Alex Newhook Delivers the Best Post-Game Line After a Standout Performance
The line of Alex Newhook, Ivan Demidov, and Oliver Kapanen stood out again last night in the 6-2 win, and Newhook delivered one of the best quotes we've heard this season.
Finally, a game that doesn't end in dramatic fashion for the Canadiens!
Yes, the Montreal Canadiens finally earned a regulation win, and it felt good.
The game was still close early in the second period.
Then Alex Newhook changed the entire momentum.
His goal was spectacular.
And after the game, he dropped a line that made a lot of people laugh...
Alex Newhook Montreal Canadiens line with Demidov and Kapanen
During the post-game interview on TVA Sports, Newhook talked about his line with Ivan Demidov and Oliver Kapanen.
With a smile, he said:
"I'm a young dad out there with those two guys [Demidov and Kapanen]."

You could see the chemistry and the pride.
It wasn't rehearsed.
It was natural and genuine.
And it clearly shows where Newhook is right now. I find he's leading this line well and bringing a leadership presence to the two young rookies.
In Mathis Therrien's article, it's emphasized that Newhook's current performances are not just a "Demidov effect."
Therrien also highlights how Newhook drives offense on his own, not just through his linemates.
You can see it right away.
He arrives quickly with the puck.
He creates his plays on his own.
To me, this is the Newhook we were waiting for. He knows what he's worth, and he wants to show it every night.
