Every time I hear Kent Hughes speak I am impressed. No salesman talk, no cliches, no excuses, just plain talk by a remarkably intelligent hockey executive.
I mean he do some sales talk in press conferences to push some players on the trade block from time to time but in such a subtle and classy way. He is not a peddler for sure, and he is indeed very very smart.
@@TonkyTube Hughes' main problems are of 2 kinds: he has to put up with the Bergevin's legacy in terms of terrible contracts and, ironically, the outnumbered young good players in development.
@@andrevaudrin3164 The second problem you mentioned is actually a great one to have in a rebuild.
Kent is building a winning team and he's so smart.
I wouldn't say drafting a top 20th ranked def as there 6th pick in the best offensive draft of the decade instead of a forward was smart but hey everything else so far is good gignac (doesnt really matter) but shouldn't of been wavered for white i knew before hand and i think hughes was being a bit bias on that 1 but wtv
We are in good hands ! patience and time needed .
Kent is the guy ! He's the modern day savard ! Anybody who doesn't see this knows nothing about hockey or how to rebuild a franchise! At the end of the day you need a strong core and futures ! Having a teaching philosophy permits a team to build a real future and maintain it ! Props to Kent he really really gets it !
Thankyou Frank for this interview!!!
Nice job Seravelli - good questions man.
Kent thank you and Mr Molson
Mr Gorton and the whole organization for a job so Habsolutely amazingly well done GO HABS GO 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Great job Frank
🔵⚪🔴
Great job Kent
#GoHabsGo
Rebuild done right... so far! Mindset and philosophy are spot on! The Habs are becoming fun to watch again.
So happy Kent is the Habs’ GM and that he took the job even though to get from the Centre Bell to the Complexe sportif in Brossard he has to cross a bridge 😂
Fantastic interview. Habs fans actually seem super patient because they trust the plan, and listening to Kent speak, it's clear they're in good hands. Could be a waggon in a few years.
We are coming quicker then expected tho 👀👊🏽😂
One of the best in the league
Awesome, great interview!
Kent hughes with martin st-louis and suzuki = STANLEY CUP TABARNACK🔥🔥🔥🔥
Kent is the man !
Caught this one this morning missed it yesterday.@Wally you have to do a better job of working around my schedule. Lol Good show boys.
Awesome. I enjoy listening to the Habs management team.
If health is on our side next year we could definitely contend for a wild card spot
music to my years 🎻
Fantastic interview.. finally someone saying real things
great interview!
Great interview! Thanks
Marty is the head coach for the young core, good choice Kent.
Great show!!
go habs go!
Incredible Interview! Montreal should be Fine with Kent making the decisions.
i love this guy...i juss wish we could of fired the entire bergevin team but actuqally kept bergy as consultant or somthing...ill alwasye love that man despites his flaws
Draft fowards. and a free agent too.
Where are the guys who want Shane Wright?
If Wright went 1st he would be a Bust. Now seing Slaf doing well it looks like he started to work on him and is becomminh what he was expected to be. So the draft went the way it should have.
I want Demidov.. trade up for him if you can. 6th,wpg pick and a Dman should do it. Chicago says yes
Go habs ❤
Well Kent my man, you and Jeff have done an excellent thus far, but let me be very clear, another season like the last two and we the fans will no longer accept, so this summer will be a key. Maybe you can use your draft picks and a D man to get a TOP 6 FORWARD !
Speak for yourself man, good things take time and they have been fun to watch for the very least
@@charlestherrien3290 i do and so do you, I am in the majority "man"
It's a 32 team league. You don't change course that quickly.
I wouldn't say drafting a top 20th ranked def as there 6th pick in the best offensive draft of the decade instead of a forward was smart but hey everything else so far is good gignac (doesnt really matter) but shouldn't of been wavered for white i knew before hand and i think hughes was being a bit bias on that 1 but wtv
To accomplish a goal ,one needs a vision, like the Vegas Golden Knights Owner who said at the start of the franchise we will win the Stanley Cup within 7 years and they did. Kent Hugues always says I don't put a time line, he seems to lack confidence and trying to buy time @ several millions/yr for him Gorton & St-Louis. The truth is he hasn't made the playoffs yet and Bergevin brought the Habs to a final
He just fucking got here.. price got the Habs to the final.. bergavin wasted Carey’s entire career p not a single 75+ point player .. your opinion on hockey is comical 😂go watch golf
You have to compare with the champs Vegas won the cup on less than 7 yrs....Get real dude the Habs have only 1 good forward line and the other 3 lines are AHL level that's why they are 26....
I don't think most people are buying anything, they just don't care anymore and he does not give any reason to since he has no plan, just some weird hope that anything can happen at the beginning of a season. Starting the season and playing all the games is now seen as something to aspire to.
Bad interviewer, great guest saving this interview
EDM trade us leon draisaitl
THERE IS A 50% CHANCE THAT CAUFILED WILL SCORE 40 GOALS. ....only 50%........ THERE IS A 100% CHANCE THAT Brady Tkachuk WILL SCORE 30+. BUT Brady will be a huge power-forward inflicting pain & fear... Hockey is a game of skill, brains AND intimidation .... You should try to get all three from each FORWARD you have in your system or groom them that way ..... SCREW CONCEPTS that target skill only ...... ...... If the team is having a hard time scoring , use your second option and HIT EVERYTHING IN SITE AND REPOSSES THE PUCK when your team loses it..
Brady and his boys are in the same exact place that we are...
@@-ragin- Bobby Orr won the Cup 2 times.... Bobby Hull 1 time .... Gilbert Perrault 0 times... If a player like Grady sees no chance of making the playoffs ... sees his bosses are incompetent's .. sees his team as disorganized ..... why should he kill himself ..... even if he makes 8 million ..... play hard and pray to be traded.
@@FooFahFoeFum Lmaoooo what?? I hope Brady lives a happy life.
This GM needs to grow some balls, what next step is taken when we are finishing 5th last every year so far under him, enough with the safe moves with his old clients all the time. Grow some fkn balls
Cry a little more. Kent has been part of Montreal As the general manager for 2.5 years only entering his second offseason and he has managed the available assets well + this management's first draft is looking good this far
@@andrewmoulton7429 it's 3 years u bum
I've only seen individual growth. Team growth is lacking.
Is it possible that MTL Montreal management does not understand or is willing to accept, that a TOP 4 FORWARD at 6-2/210 pounds with 25 goals and (10.0 hits per 60 minutes) ......... is more valuable than a 5-9/175 pound 30 goal scorer with (2.0 hit per 60 minutes) played.
What’s slaf? Huh?
