Disagree on that one, I think Mario was better

Yeah, just like Reinbacher had a tough time in his last season in the NL, it meant nothing once he could join a better team and turn the page. Tuning out a bad coach is nothing to worry about. We've seen it with Caufield and Mumbles and look at Cole now.
I watched both alot and imo Lemieux was alot more dominant but injuries and cancer ruined what could of been a better career
I think Mario today in the nhl today would be insane no 2 guys to drag to go score goals he's definitely the goat Wayne was the smartest ever but Mario the most skilled.
I don't know if Lindros wouldn't have stopped that early, how much points he would have had.
Since when has Rotenberg drastically cut his ice time? Demidov has averaged 16 minutes the past 5 games.
Demidov looks worn down a little bit. He's a 19 year old kid in his first season vs men..... it's perfectly normal.
I actually hope Rotenberg limits his ice time the last 3 games. Give Demidov some rest before the intense playoffs begin.
Add forsberg to that list. Its almost freaky how he and Lindros were traded for eachother and ended up having VERY similar statistical careers.
Forsberg, Kariya, Lindros, the 1990s were a cemetery to potentially historic players.
But at least it led to them changing the rules.
I said BEFORE when Rotenberg drastically cut his ice time. His ice time has been cut recently as well, but my point was that there is a difference between his play now vs when his ice time was cut before, which you just acknowledged.
Again, maybe he is worn down a bit, or maybe he is fed up with Rotenberg’s antics, that was the question I was posing.
Imo, it could be either one, a bit of both, or he could just be slumping. However, it’s a bit too much of a coincidence that this little skid coincides with Rotenberg cutting his ice time, and it seems like an even further coincidence that Rotenberg decided to cut his ice time shortly after he took over the scoring lead for the team, which he still has despite the slide.
Do you even watch Demidov play?
His ice time isnt being drastically cut. It’s been cut a little bit, but he’s also receiving more power-play time.
Demidov looks a little worn down, but is still being used to his strengths on the PP.
If Rotenberg had any brains he’d sit Demidov more the next 3 games. Give the kid a rest before the playoffs.

Classic lol.
Dude, you are misunderstanding, again. I tried to clarify, but you’re just repeating your same misinterpretation for some reason.
I literally said this lol. Do you even read the posts you reply to?
What are you even arguing then?
I mean you just said he’s not even hustling and working hard. Do you even watch him play?
I’m arguing? You quoted me lol and don’t seem to have any idea what I even said. Crazy lmao.
Just trying to find some common ground, yet you’re all over the place as they say.
You literally said Demidov isn’t trying as hard anymore. That’s a nonsense statement.
Slumping or hitting a wall isn’t the same as not trying.
Only 3 regular season games and one playoff run left until Demidov never has to see Rotenbergs face again lol.
It'll be interesting to see his usage in the playoffs. I'm expecting it to playout like Ducharme with Caufield. Rotenberg will probably keep him in the bottom 6 and off the PP until his back is against the wall and then maybe he'll put him into a bigger role.

Rotenberg is on the hot-seat, so it will be interesting. He recently publicly apologized to SKA's Board of Directors for the team's bad performances.
Concussions sure modified his career when healthy he was one o the best out there but not on the same level has Mario but not far from it
Yes Lindros was unstoppable , but I never saw as much pure talent as Mario .
That's a funny response when I SPECIFICALLY bolded thr part of your post to which I said “who cares” which was your comment saying you “didn't like recent developments” concerning Demidov.
He's playing out the last stretch games over there, what is there to be concerned about???
Makes no sense. If he is a Putin buddy he should be protected. If he isn't protected he should have been fired long ago.
