The young Montreal Canadiens forward, Ivan Demidov, is truly having an impressive start in the NHL.<\/p>\n

He is impressive on the ice, but also off it.<\/p>\n

First, remember that Demidov and his girlfriend, Ekaterina Yakovleva, made the decision to spend the entire summer in Montreal.<\/p>\n

Clearly, Demidov wanted to make sure he was 100 percent ready for a market like Montreal, and he has just taken another major step in that direction.<\/p>\n

Ivan Demidov has left social media<\/p>\n

“He deleted all social media from his phone and completely disconnected from the media. I’m not even sure he knows about the betting odds – we’ve never talked about them. Ivan focuses only on hockey and family. He spent the entire summer in Canada training and preparing.”<\/p>\n

Demidov wants to focus solely on hockey and on his family, which is a very good thing.<\/p>\n

“His personal stats don’t really matter to him. I’m pretty sure he doesn’t even track analytics the way fans or journalists do. He just wants to help his team win – that’s what drives him. His dream is to bring the Stanley Cup back to Montreal for the first time since 1993.”<\/p>\n

It is impressive to see a 20-year-old step away from social media, and it is now confirmed that Demidov has indeed left all platforms.<\/p>\n

We are 100 percent behind him.<\/p>\n

His agent, Dan Milstein, also mentioned that the Canadiens’ number 93 does not care at all about his statistics.<\/p>\n

For Demidov, the most important thing is helping the Montreal Canadiens win as many games as possible. We love it.<\/p>\n
