@Anth_Chatburn @PSE4133 Posting stats without analysis isn't really a take. The implication is the take. If the implication is that Michkov is playing as badly as a bottom 6 forward and hasn't earned more TOI, I agree. And that's fair. I don't think you are saying he's worse than Hathaway.

@PSE4133 what part of that take is insane? Im not trying to be a dick, what part are you struggling with? I'm calling out the compulsion to compare players with perhaps the best and most direct comp available. You're bothered by that because?

Just for shits and giggles... Garnett Hathaway has 1G, 1A in 6GP averaging 10:40/gp. Matvei Michkov has 0G, 1A in 7GP averaging 12:10/gp So how's this work, X?

@Anth_Chatburn @goalfarabee86 Oh my God. Imagine growing up with the Giroux era as your basis for Flyers hockey. That's terrible. This rebuild season matched the best season of the Giroux captaincy, during which the team had the benefit of COVID-19 round robin tournament.

Josh wont answer the question because he still has a Giroux poster above his bed. What was the highest paid player on the team doing when Konecny was ayoungster, Josh? And why is it not a fair question or criticism. Weird how TK can ruin the FLyers but not the disappearing G.
josh@goalfarabee86

Travis Konecny has half the playoff goals Andrew MacDonald has in 4 more playoff games Anthony Chatburn won’t tell you that because Claude Giroux “ruined” the Philadelphia Flyers

@Anth_Chatburn @Lets_Go_Flyers Giroux's career points per game is noticeably worse in the playoffs, and his stats are buoyed by a great 2012 PO run. Anyone claiming that he wasn't a PO disappointment during his captaincy has rose colored goggles.

@Lets_Go_Flyers Yeah, josh is bad with things like that. I mean, it's embarassing right, that during MacDonald's Flyers tenure he scored more goals than Giroux. or are we changing the rules again.

@Ephilly34 @JohnKincade I'll go there: it will be bad. Even at his peak, he made mediocre soft rock. Now, he's past the mandatory retirement age for many jobs and looks like a grandmother. It will be 3 hours of indecipherable grunting (which I usually like), except without an audible guitar.

@JoshDenny @M_donaher If you think one player makes or breaks a power play, then you don't know puck. The Flyers need to abandon the umbrella and give a primary puck-handler control of the puck behind the net and in the corner.

The MichMoms love this graphic, forgetting that it’s inflated from his low ice time that they can’t shut up about, and the fact that 3 of these other guys also kill penalties.

@SuitableAlias You clearly don't understand what you are watching when you see a hockey game. Team defense was fine. Coverage, back checking, and all forms of defensive pressure were very good. It was the breakout that was abysmal. Bad passes and turn overs, and Michkov was very culpable.

The whole team got cooked defensively lol. Not that Michkov didn't (he did) Just hilarious that everyone on the roster gets a pass except the one dude who was doing anything the other way.
Anthony Di Marco@ADiMarco25

Michkov is still struggling in his own end - no question at all. But guess what: he's one of the few forwards making a difference up front So, unfortunately, you have to love with his defensive issues. Once the other forwarss enter the chat we can start complaining about 39.

@DistortedGio @PHLEaglesNation He has no input on the defense or what Fangio does. Also, for a "culture" guy, they have had two seasons with collapses, internal drama, and now the franchise's best WR wants out. Sirianni is a product of what Howie built and gives the team very little advantage.

Nick Sirianni is responsible for the entire team performance on the field and leaving with a win. He's currently managing total team talent well enough to be one the best head coaches currently in the league and considered one of the best all time in the period of time he's been coaching. Where the offense has failed, Sirianni has succeeded with the defense. His CULTURE is WINNING even when his QB isn't.

Boston Scott implies that Nick Sirianni does not get nearly enough blame for the #Eagles past offensive struggles. “It makes me feel some type of way that Jalen Hurts, AJ Brown, Kevin Patullo, and Brian Johnson get some of the criticism they do.”

@FlyersNation What kind of message is it to play him more than 8 minutes when he's been the worst top 9 forward though? There are other guys on the team contributing and that would be unfair to them. These are the playoffs. Way bigger than one player who isn't earning his ice time.

This is exhausting, and Rick Tocchet still doesn’t trust him at all. I personally wouldn’t scratch one of your two main cogs for the future, especially when this was supposed to be about giving the young guys playoff experience. I also wouldn’t have had him playing only 8-11 minutes a night. Hopefully it works out. I can get behind this as a one-game reset, but there’s no way Matvei’s getting back in the lineup if they win Game 5. There’s your scapegoat for one loss. And yes, I know he’s struggled this series. It’s just not a move I would’ve made. I see the thought process though…they’re gonna play Rick Tocchet hockey again in Game 5 and suffocate PIT. Hopefully Alex Bump makes the most of this. Go FLYERS.
Charlie O'Connor@charlieo_conn

Michkov is with Garrett Wilson and Carl Grundstrom in line rushes. Alex Bump is with Noah Cates and Tyson Foerster. Looks like Michkov might be out for Game 5.

@Pat_Egan But he won't lose weight in the off-season or show up on time for meetings. Or show accountability when the team fails. Appreciate him trying to play, but he is hardly some gritty hero. His legacy is a mixed bag, and it's hard not to feel done with him.

@Anth_Chatburn @Lets_Go_Flyers Giroux was (and still is, apparently) underwhelming in the post season, outside of that one 2012 Pittsburgh series. Product of being a PP merchant who would get lost in his own zone.

@Korzagg77 @jwindheim @JonMarksMedia Love it when dumb people think they are smart. You didn't explain anything. She didn't cause a rift. The rift predated her reports, given he asked for a trade after week 5. Again, what "leverage" did she create for NE? Didn't affect his value, didn't affect his desire to be here.

@MikeSabs89 @jwindheim @JonMarksMedia It’s tampering. NE knows it’s tapering, that’s where the leverage in negotiations come from. Her “reporting” targeted one person and could be viewed as causing a divide between thy player and his current team to lower trade value, didn’t realize I had to explain the obvious

@Korzagg77 @jwindheim @JonMarksMedia You still haven't explained how her reports have created leverage. Your statements are incomplete. Other reports suggested Howie was speaking with other teams who backed out rather than wait after June 1. Wouldn't reports about NE help the birds by creating a hotter market?

@MikeSabs89 @jwindheim @JonMarksMedia Ok and? The Eagles aren’t required to trade him, and they really aren’t required to trade him to NE. Yes it is leverage in a negotiation, to think it’s not is small minded thinking.

@Raiderfrank65 @charlieo_conn He's having trouble securing and maintaining possession. When he gets it, he's as skilled as anyone. But I wouldn't really say he's playing well. You, generally, need to get and possess the puck to do something creative or dangerous

Michkov was looking dangerous in the o-zone, but while he has the puck, Barkey gets nabbed for a high-stick on Letang. Yup, he got him good. Miscue by the rookie, and the Penguins will go on the PP.

@Korzagg77 @jwindheim @JonMarksMedia It didn't help or hurt. It had no impact on anything material. AJ wanted out of here since week 5 last season, and Howie's asking price doesn't come from media reports. He's having direct conversations with the Patriots.
