I've been trying to find out more information lately with Boris Mikhailov. Through various interviews in different hockey documentaries, he is seemed to be dubbed the 'greatest player in the world' during the 60's and 70's.
It's really interesting to me that he is (or was) regarded as the top player during that time over others like Yakushev, Petrov and Kharlamov - and they all played with each other at some point. He seemed to a prime two-way threat, but again, not much out there
