the man compared him to kinda like crosby wooosh, habs making some splashes indeed, picking up 2 guys who know each other and played with each other since kids, already bringing a duo of chemistry to our franchise. i truely hope Canadian teams can make thier way back to winning cups, its been nearly 30yrs now, that was plenty of time to expand the game and create competition to the point we selected 2 slovakian players and 1 was selected 1st overall. Time for HABS to create a dynasty like the pioneer days
why not? lotta Russian fans for Kuch n Ovi for TBL & Caps. Habs are already the most respected franchise globally, now we have a new age of Slovakian fans. all the NHL teams that won cups since Buttman composed of Canadian players and a mix of international players who played at elite level, nows our turn and our time, why not??
we had already Tomas Tatar in Montreal, it was surprise to read some negative news from fans, I hope he can satisfy that fans which were unhappy with the draft.
Standing next go St. Louis he isn't that small.. And how good was Martin St. Louis height doesn't mean everything and I had the opportunity to watch him play in Poprad I am proud fan of Poprad I believe he won't dissapoints you guys 🙂
He's may be the unpolished rock that turn in diamond that few seem to miss. Fans may be surprise of what he's capable. Slaf+him teamwork will probably turn on the Centre Bell
Montreal just robbed the draft. Mesar is the real deal he's NHL ready. He's small sure but he's very very strong and skilled. If he was just 2 inchs higher he would of been no1. His Hockey IQ is head and shoulders above everyone else in the camp.
Looks like an exciting time for the Canadiens. I'm jealous lol, my Bruins have a Management team that doesn't know their nose from their ass. Go Habs go !!!!!
Is management that bad in Boston? They seem to be contending since a while now and I find that they have quite an impressive team put together. I'd hate to have to watch Montreal play them every night!!!!
Nah, watch him play Filip is the real deal. I bet you they picked Slaf because they wanted Mesar. Mesar has the potential to become the next Koivu (prime).
So… the Flames got Tyler Toffoli and Montreal got Juraj Slafkovsky’s best friend… is it just me or is that Toffoli trade not looking as good for the Flames as it did on Valentines Day?
Emil is likely a better lehky, far better hands but almost the same defensive player prospect as lehky was. So add that, and unless you think the Habs are contending with Avalanche in the next 3 years toffy was a liability where Mesar will ripen right as they trend towards contention. Bad take, also Mesar has a lot of ceiling potential, perhaps higher then even Juraj. Him and Hutson were the 2 best picks of the draft.
why not?? have u noticed past 30 yrs of international hockey has received exceptional help from canadian development and has created extrememly competetive hockey whereas back in days it was just total canadian domination? the game has evovled and Canada is no longer dominant, were still the best but the competition has evolved, and that is what the NHL wanted to do. 30 yrs ago, hockey in the dessert was an impossible business venture, but today its just a pathetic joke but yet lucrative business venture, and that wouldnt have happened without canadian development expanding to help 'expand the game' so my ? is, why not?? Wright got passed on by 3 teams, they cant all be 'stupid' right? its just 1st round and drafts, half these guys from 2022 draft wont be playing NHL hockey in like 5-10 yrs
This will likely be a common thing for the Montreal Canadians picking in the top 3 daft pics for years to come . I don't expect the Montreal Canadians to be a Stanley Cup contender for a least 7 or 8 years. During this time, no unrestricted free agents will want to sign with Montreal. Montreal Canadians will likely see more coaches get hired and be fired during this dreadful rebuilding phase. I don't believe that General manager or the current coaching staff that they have now, even know how to build a Stanley Cup contender. As a result, Montreal Canadians fans are going to suffer watching this basement dweller hockey team.
@@guyalepage8867 you must be high as kite if you believe that the Montreal Canadians will be set after the 2023 NHL draft. I would suggest that you become a fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs or the Edmonton Oilers. Get behind a team that has a real chance of winning the Stanley Cup .
ya, people said same thing bout Rangers few yrs back and they almost took out TBL without a major powerhouse team. We got lotta prospects in our pipeline, the game has evolved a lot and canadian teams have been nothing more than farming teams for past 30yrs so if Canadian teams are gunna step up and regain a competetive edge it has to be sooner or later, habs are in a good place to be rebuilding a competetive team for the next 10-20yrs. majority major NHL teams get a 20year draugth (longer for canadain and historical teams), followed by a heavy 10-20year competetive push. thats the trend amongt many NHL teams, usually after the 20yr push (and perhaps a cup or few), a major draught starts. of course we have limited data to compae the trends to but this has been common theme in NHL thus far

