interrupt but if they could an autograph. Just be respectful"
That's really the basics.
I think this video is simply a good reminder of the importance of respecting players outside the rink, respecting their privacy and their personal space (when you run into them in a restaurant, for example), and especially when they're with their wives/partners.
