It’s D-Day.
After taking his first strides on Quebec soil yesterday, Ivan Demidov was present at the Habs’ practice in Montreal, ahead of tonight’s game against the Blackhawks.

Naturally, we were wondering which players the Russian would practice with. Alex Newhook was at the center, which is not exactly a surprise…
Ivan Demidov is with Alex Newhook and Joel Armia.

As the first trio is untouched and Christian Dvorak’s is not either, this means that Patrik Laine practiced with Jake Evans at center – and Oliver Kapanen.
I wonder how Laine finds this…
More details to come…