So I guess Slovakians are now Habs fans

Yes. We are 🤘😎😎❤️

Hell yeah we are
We are
Mesar is our new Koivu... this is very exciting and to know that we also have a great superstar project in Slaf wow. Great job
GO FILIP MESAR !GREAT ACHIEVMENT!
Standing next go St. Louis he isn't that small.. And how good was Martin St. Louis height doesn't mean everything and I had the opportunity to watch him play in Poprad I am proud fan of Poprad I believe he won't dissapoints you guys 🙂
Montreal
now has a very solid front office. And they know how to build a team, get excited Habs fans
Here's hoping this guy turns into a gem! :)
Player of the Canadiens
Bitter sweet flames not only lose a draft pick to Montreal but got spanked by us
That dude has moves that looks like st Louis Martin moves .
He's may be the unpolished rock that turn in diamond that few seem to miss. Fans may be surprise of what he's capable. Slaf+him teamwork will probably turn on the Centre Bell

This aged like milk
Lol
I read his name as flip
he will be flipping pucks into nets and habs will be flipping the nay-sayers into groupy band wagon fans
What is the name of the Habs administrator who announced this pick?
Martin Lapointe. Played most of his career with Detroit, Boston and Chicago.
You should know this you dummy
@@GamerSyx Thank you. A whole day later now, I just looked up the Habs front office and made the photo connection.. Appreciate your answer.
Montreal takes Filip Mesar because Slafkovsky in my oppinon. To make him feel better, feel comfortable in new team.
Nah, watch him play Filip is the real deal. I bet you they picked Slaf because they wanted Mesar. Mesar has the potential to become the next Koivu (prime).
after two pre season games hes comparable is : Daniel briere
Plekanec??? Wtf.... He plays like Debrincat.
Yay
Slafkovský new Plekanec?
No they said Mesar can be like Plekanec was
Bruh he plays nothing like Plekanec lmfao
HELL YEAH BABY Seattle Kraken get the #1 player in the world of youth hockey C Shane Wright SWEEEEEET
#1 Cocky crybaby good for you glad you took him 😂
Betman FAF
So… the Flames got Tyler Toffoli and Montreal got Juraj Slafkovsky’s best friend… is it just me or is that Toffoli trade not looking as good for the Flames as it did on Valentines Day?
We also got Emil Heineman from that trade, who's gonna be a good 3rd line player most likely. So far from being a bad trade honestly.
Emil is likely a better lehky, far better hands but almost the same defensive player prospect as lehky was. So add that, and unless you think the Habs are contending with Avalanche in the next 3 years toffy was a liability where Mesar will ripen right as they trend towards contention. Bad take, also Mesar has a lot of ceiling potential, perhaps higher then even Juraj. Him and Hutson were the 2 best picks of the draft.
I mean Mesar was ranked as a likely 1st round pick anyways. It's not like the Habs just picked him for the Slovak factor
good player but not a 1st round prospect. Jagger Firkus >
bruh why is montreal taking all slovaks
The real question is: why not?
why not?? have u noticed past 30 yrs of international hockey has received exceptional help from canadian development and has created extrememly competetive hockey whereas back in days it was just total canadian domination? the game has evovled and Canada is no longer dominant, were still the best but the competition has evolved, and that is what the NHL wanted to do. 30 yrs ago, hockey in the dessert was an impossible business venture, but today its just a pathetic joke but yet lucrative business venture, and that wouldnt have happened without canadian development expanding to help 'expand the game' so my ? is, why not??

Because they're picking the best options available, regardlesss of nationality.
Good work ethic
Montreal just because the hockey preference of an entire nation.
Trading Romanov was a backwards move that will haunt us.
For freaking kirby dach dude, i love romanov but that was a good deal. Guhle is coming up
@@user-xg6sx5ev9u remember Sergachev and McDonough?
@@Hankman23 are you actually comparing Romanov to Sergachev and McDonough? I really hope you're not.
@@user-xg6sx5ev9u Right, Dach was 3rd overall just a couple years ago. So skilled and still young.
@@Hankman23 Romanov is absurdly overrated, he is a turnover machine and a huge defensive lability.

Congratulations on finally achieving something. SMH.
Good job Hockey mouse! You deserve it. Don’t listen to AR, he’s a loser with no life
