I've said it before, Demidov is going to do so many blind pass to nowhere on the Habs, since most players are never where they are supposed to be.
It's not 'really' NO look tho lol

Guys like this are so talented they make it seem like they actually didn't 'look' but they know 'exactly' where they are passing a puck (or ball),
Guys with offense IQ like this, doesn't matter the sport, they don't do anything 'blind' lol

Doesn't change that they will be to nowhere 50% of the time once he's on the Habs like it is for everyone else.

As was said in another thread though, even if MSL isn’t teaching anything to Hutson, he’s at least smart enough not to get in his way.

I still remember Therrien randomly deciding that we needed to play dump and chase hockey and that included PK Subban. He ‘coached’ the skill right out of our team.

That’s the benefit of having a guy like MSL, at a minimum he’s going to let skilled players play their game and that bodes really well for players like Hutson and Demodov.
If Therrien was still coaching Hutson would be getting less then 10 min a game because let's face it Hutson has had some pretty brutal giveaways, and those would drive MT insane. So even if MSL isn't developing Hutson (Which I don't agree with), it's clear as day that we would be tearing down his confidence and trying to get him to change his entire game under most of our previous coaches.
