Ivan Demidov - Montreal Canadien

2 1/2 weeks? Supply chain bottlenecks are done. What’s the deal, did you order a custom made Lamborghini dishwasher that needs to be flown in from Italy?
 
It's because I gave America too much credit for having brains. I should have known they'd find the dumbest thing possible and choose that.
 
Looking at last year's draft

Celebrini. Looks good. 4 points in his 5 nhl games

Lindstrom. Hasn't played

Iginla. 19 points in 12 games. Good but not great.

Sennecke. 23 points in 15 games. Good.

So far so good with Demidov.
 
He's hit a bit of a skid after a nice little hot streak, but still promising of course, and his ice-time is still all over the place.

Last 5 games: 0 points
Previous 7 games: 10 points

Cayden Lindstrom being ranked and drafted that high never made sense to me.

Prior to last year, he was on nobody's radar. Late first / early second, some places didn't have him ranked.

He played 32 regular season games & 4 playoff games, and that was somehow enough for him to be ranked in the top-5 virtually everywhere despite missing a lot of games due to a back injury? Make it make sense.

I'm glad Columbus took him off our hands.

High ceiling in those 36 games imo
 
Yeah, I get that. I just don't get the near-universal ranking in the top-5 pick. Plenty of high ceiling players with problems taken in the middle of the first round every year.

There was no world in which I would have taken him before any other player in the top-10 besides maybe Silayev.
