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

How the heck Tippett gets away with everything? The guy is completely useless given the ice time he gets

He's quite the rollercoaster. I don't think the flyers reclamation projects are going to turn out well over time.

Even if it worked, I think that it's a stupid play. Maybe 1% chance of scoring even if you hit exactly where you aim(low chance to begin with), no passing threat, no rebound threat, giving up possession on 3-on-3.

Much more useful to maintain possession until getting a high danger chance, and if you don't find one, carry the puck away, change, regroup and try again.

I get it, but an NHL goalie cannot give that goal up, regardless. That's an awful goal.

NHL goalies give up that goal all the time. It’s a huge issue in goaltending.

I'm starting to see why Matvei fanbois are so sensitive. Poor guy is criticized for a play on which he scored. I guarantee you he saw an opening. That's what special players do.

Torts is benching him for that, next game.

This . He scored , are we really gonna spin this into a negative ? Odd man chances happen all the time in ot . He took his shot . He was obviously very accurate with it / saw an opening . Kid keeps producing despite his deployment / minutes . The end .

First time i've ever seen scoring a game winning goal mean that a player is actually worse.

If you think it was a 1% play, you have never watched MM play for more than 5 minutes, that's all I can say.
