Since the selection of Ivan Demidov by the Canadiens, the organization has never hidden its strong interest in drafting the Russian player.

It should be recalled that last year, many fans were disappointed to see the Tricolore pass on Matvei Michkov at the 5th overall pick.
Michkov was ultimately chosen 7th overall by the Flyers. Kent Hughes and his team selected defenseman David Reinbacher.
Since then, comparisons between the two Russian players have been plentiful, sparking frequent debates on social media.
Who will have the greater career and make the biggest impact with their team?
Fans are weighing in, and discussions can get quite intense.
"Demidov played better than Michkov during the preseason; SKA only sent him down to the MHL because he refused to sign a contract extension. Michkov signed a contract with SKA, but the club didn't want him anyway; he was loaned to Sochi."

Both sides of the debate are discussed in this ongoing discussion.
"Michkov is a notch above Demidov as a prospect. I'm a Rangers fan, so ultimately it doesn't matter to me. But Michkov is closer to [Connor] Bedard than Demidov is to Michkov."
