�The Montreal Canadiens could hit a real home run' - Nick Bobrov in the behind-the-scenes draft video
The Montreal Canadiens once again had a solid summer season, and Kent Hughes seems to have made some really good decisions.
We were, of course, more recently talking about the acquisition of Patrik Laine and the signings made, but it really all started in Las Vegas, at the 2024 NHL Draft.
In the excerpt published by the Canadiens, there are several interesting statements, including one involving a possible major trade.
But that's not all.
The Montreal Canadiens aimed for a home run in Las Vegas, and Kent Hughes seems to have pulled it off
Also in the revealed excerpt, we notably hear Nick Bobrov directly mention this.
«This guy's skills are incredible. We could hit a real major home run.»
- Nick Bobrov
Yes, the co-director of amateur scouting for the Montreal Canadiens seemed to be talking about Ivan Demidov here, even though it's not clearly indicated in the excerpt.
Yes, he really seems to like him!
And he's not the only one among the Habs' management to think so:
«He makes me jump out of my seat when I watch him.»
- Shutron
«I think he's that elite and that much better than his peers.»
- Tenute
«I don't think he'll be available at our draft position, but if he is, take him!»
- Rockstrom
We love it! This really promises a lot for the release of the full video.
