Right but not impossible, understandable if he dosen't no doubt just wondering if there is a possibility where he is allowed

He's allowed, it's just probably not worth the hassle
As far as I remember Miroshnichenko visited the last year's draft so why can't Michkov? The only reason is he doesn't want but it looks he really cares about the draft.

Russian players will be at the draft as usual unless we hear some sort of announcement to the contrary.

I like this, other teams will see it as a red flag and my team is going to grab him at 7-10th

We don’t know if he’s allowed to the combine or not. The decision hasn't been made yet.
Guys playing in Russia have always attended… with the exception of last year when the NHL opted not to invite them.
I guess we’ll find out soon enough if the NHL does the same this year.

Does anyone know if he did anything wrong as a toddler? Just really anything at all that could red flag him down to where the Blues pick.

Not a chance! He is/was the chosen one:
It sucks to see, but this is about as bad as it gets.
Only team that should even bother drafting such a risk with a first round pick is if that team has a second first rounder, everyone else should kindly let him slide

While I really like his game I sure would not want the Hawks to hang their hat on a guy that, like many of our Russian picks, never comes over.

Damn...well that's unfortunate because now I have to make stuff up to make my dream come true.
Love Matvei, excited to follow him no matter where he ends up.
If he drops to the habs around 6-7th pick and they pass on him I will be really mad

Doesn't this basically make him complicit in war crimes? He was clearly planning the invasion for the last decade.
On that note, let's hope Matvei has his military service sorted out or he might find himself sharing a bunkbed with Ivan Fedotov.
Stat wise he leads the team in scoring, both in points and goals, in those 19 games he's played. He has 6+4, the closest to him are Nikolayev and Popov both with 7 points and 4 goals... I mean 18 year old kid leads the KHL team in scoring and is its best player by far.
To put it into perspective, the only other top prospect who plays in a professional league is Leo Carlsson, he's 7-9th in scoring and 6th in PPG on his team.

Another point after two periods, and he was injured. Hope nothing serious, at least it didn't look very serious.
And another point. Great pass on a PP goal. And goal. Impressive laser. 3 point game for Matvei.
A friend of mine sent me a text “I’m in Sochi, came to watch Michkov play, mesmerized by his skills!”
