Michkov has logged 21+ min 3 times already. I don’t think Torts is out to get the kid. There really is nothing wrong with having a seat in the press box multiple times a year for any player in their first few seasons.
I read on the mains if the flyers figure he needs a stint in a league other than the NHL he can go right back to KHL and bypass the AHL?

He’s their 2nd leading scorer. Maybe Torts should try to actually coach him by communicating and taking 1 on 1 time with him.
I bet...that he's been trying to communicate with him and coach him since day one of training camp.

Well i hope he figures it out in the nhl for the flyers sake
According to the main board, he already has. He's apparently already better than Bedard.

Honestly, I saw someone qualify his game against the Habs as very good. I had to double check if he really wrote that because he was complete ass during that game. A lot of posters here are unreliable.

Man if he was drafted by the habs and followed the exact same trajectory it would be disgusting here. Coach is ruining him, turning him into a grinder, possibly xenophobic etc. Cant say I'm sad to see the cult of michkov humbled a bit.

Different framing of the situation. Carlsson was framed as load management coupled with more time to train at the gym, to add to his massive frame.

IMO Michkov will (should?) be fine.
Ana never “scratched” him - it was reported Verbeek and his agent had a load management plan in place before the season even started as to when he’d be rested & when he’d play
Didn't Torts say openly that they also have a development plan? So yes maybe it's not as explicit as Anaheim, but I don't see how it's bad for development if your rookie, who is not playing well at 5v5, would sit one game in the pressbox.

Torts said Michkov is fine on the PP but has a lot to learn about 5 on 5 hockey and how to play outside offensive zone

Can someone explain to me how this works?

It sounds like the ncaa is opening its doors to more talent but this tweet suggests that the best chl programs will get an even bigger boost from this?

Players won't lose NCAA eligibility by playing in the CHL, so top prospect kind of get to pick and choose whatever they feel is best for them without committing their entire junior career on this single choice.

Man, Sens really suck on the road. They're 1-5-0. They're now 7th in Atlantic / 13th in Conference.

Buffalo destroyed NYR tonight. Great work!
