Another assist. It’s laughable michkov was ever considered better by some. Demidov is a sure fire superstar the biggest question is can we acquire a top six centre to put with him and Laine next year and maximize both of their abilities.

Rottenberg: « I’ll just sprinkle him with PP time so he can beat Michkov’s record. Or maybe not. I’ll just see what I feel like… »
Once he hits his groove he has 100 point per season potential. Not hyperbole, this kid is ridiculous.

Yeah he's gross , I still want them to try him at C , the kid is just a dog , and his defensive stick is quite good

Holy f*** I actually managed to catch the second half this guy is fantastic. Could've had 2 or 3 more points. We could have a 100 pt player finally

Interesting to think that our best forward might not be on Suzuki's line.
You know, it’s possible to enjoy that we drafted Demidov, without referencing Michkov.
One has nothing to do with the other, it’s bad enough we refer to him every time we talk about Reinbacher, but this just screams of insecurity.
Who cares if Michkov is or isn’t better.

He's up to 3.91 PTS/ 60 Mins.
Huge numbers for a U20 player in the KHL.
Just as an example of how good that is, during Artemi Panarin's last season in the KHL (also with SKA St Petersburg), he had an amazing 4.3 PTS/ 60 Mins, but he was 23 years old.

If I got this right he needs 13 points in 8 games to beat Michkov KHL D+1 season.

Looks like we're back at generational talent level
Still can't believe Chicago and Columbus passed on him, can't wait for next season.
Laine - Hutson - Demigod on the same PP

He is now 35th in KHL scoring, while averaging 11:26 TOI. Nobody else in the top 50 is averaging less than 15:00 TOI.
What he is doing for a teenager in the KHL with so little TOI up to today, is completely unprecedented.

It would be nice, but for me that's not as important as they're two completely different players, but also they have been used in 2 completely different ways with one getting way more ice time (including a lot of PP time) early in the season playing for a much weaker team and the other one having to work his way up the lineup and earn every minute he gets.

12 in 8 but basically it’s Rottenberg playing with the spigot that always decided how close or how far he is from the record. Demidov has little control. He’ll beat it if Rottenberg wants him to beat it.

Still can't believe that Sharks passed on him
Maybe not, but seriously, he should easily go 2nd hahaha
‘With this type of performance he’s lining himself up for another 4th line demotion.’ SKA coach thoughts

The Sharks are fine with Celebrini.

Yeah, I was joking, but seriously, Demidov should easily be drafted #2. Easily.

According to eliteprospects Demdidov is projected to have 51 points in 68 games so if he does play all those games he should easily pass Michkov's 41 point D+1 season.

I don’t care, but he also is better and they’re going to be compared for the rest of their careers so we may as well get used to it

Celebrini might be having the best first season for a #1 since McDavid. It’s funny how he was under the radar compared to Bedard. It turns out we might have misjudged the relative strength of the top of the 2023 and 2024 drafts.
I watched a lot of both Celebrini and Demidov. I’m very biased but I prefer Demidov. They’re certainly not far off each other. Celebrini has a more classic style. Demidov is much more of an stylistic oddity.
