Michkov didn't want Montreal.

Montreal didn't want Michkov.

:mod edit:

Michkov was never going to be a Montreal Canadiens even if the management/scouting staff was high on him. Friedman said as much on a recent 32 thoughts, Michkov and his camp orchestrated their destination.

And if the Habs didn't have Reinbacher our future at RD would look pretty thin. This guy is solid for a 5th pick.

HFHabs in shambles and on that copium.

It's fine who would want Kane/Panarin 2.0.


You can both be happy an recognize how amazing Michkov is, no need to lie to yourself.

We can recognize Michkov is a great talent and not beat the dead horse every time he plays a game. He's not a Montreal Canadiens, if you love him so much, just go talk with Philly fans about him where it will be more receptive.

You mean the duo that got eliminated in the first round of the playoffs the two years they played together?

We might be if the Michkov talk hadn't gotten so toxic on HFHabs.

The Michkov talk got toxic on both sides. Some of the character assassination was absolutely laughable.

Call it Selanne and Kariya then. Every single team would take a Panarin/Kane duo, it's just blatant lying to say no management would take them both on a team.

He was on the ice to defend a lead and got an ENG? Damn, HFHabs in shambles.



Much rather have the two russians.
Yeah, but Michkov orchestrated his way to Philly.

He went to meet with the flyers organization in Phildelphia.

The insiders, depending on how much you trust them have stated Michkov almost pulled a Jagr, but not to the same extent

That's fine. I'm sure the Habs couldn't have convinced him otherwise...?

All this Mitchkov talk had me excited only to find out it was a eng lol never change HF. :eyeroll:

Getting an ENG in the NHL as someone that is supposed to be terrible defensively and a cherry picker, I found that pretty cool, no?

Maybe, but what are you saying if the Habs select him and he refuses to come here?

That's likely why the Habs were just like you know what, there's a potential headache.

Plus they would have had a chance to talk to him and would have gotten a pretty good idea as to his mindset. Plus, the Habs likely have people who talk to other teams and heard that Michkov was really hoping, targeting, whatever you want to use for the flyers and the Habs decided to just pass.

Having Michkov and Demidov would be sick, but if one doesn't want to be there and you know, then you just avoid said player.

Furthermore, you draft that player and then trade him for a dud like Drysdale potentially and it looks even worse.
