Prospect Info: [2024 - 5th] Ivan Motherbleeping Demidov (RW), SKA St. Petersburg (MHL)

[Doc5]

Watching his highlights, you’d think he’s playing in juniors. He’s doing all this in a men’s professional league. It feels weird that we have a player like this in the system.

 

[L4br3cqu3]

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

That I agree with.

That's things happen when you decide to play Demidov in your first line !!

Like crushing CSKA instead of threading water against them. Might just be a coincidence.

 

[Demigod Gloves]

I think we need to acquire a good russian veteran player to help him next season, he has all the talent in the world but we've seen many times how difficult it can be for young player to adapt to a new environment, which can slow his progression.

truer words were never spoken,

Demidov has played 12 games this season with over 14 mins TOI, he has 18 pts.

If you go down to 10 mins of TOI, he's played 23 games, he has 26 pts.

If you go down to under 9:14 of TOI, he's played 11 games and he has 1 pt.

 

[ZUKI]

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.

3.91 PTS/ 60 Mins is amazing. This is THE stat that tells us how good he plays.
For those who are comparing his production to the one of Michkov, this is the most accurate way to do it. Michkov was playing big minutes, no?

I am sure that Demidov is already high on that list of that russian league

Comparing ES pts/60 would be even kinder to Demi

Mitchkov pts/60 last season was 3.25.

Demidov is decapitating that stat. No rookie has ever done what demidov is doing this year. Ever.

Impressive !

I was sure he was higher than Michkov. Do you have access to the league standing list for that statistic?

one of the big differences is Michkov was getting over 2 mins of PP TOI per game I believe, Demidov before today's game was at :29 seconds per game of PP TOI. Since he got over 6 mins of PP TOI today, it bumped him up to :41 seconds per.

With them losing their top scorer for 2 months, they likely will have no choice but to give him PP TOI now (for 2 months he barely sniffed the PP) so we'll see how that goes as he has shown that if you give him the TOI he will produce to the point he could be leading the KHL in points despite just turning 19 a couple weeks ago.

Well with the way he’s been treated by coaching staff there I’m sure this will be heaven on earth with how welcoming this locker room is. He’ll gel really quickly with the young guys

 

[LesHabitants]

SKA now 4-0 up. Second period almost over. Demidov no involvement in the other two goals.

Ivan Demibust.

 

[HomaridII]

Impressive !

Demidov leads the KHL in pts/60, even strength pts/60, plus minus/60 etc all of it he leads the khl.

In most of the pts/60 categories he is over a point per 60 above 2nd place.

As Montreal said, if he had been given 12-14 mins per game consistently he easily would be leading the KHL in points and already surpassed mitchkov season from last year.

 

[HabsCode]

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.

Michkov had 41 Demidov is at 29, to beat him its 13 bruv.

 

[Redux91]

The slow way Celine Dion announced the pick and builds up anticipation right before she announces "Ivan Demidov" is chef's kiss.

I remember real time too thinking 'people are probably gonna hate that pause' lol
But me too I thought it was pure CLASS my god, she knew what she was doing

 

[Rapala]

I like how much the Demidov talk has slowly shifted the Michkov talk away from Reinbacher.
At least for now...

 

[ZUKI]

Michkov had 41 Demidov is at 29, to beat him its 13 bruv.

Once again, Michkov was playing a lot more minutes and lot more PP time. It's sad, but we can't compare them using the total points of both players. Of course, Michkov will probably be the leader for the total points, but Demidov puts him in his little pocket for the points per minutes played

Do not underestimate habs fan. We will hear about the Michkov/Reinbacher draft for the next 15 years.

Kinda unfair to Reinbacher anyways considering he's hurt.

 

[HomaridII]

 

[Redux91]

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.

The funniest part about all the Demifov Michkov stuff to me is they are actually good friends

Where can one find those stats? ES & PP per 60

Michkov played 123:40 on the PP and Demidov has only got 18 minutes, before today. Demidov is currently crushing his points/60 mark, mostly at even strength.

This kid is going to be special.

 

[Redux91]

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

Oh you only Stat watchers lol.. I love you guys

If you know, you know
Demidov has already surpassed Michkovs KHL numbers.

We don't care what he did in his vacation on loan to dead last Sochi going -6
What was he able to do on the contender KHL team Demidov is currently paying his dues on with an astounding +20
