Sick post, love how you poke in to cope and leave lol.
Agree, I watched Giroux since Gatineau, always thought he had PPG talent, Michkov is on a whole other level thus far in their development stages and also just raw talent at the same ages.

They were always in a 1A / 1B draft class, each of them do things better than the other, who knows who will be clearly better in the end. The crazy thing is I think Michkov might be able to be more effective at center, he’s like 63% in the dot rn, lmao, one win led to a goal
I agree. He obviously can carry the puck (like 2:40 or 6:40 in this great video), but sometimes he gets stuck on the boards and just watches the game, like a modern-day Ovechkin on the power play. I don't know if it's his endurance problem or maybe coaching thing. I'd be interested to see him play center.
Michkov a 5v5 point wait, he can’t do that. Shoulda had 2 made a super smart little pass on the first goal didn’t get a point. Guy is buzzing right now

Playing center is about more than faceoffs. Michkov’s lack of speed and two-way game would be a disaster there long term. Opposing teams would be salivating.They were always in a 1A / 1B draft class, each of them do things better than the other, who knows who will be clearly better in the end.

"A disaster! Michkov's a complete inadequate," reports local oaf.

The truth is both are on quite the same level now. Wish them both to be the best versions of themselves. They were best players of their generation for a very long time and its not that hard to see now why.
Michkov got his first career even strength point today! First of many! Congrats Matvei

True! Lafreniere would be a 95-100 pts player right now with PP1. Crazy how good he is playing

As one of the best young players in recent years - its very interesting how Michkov will develop through this current season. Its not the rocket science he has potential to be 100-120 points player. But whats about this specific season. Will he hit the wall or will he start to figure it out right through this season and will produce even more. Of course if he will stay healthy.
This post was in the last thread comparing guys who were considered generational. It seemed a bit unfair to me. I know, the poster was trying to use same aged years, but Michkov regardless of his age is still a rookie.
Here are those guys first 7 games in the NHL for those above guys.
McDavid: 6 points in 7 gp
Crosby: 9 points in 7 gp
Ovechkin: 8 points in 7 gp
Lindros: 7 points in 7 gp
Lemieux: 6 points in 7 gp
Gretzky: 10 points in 7 gp
As I type this, he scores a goal against Minnesota.

A goal at even-strength, but on the delayed penalty. Are we counting that as 5 on 5?
Using his shot more than he did in the KHL last season.

Another goal for the teenager, at 5v5, wait he can't do that.

still trying to trust the yzerplan
Where is that guy who said Michkov couldn't shoot?

Lmao that’s great coming from you. I’ve got nothing to cope for. My team didn’t take Michkov, and I didn’t want them to take him before the draft. Can’t speak for all Habs fans, but that’s the reality for me. The fanboys really took offense to that for some reason. Whether that’s right or wrong remains to be seen, but he’s looking like pretty much exactly what I expected, and why I didn’t want him, i.e., a good offensive winger with some serious flaws and deficiencies in his game. Keep revelling in those powerplay points though.
Sorry for your loss
