Kent Hughes reveals a big secret about Ivan Demidov
After the first round of the 2024 draft, Montreal Canadiens General Manager, Kent Hughes, emptied his bag in a press conference
After playing the game for weeks, he finally gave his true opinion on the young Ivan Demidov, and we were pleased to learn that there were never any doubts in the minds of the Canadiens' management.
It was always Demidov.
Kent Hughes: "Very true."

The Montreal Canadiens Have Always Loved Ivan Demidov
We are so happy to hear that.
Kent Hughes even added that the interview with Demidov was possibly the best he has ever done.
But that's not all.
The Canadiens' GM revealed a little secret about the real reason for his famous absence (as well as that of Jeff Gorton) at Ivan Demidov's "Combine" in Florida.
An absence that had sparked a lot of chatter.
Wow! They wanted him so much, and they were so convinced, that they pretended not to be too interested in Demidov, notably by not attending his "Combine" and meeting in Florida.
They did everything to hide their enormous interest in Ivan Demidov.
It's brilliant, and we love it!
What an incredible acquisition for the Montreal Canadiens.
