If this makes him less likely to take penalties… cool Maybe it lights a bigger fire under his butt? It will make him appreciate Marty and the nhl and the Habs a lot more though He’s not going to lose his talent

I mean I get that coaches sometimes need to send a message to a player if they keep making mistakes. Benching a guy during that game is one thing, demoting him to the 4th line and playing him 4 minutes when he has pretty much been your best player is a whole other story.

I wonder if SKA is doing this to try and raise the price from the Habs. With the Russian sanctions, the owner may need money. That said, can we even buy him out since that could go against the sanctions.

We’d have him over in 24 hrs of a GoFundMe campaign for the Habs. Match a charity too.

Man, at this rate, his last KHL season is going to be tedious and exhausting.

Could be on 3rd line in biggest league/biggest team in history… but he’s rotting on 4th in russia. Great!

I’m talking out my ass, but my theory is Rotenberg is a jealous cunt who thinks letting the kid shine will make him lose control over the team, or that he thinks Demigod will feel above them/the KHL.
Kid just wants to fkn play, and he’ll make the team better, ideally elevating other players around.

Can we just make a “Demidov ice time” megathread?

I get that we’re mad. But they won 3-0 and they’re not a development league for the NHL. So I think we’re mad at the wrong person. Molson should get off his wallet and pay SKA/CKA whatever they want to have them terminate his contract. The Flyers did it. Guess they care about winning more than Molson.

Habs need to get in touch with Mcdonalds and get this man a *Demi pound burger* kind of sponsorship deal so he can buy his way out.

Rotenberg saw the instagram edit and got a boner and because he felt awkward he benched him today.

Looks like his respect for Russia is going to be… limited

I legit think the team is holding his development hostage to up the price we’ll have to pay to fix the situation. I pray he comes over before the end of the year somehow.

By the time he gets here he will need to be taught [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKPjLtXVBUM) is not a reward
