Ivan Demidov 1st career goal

[Tralfamadore]

Wow this kid looks like the real deal. Why haven't Habs fans been talking about him more?

 

[BB79]

Do the Chicago Blackhawks count as an NHL team?

They've let 2 goals on 6 shots in. At this rate they might give up 8 goals if Montreal could get more shots

Bedard watching Demidov on the Habs

Ryan Poehling scored a hat trick in his first game he still needs 2 more

 

[nbwingsfan]

He’s no Fabian Brunnstrom….

But no he’s a hell of a player. When was the last time the Habs had a 90+ pt player? He’s got the potential to do that regularly

Great 1st period for the kid. Good wheels, vision. Looks damned good.

 

[FinlandPanther]

Similar to Kaprizov in the agility over speed style, though you can tell Kaprizov is a lot stronger as he should be.

Agreed. Can definitely see the similarities. I think Kaptizov has slightly better agility though. Kaprizov is one of the shiftiest players ever ever seen. Kaprizov is naturally stronger because he’s older.

This guy is a clown, he's trolling, he did the same with Hutson.

Not saying anything, just posting this, everyone else can take from it what they want.

Man I knew Chicago’s roster was trash without really watching them this season… but that’s a whole other level of garbage

 

[BB79]

Now that the dust has settled, is Ivan Demidov the greatest player of all time?

Only 896 goals to go to catch Ovechkin! The watch is on

Suzuki bout to be just that.

You’re delusional.

Hey I know some of those names!

 

[Ray Mercer]

Bedard is a bum compared to this kid

No worries, he got the calder next year

 

[amnesiac]

that vision and skill on the last PP

I mean… I’ve often been as large a Hab hater as anyone but… kid is looking genuinely good. Way too many of us at HF tend to fall into two groups - the fanboy of the player/team being discussed who is excited and unreasonably biased or the hater who is just going to shit post and be unreasonably biased. Of course there are the level headed fans and detractors, but the middle ground feels smaller (probably because it’s just quieter). In this case, I really don’t see how you can say a negative word - the kid looks to be a legitimate top offensive talent by virtually every imaginable metric and this is a great way to start his career.

 

[WatchfulElm]

He's already a proven ppg player in the NHL over a whole season BEFORE his rookie season. Beat that!

 

[StickShift]

Great moment for him, and also—that was very clearly game #81-is-this-season-over-with-yet level defending from the Chicago Blackhawks.

 

[The Pwnerer]

I think he's got a real good shot at beating Ov's goal record. What a debut!

Now post Montreal's pre-Demidov.

It really doesn't look much better lol

 

[Bizz]

Nice first game by the future San Jose Shark.

The video is evidence enough itself, friggin Chicago parting like the Red Sea and the goalie is already arranging tee times in his head.

Dude will likely be sick, just sayin that’s beer league level defense.

 

[Turin]

Dang should have had another assist
