All this Michkov talk has me disappointed that I'll never see Fantilli rip up the KHL. Fantilli would be putting up monster numbers there right now. His size, speed, and playstyle is perfect for racking up points there.
No point to this comment other than to try and troll and start a fight.

Yap, I said what kind of false narratievs i mean. And you are immidietly starting to give me arguments I never said. You are making insinuations, boy. I didnt said that Euro leages like KHL or SHL or Finns League or NL are tougher than NHL or on the level, I said the opposit. Please, read your opponents for the beginning.

And Michkov would not be eated by top-6 NHL teams. Or he would be. You dont know because you are not watching him. He is playing exactly like young talented players like Stuzle or McDavid or others - very flashy, very creative, not consistent. But he is showing better level of the game under pressure than you can ask from you young player in NHL. It is your subjective opinion and it is wrong.
The arguments are given, then your false statement simply argues with my statement - the correct one. I will not repeat myself, if you do not know how to listen and read, resorting simply to an evaluative judgment, then just accept the fact that in this situation it is just a collision of two evaluative judgments. While Michkov does not play in the NHL - all this is just an assumption in the end. But if Fantilli looked bad against adults on WC, and now he is already doing part of the work in the NHL, then Michkov, who was able to score enough points against adult players last year, and this year also performs more duties. and winning the fight for the puck against bigger players would also would do part of the duties in the NHL. Your doubts in this situation are too at odds with what is happening on the ice.
And, more importantly, my narrative overall is about A) potential B) need. I dont care who is better in the first year. Reason why Im repeating that people should stop to compare players now. And be patient with Fantilli and Carlsson. I said that its okay to draft centers even with little lower potential but with very great 80-90pts+ potential for the 1C role because even if they will have elite winger, they will win nothing without good 1C. But this center should be very good - Fantilli and Carlsson are very good centers with huge 1C potential. And even if they wil not play better than Michkov, they can make a lot of impact, especially because their teams already have good wingers and supporting stuff. Flyers have less. And Michkov for now will be in much worser situation, like Kaprisov in Wild. Kucherov was best players(at least best forward\best skater) for Tampa, they had huge success, Kucherov was great and impactful, best in the business, but because they had good centers Point and Stamkos. Like I said without good centers in the prime absolutelty great winger Ovechkin(or Jagr for example without Lemieux) couldnt won it. This is what I translated. But again you are trying to fight with windmills and you attribute to me thoughts and words that I didn't broadcast and didn't say.
Im asking you to be more classy again.

Says the one who makes claims on my behalf.

Like I said living in a fantasy land, ”I’m always right everyone else is wrong”

Moving forward I hope you remember this is Fantilli thread

Mo with a pretty little play to keep the puck in before moving it over and getting the secondary assist. He's had a few chances tonight to get his own as well.

Too bad we couldn’t see Leo heads up with Fantilli tonight but real nice game from Adam(o)!

His ice time has quickly risen from 15 minutes to 17 minutes to over 19 minutes this game a half-dozen into his career. Aside from maybe some conditioning breathers here and there, it’s hard to see him not continuing to be a big minutes hoss right from the jump.

This 2023 top end of the draft is going to be one of those classes we look back in like 5 years and say “holy sh!t” that was a loaded group.

Started OT as well and had helped generate a few good opportunities.

It is. His family is extremely Italian so his name in Italian is Adamo. So his nickname around his family and in the room apparently is Mo.

Also...

His speed has surprised me. IDK why but man when he gets going in a straight line he's hard to stop and extremely dangerous. He's great at utilizing it to gain the zone I've noticed.

Mackinnon was brought up here during his draft year/offseason, with how he can push the play.

& that’s why many thought he’s an ideal fit for Columbus.

That’s always been his strength
His coach last year (naurato) said when asked what he could improve on was that his speed allows him to have more time than he thinks in the offensive zone on rushes. Just wants him to take a breath on rushes and go through his progressions with on if it is right to attack or pull up and set up their systems.

His acceleration is pretty impressive. At one point during OT someone dropped the puck to him when he was basically standing still and he was able to get moving away from the defender and keep possession.

I'm really happy with Carlsson and obviously Blue Jacket fans should be very happy with Fantilli. I hope they both turn out to be awesome players, with Carlsson being a little better obviously :sarcasm:.

No sarcasm, there’s nothing that indicates Fantilli is so much better than Michkov who’s recording historic numbers in the KHL this season
And Fantilli has a better PPG than Bedard this year up to this point… what’s your point?

It’s kind of a pointless argument with Michkovs numbers in the KHL because Fantilli isn’t playing their. No way to know what his numbers would be.

Hence why any AINEC comparisons are meaningless right now
