Athletistic/Hockey. Russia remains one of the greatest hockey powers. Many hockey players from our country attract the attention of the NHL. Every year, many young talents go abroad to try their hand there.
Today, June 29, it became known which of the Russians may visit Canada and the United States in the coming years. One of them was striker Ivan Demidov. He was selected fifth overall in the NHL Entry Draft by the Montreal Canadiens.
Last season, the hockey player played in the MHL for SKA-1946. His team won the Kharlamov Cup by beating Loko in the final series.
Canadian supporters reacted to the choice of Ivan Demidov. They left their comments on the English forum Reddit (translation completed) Inoprosport.ru).
Lunag1234:
“They can’t believe he fell to fifth place! Teams that drafted before us will regret not drafting Demidov. How lucky we are! This guy is going to be a real beast.
ImpressiveRelief37:
“They said he was pretty small.” Watching him on stage, you wouldn’t say that.
CarlSK777:
– It’s still hard to believe we got Demidov! Given the noise surrounding his name in recent weeks, I figured he would definitely be taken away early. But now we have it, and our prospects look very good!
Neo_514:
– Oh yeah! I’m extremely happy with this choice!
@exanderpro:
– I think that next season I will follow SKA very closely.
Minato_is_God :
– I am very happy. Yes, there is always a risk in recruiting Russians, but this guy can become a real monster in our attack.
Metal mushroom:
– It’s not for nothing that we lost this season! Taking Demidov is very cool!
DangerDavez:
“Everything turned out perfect for us.”
@jokanee:
– Demidov will be cooler than Michkov.
@dominikbalotelli:
– Great! We’ve landed a potential offensive superstar!
Korean phones:
– It’s something unreal! I just have an incredible feeling about this choice. Our plan worked perfectly and we found the guy we wanted. I’m damn happy.
Habsfan_2000:
– I don’t even want to know what kind of magic our leadership used to snatch Demidov.
Worried_Onion4208:
– Demidov will become our best striker since Alex Kovalev!
Nathann2234:
– I cry, but they are tears of joy!
