This single-handedly made this year the best nhl draft I’ve ever seen
Yeah I have to give it to Gary he really riled us up and delivered this trade announcement like a real pro
Crazy atmosphere. Nothing beats the Montreal hockey crowds. Best fans, best place for a draft.
say what you will about Gary Bettman, but he is extremely self-aware of his reputation and knows how to play to the audience
He's well trained in this ive observed also. He's still the most hated sports commissioner & and prolly the least masculine of them
Yeah I honestly gained quite a bit of respect for him last night...
He doesn't deserve the hate. He's the most successful NHL commissioner of all time lol. People just like to hate on authority. Especially the young ones.
@@Daniels656993 You can keep posting the same stupid comment everywhere but at least try to find out why he's getting boo'd. Bettman screwed Montreal and the people of Quebec many times over the years.
@@Daniels656993 if you think it's young people you haven't been paying attention the last few decades lol
I'll give it to Gary , he went full heel on this one .
I kinda love him lmao
I like how he embraces the boos lmao
Lmao
Gary as WWE commissioner!
Rare W for Bettman on how he handles the boos and takes it as a compliment.
This is a “he had us in the first half” moment.
I am still waiting for the phone call that I have been drafted by any team :)
taking shots at the habs fan, as a habs fan i still find it hilarious lol
Those who boo are not fans. They're punks.
@@sweiland75 bettman deserves all the hate he gets.
Same here hahahh
@@sweiland75 him getting booed is tradition
@@sweiland75 u rly just say punks 😂 🤡
"We have a trade to announce" is the best sentence all of sports. Good job Mr Batman
Finally a Canadian team does something big at the draft.
Not big they are doing the same every year... Selecting the wrong player as their first pick....
@@ReneRajotte yeh we’ll see about that buddy
Finally... since 2018? They literally did the same thing : first pick Kot and trade Sergachev for Drouin.
@@plastique45 they reached for KK lol. Slafkovsky was the number one pick this year. 2 other teams passed on Wright.
I think DeBrincat to the Sens is every bit as game changing.
Say whatever about Bettman but he knows how to play off the fans
You can see their soul leave their bodies on the first trade
Cause people are losers putting their life and soul into a bunch of rich dudes playing a sport. It's embarrassing. 😂
@@anythinggoes5574 mad you’re not those rich dudes playing a sport? You’re good with your 9 to 5?
@@anythinggoes5574 You're probably the fun one at parties
@@anythinggoes5574 Wierd coming from someone one viewing a video on sports, it's players and all them people full of cash. Envious much ? Maybe when you have something to sell that many people want, you might join the club!!! Welcome to capitalism buddy!
@@Daniels656993 Lol, I'm a staunch capitalist. You're preaching to the choir buddy.
Patrick Kane is gonna be all by himself when he faces the Avalanche on their opening night.
He will miss Debrincat, Dach on the other hand was invisible most nights anyway. Hope he can turn it around in Montreal.
Lol so true. 1 man team now.
Its honestly unbelievable how he can get 90+ points (I think it was 92 this year?) with THIS team around him, he's insane
I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s moved for a pick or 2. He’s gone at seasons end, might as well pick up another draft pick and prospect to go along with eating some of the cap hit.
He’s likely to get traded too.
Oh I wish I were there. That place is buzzinggg
People here forgetting that nearly the entire Habs management is different now and that they should not expect the same mistakes of the past 5-7 years with player development.
As true as this is, this can be a double-edged sword: we can't expect the same mistakes again BUT we have NO IDEA what kind of mistake can happen! Let's call it a high risk, high reward mgmt team.
Personally, I'm hoping for a full rebuild where they'll let the new guys sit in the AHL this season so that we can end in the worst 5 teams again and expect another good draft. Once this' done, we'll be able to go all in for many seasons to come.
Tldr: Slaf, Mezar, Hutson in Laval for next year plz.
@@Kin08006 Two players in the draft were said to be NHL ready. Slafkovsky and Nemec. Why would either need to go to the minors?
@@SmoothOperator2013 because Wright was also said to go first.
Never assume that what's suppose to happen will happen. We'll see when we get there.
As I mentioned, I'd rather let our new guys develop with Laval so that we can have a chance for good prospect next years draft while not stumping the growth of our current talent.
@@Kin08006 I would agree under the previous management, but MSL is not Julien or Therrien or even ducharm. If they're ready, let them play in the nhl. I'm not saying rush them.
Last 25 years
Imagine hearing your name on a trade and seeing the fans go nuts
So essentially the Canadiens traded Romanov, picks #66 & #98 for Dach.
