Where are you getting the idea that a "large contingent" of Canadiens fans made that claim?
I saw maybe two or three beating that drum, and they clearly didn't have a clue about the KHL or the situation at all.

As a Habs fan, I can confirm that on HF Habs they were more than 2-3, it was a common narrative to justify the fact that we passed on Michkov.

The kid needs to be benched for crap like that. Rotten berg needs to nip this in the bud, it can't be tolerated.

He's nowhere near as good as Michkov, but he ain't half bad, I suppose.

He's pretty close to Michkov, closer than Fantilli and Carlsson...

Habs made a huge mistake drafting this no good rebel player.
He should be benched for the rest of the season for scoring and making his brilliant coach look like a door knob.
Imagine if he carries this insubordination to the NHL. He will do horrible things like put on a penalty kill and instead, goes on the offense and scores.
Terrible draft choice...

Also bigger and more compete to his game. Not sure about higher IQ being more than Michkov

Who knew that a player needs to find his own zone without a flashlight.
Real heroes are 30 goal scorers with a -30.

Miichkov's shot is better, but I think Ivan is smarter, plus I love the way he attacks the offensive zone with speed. But he needs a good bit of work on the physical side of things unlike Michkov who already has that compact frame, Demidov needs a lot of work on lower body strength and 1st step quickness. He needs to be a good bit stronger and more explosive.

Judging from his pictures with shorts on and his current weight of about 200 pounds, he doesn't have the massive thighs that one associates with great skaters. Which of course leaves enormous room to improve that.
He has the great skill and vision, add elite skating and he owns greater then perpetual point per game seasons.

the KHL site has him listed at 187 lbs or 85 kg.
The stat the really sticks out from this season is the 0:38 PP TOI he has averaged this year. From 5 on 3 PP's it's 0:00
