I’m open minded. Basically he’s saying that a reasonable expectation for Demidov is someone like Josh Bailey, Martin Necas or Tyler Johnson? Maybe a poor man’s Robert Thomas? It’s on the lower side of appraisals. I just want to know what he bases himself on.

Whoever is betting against this kid is a sucker at gambling. Demidov might be the most valuable drafted prospect outside the NHL. I think we will see him in a Canadiens Jersey the last 5 games of the season

I think KHL will only be in the 1st round of their playoffs when the Habs approach their last 5 games. It's very unlikely he plays NHL at all this season

But young Demidov will be in Montreal for 2025-26 as he will buy his way out or does he walk cause his contract is up

That must be the most attended indoor hockey game in the world this year

That looks like Lecavalier?

Not even remotely close; he'll put up seventy on a good year, or eighty if trends in scoring continue their upwards trajectory, but that won't be nearly as impressive as it would have been just five years ago. A perfectly-fine first line player, and probably the best on the Habs, but nothing close to being a star.

It's baffling the degree to which Demidov is overrated.

One of the worst takes I’ve read on this website so far, good job

Gonna be awesome . What a joke that he’s being sat/ underutilized. 50 plus point rookie season coming once he’s unleashed

I respect the meme-game, at least.

But, yes. Most ridiculously overrated prospect outside of the NHL because he's a Montreal draft pick, resulting in a bright spotlight and media attention, and there is a subconscious desperation to soothe the ache of passing over the superior Michkov.

Edit: Which, as I've stated, doesn't mean he's going to be a bust or anything. He'll prove a perfectly fine, one dimensional offensive winger who, in the modern NHL, will be a low-end first line player. That's fine value to acquire at fifth overall.