I'd say that's quite a steal.
Romanov was a freebie 2nd round pick from Danault trade (for weisse & fleishman). Pick #38 in '18 + #66 & #98 in '22 for pick #3 of' 19, on paper its pretty good
Eh it could be a steal. They bought low on a prospect that has not lived up to his potential thru 3 years. If each develops into what he was supposed to be then it’s a steal, if he remains as is not really
It’s really a steal! Gorton and Hughes capitalized on their 14 picks, knowing Romanov isn’t quite what we expected and that def left side is quite stacked with very good prospect!
Don't forget pick #13
I wanted the Habs to trade for the 2nd pick this year in order to get Slaf and Wright. I was willing to give a lot for this to happen.
Habs mgmt managed to get Slaf, keep some of its pick, trade a player they couldnt resign and grab a 3rd pick C from just a couple years back. I'd say I got my wish and then some!
Has a habs fan how can you not love this lol? Gary rolled with the punches and at :20 you literally know he loves it. He made the comment ‘ you are losing energy due to the booing not being so loud, he made that comment to fire up the bell centre faithful. Safe to say habs fan base and Gary bettman have found a soft spot for each other.
Hockey is not a sport in Montreal; it's a religion! Amen! 👌👍❤️🇨🇦
it's not montreal the team stinks
Great trade for the habs. This is a sad day for the Chicago Blackhawks. How do you trade Debrincat and dach but retain toews and Kane?
Toews and Kane will be trade soon anytime
Tank commander Seth Jones is going to lead rebuild
Because Kane and Toews only have 1 more year left on their deals, so you probably aren't gonna get enough for them to make it worth it to trade before the season. If either of them get shipped off it'll probably be at the deadline.
Living in the past...........
It's sad for the Habs too. Nobody expected to see Romanov leave, yet here we are.
Gary getting booed out of the building lol love it
Its a running thing thats happened since he took over and grew the nhl unprecedented
@@rolandkennedy80 he is still a pos
Huh? He actually encouraged them to boo or else they'd be sitting down quietly. At this point in time, the boo-ers look like complete idiots. He isn't going anywhere, let alone "out the building", unless it's on his terms.
@@SYLFan2008 nah booing is part of the fun it's not even really that hate-filled anymore. It's become a tradition
I feel bad for him. Sure he tries to show what anyone of us would show but I think it's completely unfair. What has he done to warrant all those boose? Bringing the NHL into the 21fst century much better than it was with prior commissioners?
Make no mistake. Gary Bettman will be in the NHL Hall of Fame down the road as one of the NHL's prominent builders.
Came back here from Dach's revenge against Chicago today 🤟
Montreal, Mecca of hockey. Stop sayin' it's Toronto...
I wanted the Habs to trade for the 2nd pick this year in order to get Slaf and Wright. I was willing to give a lot for this to happen.
Habs mgmt managed to get Slaf, keep some of its pick, trade a player they couldnt resign and grab a 3rd pick C from just a couple years back. I'd say I got my wish and then some!
I'm so excited about the habs again. Bergevin ruined them, and would complain about not getting better "it's too hard." Hughes has balls! I love it! They got bigger. They got a big talented center. Dach may even pass Suzuki to become the top center!
@@SmoothOperator2013 I don't see Dach becoming 1st C but I woupdnt mind being proven wrong!
@@SmoothOperator2013 Tho bergevin brang a bunch of prospects who are almost ready for the nhl for example (Guhle,Kidney,Roy,etc). Bergevin also made some good steals like Pacioretty for Suzuki. Tho i do agree that he has done a lot of bad moves as well tho he isn’t the worst gm.
The description is a little off. Montreal traded Romanov and a pick for a higher pick. They then packaged that higher pick along with a different pick to get Dach.
What a crowd in mtl more fans at draft the AZ lol
Well, you have nothing else to do, after all.
“You’re losing some energy” Bettman W
Bettman, took the NHL from the stifling journeyman's bash, clutch and grab slow paced neutral zone trap to the exciting high speed, skilled and finesse young players game. He is to be commended.
No he did not he turned hockey soft for the American market hes a moron
In other words ruined good ol’ hockey
@@curtisscott6946 L
@@curtisscott6946 L
he was there for the start of it
He has accepted his role as the villain in the wrestling world lol
In 5 years the Habs are going to be a powerhouse for years to come
I love how during the speech for guy lafleur people went from cheering their hearts out to booing the second he opened his mouth lmaoooo😂 ive never seen ppl booing while crying hahahahahhaha
great trades
Sens fan here. Not gonna lie, thought theyd traded up to 4 to get Wright
Nah cause then you have a player who's taken 3 spots lower than expected which sets a bad first impression.
