Hab's fans response after drafting Demidov.
It's funny, we expected a run on the available defensemen. Instead, we got a run on the forwards .
we also got the new Ogle Thorpe in the draftI know I'm late, but I was camping for the last 3 days, unable to react to anything and with people who don't like hockey. So it needs to come out now.
I'm so f***ING stoke we manage to pick Demidov, holy shit this is awesome. I know there were other options and lot of good players, but Demidov is the guy we needed, everyone one else I would have felt we settle for them. Happy for the kid, happy for management, and happy for the fanbase, it's been a while since we draft a player as electrifying, the Bell Center crowd is going to love him.
On a different topic, crazy how much the LDs dropped compared to the pseudo-consensus established over the year, with the first being Silayev at 10th and with three RD drafted before him. I understood the premium on RD but didn't expect it to be this drastic. Feels the Shark especially were very lucky to get someone like Dickinson at 11th.
I’m on the fence here; I can’t decide if he’s small or big. No in between

He's Datsyukian to me offensively.
If Lindstrom will be a hell of a player, there’s no way you can have the other guys before him. Will they all be stars?I had not Lindstrom in my top 5.
Actually I had Demidov, Sennecke, Catton and Iginla before him.
I have a big problem with Lindstrom's IQ and vision.
He will be a hell of a player nonetheless, but I had those guys before him .
I could also see Kovalev come in and work/ mentor DemidovIt's time for the reconciliation with Andrei Markov, retire that number, bring Andrei in the org somehow.
Let's not do the Kostitsyn mistake of not surrounding this gem.
As much as we have Bobrov already, Markov would be a much better mentor for the NHL life.
I could also see Kovalev come in and work/ mentor Demidov
Sprinkle some Kovalev on top
Kovalev would want to play with him lol
Bit of Panarin as well on the play making style.
Dare I say a bit fair bit of Sergei Fedorov in his approach to offensive play.
Their ranking/quality as prospects at the draft is a bit different than their projection.If Lindstrom will be a hell of a player, there’s no way you can have the other guys before him. Will they all be stars?
Nah, Fedorov one of the greatest skaters in NHL history.
Wow the guy didn't even know who Celine was. He had to Siri the name
So much salt I loved it
Just to say, he's a Russian. He's young, Celine hasn't made shows for a long time.Wow the guy didn't even know who Celine was. He had to Siri the name

Why should he know the American pop star ? Not all the countries give a shit about USA culture * Celine lives there for decades
You highlight a phrase that specifically goes out of his way to make it clear I'm not talking about the skating, and then you say "no Fedorov's skating..." lol
Demidov thinks the game like Fedorov the most when he enters the zone. Play patterns, decision making etc. He'll get faster.
