F Ivan Demidov - SKA St. Petersburg, KHL (2024, 5th, MTL)

[JIMVINNY]

Well, you're going to bring back those usuals suspects with your last sentence.
Its ridiculous to say Demidov is better than Michkov AINEC at this point.

In fairness, the Michkov cheer team has been using KHL success as a major reason for why they think Michkov is better. Demidov did something today that Michkov never achieved in the KHL, so by their own logic, Demidov has surpassed Michkov.

Edit - Michkov had a 5 point game two years ago. I stand corrected.

Cmon, Demidov has only played 6 games so far. Using this small sample size to prove he's better than Michkov, and even use the word "ainec" makes absolutely no sense.

Michkov also already scored 5 pts in a game in the khl.

I stand corrected. I missed that game against Kunlun at the end of the 22-23 season when i was going through game logs.

I absolutely love that the usual suspects aren't in this thread at all since the last game cause you know they're lurking.

I wonder what advanced stats Demidov is not killing it on, they should just post those.

Demidov > Michkov AINEC

Wait until Demidov has a bad game they’ll come crawling out of their hole faster than you can imagine.

All I see is one player couldn’t crack SKA line-up for some reasons while the other one is working his way up the depth chart. Whether it’s on-ice or off-ice, there must be a reason why this is happening that way

 

[santapore]

ska and sochi are kind of differend kind of teams too but seriously im happy about demidov doing so good right at the bat. i said previously in this thread that my prediction was 25 points in this khl season. not gonna change that just yet.

Lol, suddenly crickets from a certain few loudmouth you-know-whos. Literally not a single post from any of them today; what a funny coincidence. They were posting in here like they were getting paid to before lmao. Pathetic .

 

[Maitz]

If he plays around 15 min a game and 1-2 min on PP, I am confident he will get 30-35 pts which would be a really nice season for a 18-19 years old

 

[danisonfire]

All this on the third line.

Gonna need a few more 4 pts games for me to get excited.

my heart rate only sees a bump for 5+ point games

Flyers fan here, came here to say Demidov looking great out there, exactly what MTL needed!

I don’t really know why this PHI/MTL thing is a rivalry. Michkov could be a complete bust for us and Demidov could be the next great Russian, wouldn’t matter cause we never had the chance at Demidov.

Happy both prospects are doing good!

Its funny because the whole Michkov vs habs thing is rooted mostly in anti habs fans. Never really hear the trolling from Flyers fans.

Hope all three prospects including reinbacher work out for their teams.

Please, stop with your rational and reasonable way of thinking. This is not the place that that.

It's not really the 4 points, it's how he's playing. He's been very good so far.

 

[montreal]

Assist 1:16
Assist 1:54
Goal 2:50
Goal 3:31

he could of easily had 5 or 6 pts this game, and last game he had 2 goals (that 2nd one should of counted) and rang another off the post.

 

[waffledave]

Will you finally be impressed if he wins the KHL scoring title?

I'm still not over 2010

 

[Eegs]

Montreal fans are going to adore this guy. Been a long time since we've had a player that is so dynamic.

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

Great game . What a talented kid .

Stop that! Get that level-headed viewpoint out of here and back on Reddit!

KHL point leaders so far:

 

[HabzSauce]

Let's give it 20 games at least, but still nice to see

By then he will have 20 points at least

 

[Kennedys]

Wait until he's a PPG for 20 years in the KHL before saying he's any good and NHL ready.
