Michkov has been bad the past few games for sure, whole team is brutal though.

I mean their defense has been okay with only 1 goal allowed in 5 periods

Tampa Bay Lightning F Nikita Kucherov Beats Dylan Larkin’s Fastest Skater Record (Video)

He may not have come home with top honors, Tampa Bay Lightning F Nikita Kucherov wasted no time breaking records at the NHL All-Star Skills Competition.

Larkin: 13.172 secs
Kucherov: 13.160 secs
McDavid (winner): 13.020 secs

This type of speed isn’t as important as the short burst that gain space.

 

[NJ DevLolz]

He has been crap the last 2-3 games. Maybe fatigue, maybe a slump, but michkov has not been good the past 2 games.

A healthy scratch could be in play next game.

Fatigue? The kid is 19, almost 20.

Usually not at the 10 game mark

I think it’s just a rookie learning the nhl game

Doesn't help he's playing with another Sochi team that plays a conservative defensive game.
