Since the visit of the leaders of the Montreal Canadiens to Russia, Ivan Demidov seems to have reached a new level in his career. Indeed, since this meeting with Kent Hughes, Nick Brobov et Vincent Lecavalier at the SKA in Saint Petersburg, Demidov has a string of impressive performances.
He has just added 2 points to his record, which gives him 4 consecutive games with at least 2 points.
He has also been playing on the first line for a few games. This new position allows him to evolve alongside the best players and fully exploit his potential.
The young striker shows great confidence and his progress is impressive. We’re already salivating at the idea of seeing him play in the Canadian’s top-6.
Today, SKA faced Vityaz, one of the worst teams on the circuit and Demidov took the opportunity to score a 13th goal and a good one at that!
This 13th goal this season is perhaps not as spectacular as that of a few days ago, but we can admire his vision of the elite game.
With these recent performances, he now ranks 23rd in KHL scoring, an absolutely incredible feat considering he has an average playing time of 11:31 minutes. Almost half of the other attackers have collected more points than him.
