Good news for Montreal Canadiens fans.
There was a familiar face already back around the team today, live from Brossard, after a very short vacation.
Back from vacation, the young Canadiens forward was already on the ice Thursday morning in Brossard.
That quick return says a lot about him.
Demidov could have extended his vacation, but he chose to join his teammates as soon as he returned to the city.
This kid clearly loves the game.
Several players shared the ice with him during the morning workout in Montreal.
A core group is already getting to work well before official team activities begin.
Two other familiar faces rounded out the group.
Ivan Demidov sends a clear message before camp
These summer skates aren’t mandatory, but they say a lot about a player’s commitment.
Demidov is showing that he takes his preparation seriously.
For a young talent carrying this much expectation, every session matters.
His quiet leadership also shows during workouts like this one.
Seeing a rising star put in that much work can push the rest of the group to follow his lead.
Demidov is sending a clear message with training camp just a few weeks away.
He loves the game, and he’s already putting in the work.