@@robrick9361 The habs could have said they knew the devils wouldnt draft another center and the yotes were high on Cooley (he said before the draft his interview with the yotes felt very very good)
Dude we all did that’s why it was insane
100% . My wish was for the habs to get Slaf and Wright this year. Turns out we basically got the same type of C , the very same Slaf and it was less expensive than trading for the 2nd. Great moves all around!
Everyone in that building and outside thought that the habs were trading for pick #4
I love how real habs fans are excited about Kirby Dach in the stands
GoHughesGo
wake up you bunch of dreamers
The way Bettman played the crowd kinda made me like him for a second
If I’m Kirby Dach I’m pretty pumped about that reaction
How Bettman made everyone's moods change in just a few seconds.
After 20+ years, Bettman is learning how to read the room.
Yet he managed to read a trade wrong during the evening and traded the Sharks pick to... The Sharks! x-P
Love bettman
This year will be so much better habs fans
Show up in Nashville habs fans
I like how the constant booing never bothers this guy. At this point he embraces it
I am not a Hab fan, but I find it really odd that they have traded Romanov. Not only he was one of the fans favorites, was really good, but also now the D hasn't much depth and has much less grit. I would be really angry at the GM to have traded Romanov if I were a Hab fan.
I guess flurry means two now
How to get a first feeling about your trade: Go in Montréal, announce your trade at the mic, if the fans booed, you probably win the trade. If they jump off their seat after losing one of their favorite, maybe you just lose your trade. Chicago table don't look so enthousiastic at the end.
“That’s good” best line ever
Montreal came out swinging tonight
where in the river
Wouldn't be surprised if the WWE looks into hiring Bettman as their new commissioner.
I'd be surprised! Tho I think it'd be PERFECT!
Never gonna happen tho :p
Kinda funny to realize the guys at 1:16 are Chicago fans that excited about getting rid of Dach.
Sadly his development got rushed as a knee-jerk move to try and salvage a bad season and no ones had the brains to send him back down to the minors somehow to maybe help condition him. Hope he works out in Montreal tho
Bettman is the NHL's Vince McMahon.
☝️
No love for the islanders in these boards? Got a 22 year old defensemen who can play. He’s a good player. Could really help the islanders defense.
Romanov was a warrior for the Habs and a well liked player by the fans. Glad to see him doing well for the Isles. Best of luck Romy we miss you! I'd like to see the Isles get into the playoffs and do some damage.
i never liked Bettman, but he sure is great at being the heel figure in the NHL
i guess flurry means 2 now
that was epic
Lbh everyone in that building somehow thought the Canadians traded back up for Shane wright lol
It was fu**ing INSANE
when I saw this live and Bettman said "to the Chicago Blackhawks", I thought "NO Way! DeBrincat!?"
Would've been to good to be true
Debrincat was traded a few days before the draft
So no one is gonna talk about Romanov
Hey, he was a good sport about it. Gotta give him credit for that 😂
Can you tell not to many fans like Bettman
i actually love Gary
I guess the Hawks are all in for Bedard next year
I guess you were right
Bettman gonna have to show us more respect cause in Québec the hockey is definitely our national sport and the NHL was first founded in Montréal in 1917 the 3 first leagues were in Montréal, Toronto, Ottawa and in Montréal we take the hockey very seriously and we take the competition in this sport to another level that's why we need of a second team, cause Montréal is in competition with the City of Quebec and than with the anglophone world and that you are english or french the competition still exist since the middle age we love to compete against each other it is a question of pride and we all wanna know who will win the same happened in the UFC with GSP and the same happened with Maurice Richard the Rocket, and Bettman keep bashing over Quebec and doesn't want to let us have the chance to win he feel the need to keep us under the table so we dont respect him either.. when he gonna show us more respect we will give him back the same level of respect ..
Facts
And we just lost him to injury for a second season. But he's a good player.
Love when. Bettman fires back
WWE crowd: HOLY SHEET x20
Bettman is a good salesman.
WHY ROMANOV???
Bettman's years of study at the Sorbonne apparently wasted.
Haha Bettman knows some of the fanbases has a lot of passion based on the boos he receives. XD
Bettman love that cause he knows its good for the sport..i mean, are you not intertained? Its a love hate relationship beetween him and canadian fanbase
Awesome, now I get to see in live Makar destroy Dach again when they come to MTL in march 🤣
I love Bettman a little bit, he knows what he is
imho Bettman get's too much hate
At this point it is just tradition. The fact that he plays into it feels like we are all in on it.
