I mean, surely Armstrong knows he has played far, far more on NHL ice than anything else? And misspoke on some level?

It would be slightly concerning if our director of player development had not watched enough of Michkov to know that...

I think we all know the answer to that question.

Really goes to show that they have no f***ing clue what they are doing.

This guy likely has a triple digit salary. I mean, come on.

I would actually feel a lot more comfortable if our entire player development and coaching staff never speaks directly to Matvei. Really hoping he doesn’t learn English till torts is gone.

It's always great to see staff not knowing what ice size their #1 prospect plays on

“When asked why he had decided to bench Matvei Michkov 3 games into the season after a 2 goal, 1 assist outing, Coach John Tortorella responded that it would be good for Michkov to see the smaller ice surface from the press box and to study how Scott Laughton and Garnet Hathaway play in their own end of the ice.”

Checks out.

First thing I thought of about 39, was did he play on Olympic/Euro ice that was bigger, and would he have to adjust. So I did 10 min of research to find out that he basically played on NHL sized rinks. One would think a "reporter" would have done that 10 min work before writing.

I mean this should not be surprising right?

 

[TCTC]

Not sure why, but 30's numbers always look like goalie numbers to me.

 

[Zine]

Rotenberg in Russia and Torts in USA. Michkov probably has this playing 24/7....

[Winston Wolf]

Can't believe they're letting him use Marty Murray's number.

 

[FLYguy3911]

That's a hideous number.

 

[Rebels57]

Maybe he's a big Hasek fan? Lol

Fanatics hasn’t released their jerseys for 24-25 yet so they’re just using old stock at the WFC for now.
