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

[Sombastate]

Trust me I was all ready for the flyers to take Leonard at 7 when Matvei fell into their lap. I can't answer for other teams picks just happy we got Matvei.

This is exactly how I felt. I called my brother on the phone to preemptively get consoled

I still can’t believe he was drafted 7th overall.

What on earth was Montreal thinking when they picked Reinbacher over Michkov?

Dumb decisions makes draft so much fun. Historical bad decisions makes wonders with draft. People care. Because you never know who and how will draft. It is so interesting to remember this situations. And think about how this or that team could change their Historical direction. This is why there are so many people on this board.

Pretty quiet game for him through 2 periods.

First period he hardly even touched the puck. Second period was a little better. To be expected since Boston has pretty much their full squad and he’s up against Bostons first line.

That’s because besides Michkov the Flyers offense is as impotent as it can be. 5 Shots through half the game. The D’s can’t make a first pass even if their life depends on it. Possession was nonexistent, lots of bad passes/turnovers and even the PP looked bad. I was really shocked how weak the Flyers looked against a real NHL team. Michkov had almost no opportunities to shine at all.