It's funny how all the habs fans seem so sad losing romanov and then erupting into cheers when they kirby dach 😂😂😂😂
Anyone else convinced they were going to trade up to get Wright?
You have no idea how excited i was for like 15 secs lmao
Yes lmao I was in a restaurant in Downtown MTL and the place was buzzing so was I. We actually thought they were gonna get Wright 😭
If Kent Hughes was willing to give Romanov (seen as one of the definitive future pillars next to Suzuki and Caufield) away, that means there's no player off-limits for trades.
false. we have someone to fill romanov's spot (Guhle) so it was low-risk.
Have to many D prospect, not enough forward 🤷♀️
Romanov is not on the same level as Suzuki and Caufield
Romanov is a good player but he’s not a game changing guy
Romanov made too many mistakes and St-Louis wasn't having it anymore.
NHL needs to come out with Bettman bobble heads
To Montreal from Chicago you can have him. But again the Hawks trade a starter and don't get a warm body in return just a buncha useless draft picks. Looks the Ice Hogs will be playing in Chicago next year. We suck.
i love this hahahaha
Wow kirby dach over shane Wright basically
Kirby dach and slavkovsky for an egotistical wright
@@CanadasBoss yeah I'm not even a habs fan but I like it I hope it works out for them
Bettman is doing a great job when he gets booed lmao . He sure likes a fight and sure gives them back ...
Man Bettman is such an epic troll.
the best in the pro leagues since Pete Rozelle IMO
Hawks dropped the ball on that one imo 🥴
I don't care, I love Gary. He's a Chad.
Why habs fan happy? Dach has been terrible. No tenacity , no heart out there on the ice.
Dach for romanov is a steal for the habs tf u on
@@dmacg5520 don't know much about Romanov but dach is bad , you'll see.
Not to mention they gave away Romanov. Feels like Hughes grossly overpaid.
@@the_real_deal dach is a stud, hawks got robbed for him
LMFAO Dach is only 21, he'll find his game in Montreal
Man I feel bad for Bettman. He always gets BOOED even though he's been great for the NHL. The NHL has never been more prosperous under anyone else!
I didn't that French Canadiens are still mad at Bettman for not giving his full support over a new team in Quebec City. The moment ppl realized that he wasn't a fan of the idea, he became the worst heel for this province.
The NHL gain in prosperity what it lost in popularity. The NBA did a much better job in that regard and now they’re more watched than the NHL in the US, which wasn’t the case before.
I'm absolutely ok with Bettman getting booed into oblivion
Bettman looks like Felonious Gru from minions.
Kent hughes looks like the biggest james bond vilain
As a hawks fan I’m fine with this unlike the Debrincat trade
Finally Bettman has become a showman
Habs fleeced Chicago!
The genius that is this troll, Gary bettmam.
Brings out bossy kid and lafluer kid to extinguish the boo,s right at the start.
That was be design for sure . Did not last long it seems.
If these fans knew who kirby dach was they would be very upset right now
Lol not mad at all
We know now, and we’re pretty good with it
I hate Bettman but he was hilarious. Knows how to play the crowd
Umm not sure but okay😭😩
I’d rather have dach over a 13th overall or Romanov. I don’t see how the habs lose this trade.
@@stentorofsparta3576 Was not sure but if you say it's a win then I'll take it.
@@stentorofsparta3576 Idk, Romanov was pretty good. I think it was smart to get a good 2nd line centre and a good winger without needing to trade Anderson though.
We've got plenty of left D, so we're gonna be ok. Especially with Guhle coming up next year, he could've made the team last year, so I'm confident.
Romy for 13th was sad but decent value wise. We could've gotten Nazar. Slaf and Nazar would've been palatable
Gary Betman is jokes!
gary buttman would be amazing in the WWE lol he knows how to get booed
I’m quite new to hockey, why is the Commissioner hated so much?
Because he hates the Canadian Market and try to boost the American Market by giving them teams where nobody give a f about hockey like Arizona or Vegas instead of Canadian city that are die hard hockey fan
probably more hated in Canada for not expanding teams to Hamilton or Quebec always picking useless us markets, so Stanley cup staying in us., hockey is Canada's sport.
The lockouts
someone told me that Gary had covid
He didn’t wanna get booed in Colorado. It happened but only a small one.
Bettman with the troll
At least the fans redeemed themselves after bettman read out the 2nd trade, but man they get their panties in such a knot over everything. Even if the Habs settled for trading Romanov for 13th overall and drafted Nazar that's a win IMO but the fans booed it like this kid is Chelios or somethin
