Prospect Info: Ivan Demidov (2024 5th OA): SKA St. Petersburg (KHL)

[Kennerback]

I saw the video. They come back on the 2024 draft. Discuss how it was difficult to properly gauge the strength of the MHL and to thus evaluate Demidov properly.
The fact Demidov's "absolutely torching" the KHL changes their perception. Much easier to judge now how transferable his skills are to the NHL.
It's very laudatory. Not much new to posters here but the fact they are not Habs fans brings a different perspective.

They also don’t really touch on how Demidov is putting #s compared to those under 20 players despite way less ice time, not just about games played.

Josh Leivo, a Salvat Yulaev player about Ivan Demidov (sorry my English)

Can Ivan Demidov become a Montreal superstar?

- I haven't seen many of his games, but I've formed an idea of this guy. And people tell me about him sometimes. Absolutely, he looks like a potential superstar. What pick did Montreal pick him at the draft? The fifth pick? Well, that's a steal. It's obvious that Demidov is going to grow into an elite player. Look at what he's showing now. But what happens when he goes to the NHL and settles in?
