After weeks of waiting, Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens have finally made their first pick in the 2024 draft.
They have chosen the young forward Ivan Demidov.
This is a major selection for the future of the organization, adding to Juraj Slafkovsky, David Reinbacher, Cole Caufield, Nick Suzuki, Kirby Dach, Lane Hutson, and others.
It's starting to become a solid core.
Demidov is extremely talented and is undoubtedly the best player in this draft session (after Celebrini). Demidov, 18, is a 6-foot, 190-pound winger. He has amassed 60 points in 30 games this season in St. Petersburg.
More details will follow.
