I've been doing a deep dive of Demidov's defensive and transition game over the past few weeks trying to figure out what exactly he will be at the NHL level. I kept hearing that the Habs management see him as a future NHL centre, Elite Prospects video on him today see him as quite likely a future NHL centre, I'm sold on him as a future centre too.
To me, it's easy he's above Martone and Misa, I think quite clearly. I'd lean him above Hagens too at this point though I'm a bit lower on Hagens than a lot of people it seems.
It's a toss up between him and Schaefer imo.
So, for me... No, I'd keep Demidov. I'll take the potential elite 1C over the dman.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Habs see him as a potential center moving forward, he's certainly got the playstyle and defensive commitment for it.
No, it would take more than the 1st overall of a mid draft for me to trade Demidov with what he's been showing this year.
The KHL is a stronger league than any of those the 2025 draftees are playing in, and he's been handicapped by his coach for most of this season.
Even if some of these draftees turn out as good as Demidov down the road, I still keep him. Why risk trading what seems like a guaranteed star for a very small chance at getting an even better star? There's no reason for Montreal to do this move.
Like others have said, I would actually combine assets to try and trade up to get a higher draft pick this year. With how the Habs are playing recently and Dobes, Demidov, Reinbacher, etc. coming up, I think the time for rebuilding is near its end. One last top 5 or top 10 draft pick would be great.
