[Jamaican Patty]

Thank you . Respect .


He’s nearly 200 pounds ( 192 I believe ) ; try again

Still small lol

I mean short ? I guess , he’s a bit below nhl average . But small ? Guy is a fire hydrant

He’s small by NHL standards and he’s not fast. Like I said before he looks small out there and there is nothing wrong with that.

Then why mention it if it’s a non factor ? I feel when his development is done he could be 200 plus ; Crosby ish size ( without the killer quads )

Where did you get his weight is 192? He looks small out there.

That was his weight at the Flyers training camp/ physical

I find that hard to believe. Do you have a source? He’s listed at 172 on NHL and 176 on EP. Nonetheless, he looks small out there.

Wow he looks real small for 190.

 

[QJL]

I said it on draft day. 5 teams made an unbelievable mistake here. Michkov is more valuable than any combination of 2 players from picks 2-6. He will be an absolute superstar and top 5-10 player in this league. Signed - frustrated Rangers fan

He doesn’t tho, he is like a bulldog. short but stocky

The guy is clearly baiting / trying to get a reaction lol. Already ignored him.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Suzuki and Caufield doesn’t need a Michkov. They need a Slafkovski. A Dach and a Laine would benefit from a Michkov but then again would probably be a better with Demidov

This is some insane cope

You’re right, he is short. I give you that.

 

[Mitch nylander]

Not to the degree that Leonard does, no. Like I said, MTL already has players that play the same style as Michkov in the system, and none like Leonard. That was the point.


Should probably delete this post; it’s against site rules.

What player in your system do you have that's comparable to Michkov lol

 

[LeProspector]

Only 2 points in a 7 goal game?

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Not his best game, by any means.

It's 192 and he is built like a brick s house.

Saying a prospect is better than another one for logical reasons is hardly hate mongering . I like Demidov a lot just prefer Michkov. But it sure ruffled many feathers at the perceived slight . Embarrassing how ? Everything I’ve said has been backed up by his performance to date. If anyone should be embarrassed it’s Habs fan and there wild goose chases to discredit him .,,to desperately save face in the eye of a collosal miss. What point of contention did I backpedal on ?

I absolutely agree. Demidov D+1 is blowing out Michkov’s D+1 so far and that says a lot since Michkov D+1 was almost historical. Two future stars.

Anyway, back to Michkov. I’m impressed with how he’s been handling himself since the start of the year. He’s as advertised. Excellent motor and great IQ/Vision with a lot to improve defensively. He will be a dream for fans and gray-hair inhibitor for coaches.

I do look forward to follow him through his long and fruitful career

Jesus lmao

Small scoring wingers? Hmm, maybe the guy currently tied for 2nd in the league in goals?

His iq is tiers above

Maybe not his best, but only 2 points is kind of deceptive. His line produced 6 goals and he assisted on the 7th on the PP, and his zone entries and setup passes were instrumental in like 5 of them. He is the Flyers offense, period.

 

[Dr Jablonski PhD]

I feel like Michkov read my comments about him not scoring enough goals from farther out, which is exactly what I was trying to do, yep. It's called manifestation by shit talking (MBST)

I thought this was his best game of the year, few more tips and he has 5 points, every zone entry and pass he made setup goals or they almost scored, he was definitely the straw stirring the drink on that line all night, and the PP ran through him, as it has since he set foot on the ice it seems in the NHL. Although Coots and Konency had good games too, but I also feel like they're starting to learn how to play with him better / expecting his passes better which is a good sign.
