RW Matvei Michkov (2023, 7th, PHI) Part 5

[Vinh]

He's getting a feel for that wrister through traffic from the middle. Scored vs. the Caps on a similar look (albeit on the PP). Sneaky weapon.

He, Konecny and Couturier were cooking today. Interesting mix of skill sets.

Wow, I never realized how small Michkov is. Dude looks tiny af on the ice.

It was meant as a jab towards the handful of bitter Habs fan who pollute this thread. And to illustrate how good Michkov is relative to other recent high draft picks. Purely a hypothetical

Sorry didn’t catch on to that. I normally don’t veer onto the main boards. I’m just glad the Flyers finally have something h special and hope they don’t mess it up!

Don’t feed the trolls on the one beacon of hope that we have!

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

Just own it boys
Habs brass tried to be the smartest in the room 2 years in a row
Thought they had legitimate reasons to pass on mm but apparently no
Not the first draft fk up we’ve seen won’t be the last

Thank you . Respect .

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

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

 

[SlobKnox]

Wow he looks real small for 190.

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

 

[HeadLiceHatty]

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

 

[Jamaican Patty]

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

Not reading that wall of broken English. Anything less than being full on in the Michkov-generational-circlejerk on here and you’re labeled a hater. Ridiculous.

Wow and you say ur not mad huh, stick to French forums if simple points don't make sense to you classless punk

 

[LeProspector]

Only 2 points in a 7 goal game?

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Only 2 points in a 7 goal game?

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
