Chase nature and it will return at a gallop.

Roman Rotenberg has chosen to place, in view of today’s game, Ivan Demidov in the 13th attacker’s chair. Because yes, in Russia, KHL teams play with 22 skaters.

The CH’s hope should therefore have little playing time if nothing changes.

Maybe at some point, the coach will want to shake things up and give Demidov more playing time. But don’t necessarily count on that scenario right now.

Really not, even.

In recent weeks, Demidov had often had good playing time. But you never know when the club’s coach might decide to change things up.

And that’s what we see.

With the season ending, don’t expect to see Kent Hughes take a plane to go see SKA to do as he did this winter, that is, to talk to SKA’s management.

It had worked, though…

I wonder, however, if the Canadiens won’t call Russia simply to understand what’s going on – for what it’s worth. After all, seeing him used as a 13th forward isn’t fun.

But we’ll agree that it should make Demidov want to arrive in North America, where he’ll be able to play for a team that wants to put him in a winning position.


in a burst

– Ouch.

– Yeah.

– A long absence is to be expected.

– It’s going well for the CH’s prospect.

– A strong stance.
