Nice
Quick, measure him in Lane Hutsons for me.
After all the talk about the Russian politics, KHL contract, etc. It’s weird to just see him standing there. Like a myth is proven to be true.
I know if he wants to get out of his contract he has to pay his way out, and NHL teams cannot. Is a team or maybe an ‘anonymous doner’ allowed to give him the money, then he uses that to pay the fee, since ‘technically’ he would be paying?
For the height stuff- follow up : Also since people are interested in the height. Alex is 6’0, Ced is 6’1. Do whatever calculations you want with that
At this point he’s gonna be taken 4th for sure lol
You know, I never really saw his picture before.
Idk, I had a Romanov face in mind, but he definitely does not look like Romanov haha
He looks solidly built for his height. Thick neck.
PICK HIM PICK HIM PICK HIM
these guys met with Michkov before Arizona got to
I won’t predict 3 and 4’s decisions, but if he’s there at 5 and not taken then it’s factually inexcusable. You take that chance at 5 every time no questions asked.
He looks like a russian Jesse Plemons!
If Michkov makes a really, really good impression with teams, I expect the Sharks to pick him at 4. But if they don’t, I expect the Habs to trade their pick, possibly to Philly for the 7th and 22nd. At 22 there is a good probability of picking an NHL player that is good at some role. And at 7th they’re guaranteed to get a player they really like, such as one of Smith, Benson, Leonard, or Reinbacher.
