Is there any way the Habs can rescue this kid?? Buyout the contract, and bring him over??
He has proven he can play with those guys, and yet the coach says no TOI for him..........terrible.

Will this effect his development??

There is no risk to his development here........we knew this season would be a s***show in this Mickey Mouse league but he is practising with talented players and will be ready to go next season. He is much better off going through this then he would be if he was simply dominating scrubs in the MHL and not learning the difference between pro tactics and junior tactics.

I have said this before but most fans treat the accrual of points as the accrual of xp points in a video game and make a linear correlation between points and development......this is a false equivalency and while these numbers can often coincide and be construed as development, they are not necessarily evidence of development.

Demidov will be just fine. Michkov had ups and downs last year there. Demi will arrive and be an instant star like Matvei.
