The young Montreal Canadiens forward Ivan Demidov is a very special player.
TVA Sports journalist Anthony Martineau just shared a story that proves it in a big way!

Here's an excerpt from Martineau's segment about it, on Tony Marinaro's Sick Podcast:
"What makes the difference with Ivan Demidov, for me, is... you know, he's very talented, but it's not just that he's passionate about hockey.
He's a guy who lives only for hockey.
You know that goal he scored on the one-timer? For me, that was extremely satisfying to watch.
Why?
Because since the start of the season, I've seen Ivan Demidov get frustrated during practice because his one-timers weren't up to his standards.
I think he's taken more one-timers in practice than Patrik Laine!"

Once again, this says a lot about the impeccable work ethic of young Demidov. This time, his hard work in practice directly led to a big goal that helped the Montreal Canadiens secure a win.
At just 19 years old, Ivan Demidov already has 9 points in 10 games this season. We can't wait to see what else he has to bring this season!
