I'm getting so f***ing drunk Saturday

Is that when he’s expected to play?

 

[CzarDemidov]

If/When Demidov has a big impact on the team's playoff run, you just know Rottenberg will take credit for allowing Demidov to be sent as help

Who else should get credit?

Rotenberg's excellent prospect development regime ensured Demidov had an excellent season, didn't get burnt out, and is ready to step up and help the Habs. We couldn't have asked for a better D+1 season. I'm forever grateful to Rotenberg and I think I can speak for all Habs fans: he'll never have to pay for a Moscow Mule in Montreal again, we simply love him!

I turned to 690 figured they would be talking this.

Holy crap!

 

[Paddy17]

This is a plot twist worthy of Game Of Thrones. Best news I've heard today

You guys think he's gonna debut against the Sens friday ?

That would be unlikely since he still has to wait for his Visa, then get at least one practice with the team. His contract should be signed any time now, but still not done.

Marco HAD THE SCOOP THIS MORNING!!

He interviewed him (Demidov) this morning but was under embargo. Insane scoop

How did they even get him there ? Radio de fond de rang.

My excitement is immeasurable.

Does it make me a bad person if I hope they don't release Nikishin so I can read salty Canes fans comments online?

First round. Ovechkin, fresh off his record, vs. Demidov.
... can you believe it?

Second round he lights up Vasilevski, 3rd round he lights up Bobrovsky, SCF he lights up the russian gas Nichuskin.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

NO f***ING WAY

 

[Canadiens Ghost]

With Demidov, Habs could become a dangerous dark horse in the playoffs.
Let's just make them now.

How the heck id Marco D'amico and Shaun Starr get access to SKA/Demidov, I wonder

 

[schwang26]

“Return to Saint Petersburg”? Really? After the way he was treated?
