Prospect Info: Round 1, 7th overall: Matvei Michkov, RW, SKA St. Petersburg (KHL)

[Kermit the Prog]

I am pleased to inform you the English is Banana Republic

Also a one-time (1990s) respectable fashion line.

 

[scumpup]

I hope michkov stays on Sochi as long as possible because theyre definitely getting him his proper amount of ice time. Looks good out there.

 

[Redpath]

Just scored his first goal of the season.

Make that 4 points in 4gp with Sochi.

he spends 2 periods making all kinds of high danger plays that just miss by a hair or ring the post and then scores just being where needs to be with his stick on the ice lol

Kid has his head on a swivel with hands to match.

Don't worry, Galchenyuk is still a star on SKA...

Seriously, f***ing amazing.

 

[Audible Velvet]

We’ll have something worth watching at some point. He’s looking preeetty good.

Until he requests a trade. Those first couple months will be magic though. Go Flyers Birds

 

[PK16]

The Michkov/Habs thread on the Prospects board is not going to be happy with tonight’s results.

A relief, because I spent years watching Schenn miss out on easy goal feeds from Giroux because he'd always wander around with his stick waist high. I think that's the cause of everything wrong with me.

It's not just you, broheim. It's not just you...

 

[Expectations]

Looking good

Maddening even though I had that habit in my playing days. Took a few benchings and practices until I conditioned myself to keep my stick on the effin ice like my coach used to scream at me from the bench...

Are you saying coaches have to ride players until they break bad habits?
I thought it's more effective if he quietly whispered a suggestion?

I was in HS...back in the day there were no fragile egos to be had and coaches would pretty much haze players. I mean he had politically incorrect nicknames for all of us....

Kinda different from deliberately creating feuds for no reason.

I'd also count that as "skill development," a thing the Flyers oppose and never do for any player at any level.

Vinny Lecavalier’s slow line changes are the thing that drove me insane. Watching Vinny peel away on a long one legged loop then coast to the bench was truly maddening. If I were a coach at the time, every video session would have begun with a good 20 minutes of watching and rewinding each of his changes in silence.

He was not happy to be here

 

[Embiid]

Truly a Lecadaverlier.....

Holmgren was so proud of that signing...

 

[deadhead]

Still, not sure about Michkov, I mean Weal has 9 points in 9 games in the KHL. I think MIchkov has to score 1.5 ppg to be taken seriously.

No, best way it to scratch a player because his family's in attendance..........

 

[Dr Jablonski PhD]

Holy shit. What a player. He also blocked a shot right before that led to that rush in the first place

 

[gto64dr]

Wow! The first pre-season and everyone's head is already exploding. We sent injury recovering players, rookies and our worst goalteners against a potential Stanley cup team that was mostly complete. What about all this rebuild talk and letting young guys get playing time?
