Ivan Demidov Out Due to Visa Issue; Will Miss Upcoming Games for Canadiens

Ivan Demidov's absence is due to a visa issue, not an injury, which has kept him from joining the team. The Montreal Canadiens have not given a timeline for his return, leaving his status uncertain.

Demidov's impact on the ice is currently unknown, as there are no game stats for him this season. The team has yet to release any updates on how long the situation might persist.
