Ivan Demidov The Center - (2A) Game 1 of Historic Playoff Run 3-8-24 

I do have several more Demidov playoff vids that I have to edit but should have a few more out this week. Hage I haven't gotten to watch yet but I will focus on him next.

@@harryhood1919 Yessir thank you!👌👌

​@@harryhood1919thanks for putting in the effort!

We have Mario Armia also. It almost feel like having Kovalev + Jagr + Lemieux.

He has one year left on his contract so he will be here for the 25-26 season

@@barbarguns yes but i was wondering if he’s going right on the roster when he gets here. I guess his high pick status and talent would suggest yes 👍

The step is big from russia to the nhl. How michkov handles the stiff competition this next season with the flyers should tell us a bit more about what to expect from demidov in 25

​@@alainlemay5115 he could be playing in the NHL right now so yes hes making the team next year without a doubt

@@bouziB not sure about this year, but i sure can’t wait. Again, watching michkov this season will tell us a lot about how easy/hard the transition can be

It's exciting to add such a highly skilled and creative player, the thought of seeing him, Lane Hutson and Cole Caufield on the PP or 3 on 3 OT is going to be so much fun to watch.

Please keeping the talent is great but but….make sure you keep around Arber and Florian to protect them…..I’m still raging to remember what they have done to Carey Price with no retaliation or Pacioretty….etc etc. Anough. The Stanley Cup series are play in a big different mode….talent, hard working, resilience and …..a lot of dissuasion. Le CH s’en vient lentement mais très sûrement. Pas encore le temps des agents libres ni le genre Matt Duchesne etc….des Fat Cats qui se cherche pour plusieurs d’entre eux un RPA ( résidence pour personnes âgées).

Since Nick Bobrov’s dad is a scout in the organization, we can only hope he can convince the higher ups!

@@TechnoForever21 SKA is known for not giving ice-time to kids who are leaving for North-America. I don't think Bobrov's dad will have a say in coaching and management decisions.

@@IdontKnow-gm7eu yes I know, that’s why I’m hoping Bobrov’s dad can convince them to loan Demidov or something 😅

Again, he’s a scout, he’s not going to have any influence on management and coaching decisions.

The MHL puts all their games on youtube, just have to look for CKA 1946

@@harryhood1919 Oh wow didn’t know thanks!

KHL is geo blocked for me, youtube won't allow me to post the vids.

its his secondry position

I believe he has stated he sees himself as a center, so I thought it was interesting they used him at center in the playoffs.

I'm not sure but I plan on watching every playoff game so I'll let you know.

I wouldn't think so, his KHL club will be starting their training camp/preseason in the coming days/weeks.

He's confirmed to play in the tournament against Toronto that's it. It's in September! It's the prospects tourny

⁠@@finalguildisWhere did you read about that confirmation?! That would be pretty cool to see him there

I do think he can be a center but it will take a lot of improvements in physical strength and he'll need to show more effort defensively. For now the main concern is just hit the gym kid, he's got to gain a lot more strength first.
