Kent Hughes, the general manager of the Montreal Canadiens, may soon take action due to the situation with the Carolina Hurricanes.

The recent signing of Evgeny Kuznetsov with SKA St. Petersburg for four seasons has likely pushed Ivan Demidov out of the Russian club's main lineup.
SKA, already having eight established forwards, prefers not to remove one of its current players to prioritize Demidov, who will leave the team in a year.
Demidov, a promising prospect for the Canadiens, is now far down the SKA hierarchy, which could hinder his development.
With the Hurricanes having let Kuznetsov go, Kent Hughes might consider bringing Demidov back to North America to maximize his growth.
This could be an opportunity for the Canadiens to ensure Demidov develops in the best possible environment. This situation will be worth monitoring closely in the coming months.
