He almost did it again in the 3rd....He drew a penalty at least.

Freaking nasty man.

This guy is the real deal!!

 

[kp61c]

he would have easily made the habs roster this year. rotenburg is sabotaging his team by not giving demidov more pp time.

Kids on easy mode now. This is against the best team in the conference, grown men, and this 18 year old kid is making swiss f***ing cheese of their defence. Best prospect out of Russia since kucherov. This kid is unbelievable. Absolute superstar in the making.

 

[Zine]

This will probably traumatize all Habs fans for atleast the next 10-20 years, atleast we got 1 of the 2

Probably the same for Hawks fans. A Bedard/Demidov combo.

[Nico Cauzuki]

kid is so special and dominant and he still doesnt get any PP time

 

[Thomas Sowell]

Is demidov now putting up the best ppg by a u-20 player?

 

[GlassesJacketShirt]

Does that goal improve his relative +/-?

That comment from YKW should be hung in the Hall of Fame.

 

[MoneyManny]

Why all the comparisons to Michkov? It's not like Demidov being a ridiculous talent absolves the Habs for passing on Michkov.

Could you imagine Demidov and Michkov on the same line? JFC.

We weep everyday to that thought.

We weep everyday to that thought.

That was a loss for every hockey fan outside of Philly. I would've loved to see them together.

While I disagree with it, I still don’t believe that HuGo would have taken Michkov and Demidov, especially after drafting another wing, even higher, in 2022 (Slaf). Habs were going right D one of those two years. Hopefully Orville will pan out.

Agree. We’d likely have Michkov and Buium, had things gone the other way. Even though I prefer Demidov over Michkov, I think I’d choose the combo of Michkov + Buium over Reinbacher + Demidov. Tough one. Reinbacher was just a terrible pick. At least that’s how it looks to me right now. Obviously, things could change, but I doubt it. Hated the Reinbacher pick from the start.

 

[Yasuo]

Demidov
Mickhov
Cooley
Suzuki
Caufield
Frank nazar

What could have been, top 6 that can damn near ride any ride at disneyland

Yeah but the problem is i dont think drafting Michkov has anything to do with Cooley and Nazar. So a forward core of Suzuki/Caufield/Slaf/Dach/Demidov/Michkov/Laine would be good and not tiny. Maybe in that scenario we dont draft Hage and a dmen instead tough.

Is demidov now putting up the best ppg by a u-20 player?

I’m not sure if it’s updated but 19 pts in 22 games is .86 per . I’m too lazy to check decimal point comparison but I believe that’s almost exactly what Michkov / Kap produced . If that’s not the updated total he’s past the above pace .

Just realized that would have tied the game. Man...it would he great if he can translate that to NHL. Habs haven't had a real game breaker in my lifetime.

 

[HabbyGuy]

He would be leading the KHL in points as an 18yo rookie and having the best season for a D+1 Russian prospect in history

Imagine getting laughed at and ridiculed for even suggesting to the Michkovites that he could be on the same tier level as Matvei.

Time will tell I suppose, but there's nothing to suggest different that Demidov isn't a bonified budding potential NHL all star. It's clear to see just how good he is.

Someone even said Demidov is 2 tiers below Mitchkov. TWO
