Were not ignoring it. Were saying there's sufficient evidence to believe demidov is the superior player.
Points per 60 is the more telling metric and demidovs d+1 KHL season (this year) is at approximately 4.6 to michkovs D+1 3.04.
Again this is a very simple statement were making. Its this: declaring theres a debate to be had over who the better player is, is sensible sentiment. Declaring demidov fans idiots for believing he's ahead given both the empirical data and eye test is simply a coping mechanism.
I personally believe given everything I've seen so far in both careers that demidov is a little bit better. That's all.
