I can't believe he slipt to 5 , we got the steal of the draft ❤

FINALLY!!!!! We've got a an elite TALENT on the team🙏.

Thank God they actually went with this pick, I worried that Kent Hughes would go off the board again but thankfully he took Demidov.

[@martinlefebvre3102]

Demidov baby!!!

[@AM-ko4pi]

My buddy and I watched the draft together. This was our exact reaction, right down to it taking forever, despite us being so impressed with Celine’s presentation. We jumped and yelled just as “Ivan” left her lips.

I thought they were eyeing eiserman at 21

Way better then Michkov

Imagine a parallel dimension where the Ducks drafted Tij Iginla. I wonder what Lego's reaction would of been if the Habs drafted Beckett Sennecke and passed on Demidov? Hashtag that Habs lady from the Kotkaniemi draft over again?

darn vegas.... if it wasnt for them we would've have Demidov AND Connelly.

[@marcbabineau6001]

omg.....how did Chicago skip on this guy. Best of both worlds, we got last years best Dman and this year a better overall player than Michkov

[@leboeufmuetdesicile5217]

It's still early to say if he'll be the best Dman from last year. Reinbacher's been good in the AHL, but it's still early to tell.

[@richierich398]

And now you get Eiserman too. Happy for you, sad as a wings fan.

[@sickopathogen]

Nope lol But Hage seems like a good choice.

Welp imagine getting the piece you were looking for through the draft and which is also projected to be top tier pick. Can't get any better, only weak spot for montreal is the goalie position now IMO.

They drafted Jacob Fowler last year, supposed to be the best goalie look him up
