VIDEO: Breaking down Michkov’s and Luchanko’s NHL debuts
He is here. Matvei Michkov has donned the Orange and Black and is officially a Philadelphia Flyer. So far, through the rookie camp, preseason, training camp, and the first three regular-season games, the 19-year-old has beyond impressed us. His ability to read plays in the offensive zone while also giving a crap everywhere else on the ice, is just a pleasure to watch.
But, when he first stepped on NHL ice in Vancouver, how did it go? We know that he ended the game without any points and was on the ice for 18 minutes and 32 seconds — but how did it truly go beyond the boxscore? Additionally, we shouldn’t make light of the fact that Jett Luchanko is also here.
