It'll be interesting to see what he shows in the playoffs if his coach lets him off the bench.

Aside from that, I'm just looking forward to his year finishing so he can sign his contract with us.
 
I hope they bench him the rest of the season and playoffs to be honest.

No risk of injury and he can just sign and come to Montreal when the charade is done.

I'd like to see him go beast mode in the playoffs.

Beside that, I agree with the sentiment. He has achieved all lot this season and took a big step going from the junior hockey to pro hockey. It bodes well for his transition to the NHL.​

What's a realistic point total for Demidov next year.....60pts? That's with him playing top 6 minutes with some PP time.

Realistically, Demidov could score 70+ pts next season.

Celebrini is on pace for 72 pts this season while being a year younger and playing on a far less talented team

If he’s on the “second” line next season, they will have to find him a legit 2C to play with to to be able to reach 70 pts. It ain’t happening with Dach or Beck.

Dach is highly skilled. He's not going to stop Demidov from scoring 70 pts.

Yes Dach has had struggles this season, which is not surprising considering he missed an entire year. Laine missed a whole year too, and he has struggled to perform at his best at 5 on 5. Both of them are expected to be much better next season.

Expected by you? Even if Dach is “better” next season, he’s still not a good center.

Who is Demidov gonna play with next year? Slaf-Suzuki-Caufield is probably still gonna be a lock. Dach-Demidov-Laine? is Newhook on the way out?

I'm sure they'll be in on Bennett.. but it's hard to know who is gonna come available due to a cap crunch or a playoff team trying to shake things up.

You expect Dach to perform next season the same way he did this season after losing a whole year to injury?

He looked good at center before his injury. We'll see how he looks next season.
