A Habs scout on Ivan Demidov:

"I just think his brain and his offensive processor is so high that he can make quick plays out of nothing. On the attack he's an extremely dangerous player…He's got a lot in his arsenal."

Kent Hughes on Lane Hutson’s contract negotiations:

“All of the contracts that we’ve negotiated since we’ve been here have gone smoothly. Sometimes they’re done quickly, sometimes they take longer. The fans shouldn’t worry, Lane won’t be an UFA for another 7 years. So he’s not going anywhere else.”

Uhh all of it? The Habs stayed in QC this year for a training camp team bonding retreat. They also would’ve played there for free last year but the Quebec government decided to pay $7 million to bring the LA Kings instead.

Habs GM Kent Hughes today on the Lane Hutson contract negotiations:

“I’ve been asked if the fanbase should be worried & the simplest thing I could say is you worry when a player is an incumbent free agent & Lane Hutson is not a free agent for a long time. We’ll figure it out one way or the other.”

Oliver Kapanen today on Ivan Demidov:

“Of course we know Demi’s strength on the offensive (side). I just try to balance that…(I’ve learned) how good he protects the puck on the corners. We don’t have to rush if he has the puck, just give him space to do his thing, just make yourself open.”

Habs coach MSL today on his team:

“This group was hungry right from the start of camp. I think they were hungry from the summer individually. They have the resources to really get after it early here and they did. Once training camp started, I really felt that we were in the ‘now business.’”
