RW Matvei Michkov (2023, 7th, PHI) Part 4

[billy piton]

reinbacher plays with matheson on the top pairing at the moment. he is probably a placeholder for guhle who is out, tho.

 

[MTL Dirty Birdy]

I assume Michkov will be facing the top pairing , so not so sure about that

Reinbacher will be our top pairing RD in a year or two max along with PK1

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Nice play to setup Frost there

 

[Redpath]

 

[ViD]

That looked like Kaprizov - Zucarello connection

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

His playmaking is being severely slept on

I was just subtly razing ya.

 

[Canadienna]

He's doing the thing. He's using his superior processing and IQ to outwit opponents at an NHL level.

That last assist was a good example. Tons of poise.

 

[Redpath]

Another one

 

[FinlandPanther]

Michkov seems to process the game like Barkov. Kid is gonna be awesome.

He is a Kucherov regen. His ability to create offense is exceptional.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Should be a very interesting Calder race this season. Might be good to get in on Michkov +400 sooner rather than later.

 

[Kshahdoo]

Even when his line doesn't dominate he can create offense out of nothing. Didn't have any scoring chances, and still 2 points, and those were good points.

 

[Drew4u]

He got outplayed in a pre-season game by Jett Luchanko against AHLers.... not a good look.

 

[Zalos]

I'm still debating on whether Michkov or Celebrini will have more points this year. I think Michkov will be surrounded with better talent to help him produce, but I'm worried about Torts and what he might do.

Still, I like what I see of Michkov so far.

I don’t think I’ve ever been as excited for another team’s prospect than him lol. Gonna be watching plenty of Philly games. Kid is a mutant.

Yet ends up with 2 points, your post history is hilarious

Similar to Bedard being a must watch last year, that’s Michkov this year. Not too sure other teams have young guys with that kind of pull.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Potential for a Frost breakout year playing alongside Michkov??

Drysdale too. Michkov is going greatly improve the Flyer’s pp so Drysdale should get lots of points. He might push 50.

 

[Juxtaposer]

There's a bit of Pavelski in this guy.

It’ll be interesting to see. I’m not sensing anywhere near the same kind of must watch hype as Bedard, but Michkov might catch many by surprise.

 

[Fantomas]

Torts just doesn’t want to answer questions about a kid who hasn’t played a game yet
Wouldn’t read anything into that comment

Caught the game this aft. Ouch, sorry for your loss.

 

[Agent Zuuuub]

Boy is a genius.

 

[Hockeypete49]

His IQ is off the charts and his passing, well you better be ready at all times to accept a pass.

Erik Johnson commented on Michkov’s personality too. Said he’s outgoing and a funny guy and noted how that was unique in not only a rookie, but a Russian rookie

Agree. I’ve been beating the drum for a while on his playmaking being his primary value
