For real though guys, lol. Is it that serious that you have to juice his numbers in some random poll before they've ever played a minute of NHL hockey?

what's happening with the Nikishin situation? Is he coming over this season? Does Dundon not have enough money to get him out of Russia?
 
Voted Nikishin because Demidov has an unfair advantage over most of the forwards in the KHL which inflated his stats this year.

He didn't have to play against Nikishin.
You had me malding at the first sentence 🤣
 
Habs fan voting Demidov. Votes seem pretty reasonable overall. Obviously more Habs fans than Canes fans. I'm sure some spillover into the general vote, but it's a good poll.
 
Yes, but also the KHL is not as strong as perceived so you can't take what Demidov did without a large amount of skepticism attached to it. I think he will be a decent 2nd line player maybe and maybe can be someone who can one day drive a 2nd line and 2nd PP. I am also very open to the possibility that I am wrong and that he is better than I think.
If that’s what we’re doing here, then Nikishin will be a #4D whose offensive game won’t translate to the NHL. He will also struggle to be as effective in defending against NHL forwards. Enjoy your slightly plus version of Zaitsev.

Someone didn’t read the posts above and below… like a moth to a flame
 
How would you measure who has the better career? I think Nikishin is about as lock as any prospect in the last while to be a top 4 d man probably as early as when he comes over.

Demidov will likely have more growing pains.

If Demidov is a 60-70 point winger is that a better career than a top 4 d man?

I think both will be good players. Probably more likely that Demidov is a superstar though
 
Demidov would win a vote in a poll for him versus prime Gretzky. Habs fans are very passionate plus there are a lot of them and the kid is exactly what they’ve been missing

Lmao, you literally compared Michkov to Gretzky before the season, saying Michkov’s hockey sense is on the same level. Projection as usual 😂
 
There’s considerable spillover. The numbers are completely cooked. It’s straight up bullshit
Take out the Leafs/anti Habs fans votes for Nikishin and it's essentially a 50-5 slaughter. The entire Nikishin voting list is a who's who of people who post in every Habs thread on the main board to shit on them.

I don't see a single name who spends considerable time covering drafts and prospects voting for Nikishin.
 
yes, I’m sure that’s exactly what I said. Such a demented mind you have.
Want me to quote it/link it? You also said Michkov is generational and will be a “transcendent talent” in the sport, and said he’ll be the NHL’s version of Luka Doncic, among countless other insane takes 😂

Oh my god… a slaughter??? I didn’t realize it was so devastating. Do you think there will be any survivors? Who will support the families of the fallen victims of this atrocity?

Glad the Habs players and their fans are thriving so much on an online forum. Maybe one day they will succeed in reality

Please do. I stand by the Luka comp. Both elite junior players with questionable physical traits who were passed over by cowardly GMs prone to overthinking.

His rookie year has been awesome, so not sure what you are bragging about. Kid is already electric, and that’s with Torts on a decrepit Philly team.

Playing this angle with 19,000 posts is wild 😂

You mean like making the playoffs when they were supposed to be dead last in the east? Or having the actual best dman prospect in hockey destroy Lidstrom/Chelios' rookie seasons? Or going further in the playoffs during their rebuild than the Canes, as a "contender" have during the same period?

clearly demidov, if you think otherwise you clearly have a bad idea of what hockey is made of

I thought the Hab's were suppose to be "in da mix" this season.
