Analytics can help enunciate what the eye test says. It’s just not the whole story, ever. Teams have an analytics department, and even then, the eye test leads the way.

xGF is one of the most misused, misunderstood metrics used in hockey in discussing offense. It’s like pointing to +/- alone to refer to great defense. The eye test will always determine more than what the paper or spreadsheet says.

Unfortunately, won't be at the #Flyers game again tonight due to illness, but do have a big Porter Martone story dropping soon on the work he did the past year at Michigan State to prepare him for the impressive start to his NHL career.

There is a system Michkov has to adjust to. Tortorella allowed much more of a leash than Tocchet, which let him play his game to his strength. That much is fair.

In this instance, calling Cates garbage isn’t accurate either. I would absolutely say that he’s been a standout this season, and no one is talking about it. Is that a hot take? Maybe. The upcoming offseason will determine a lot about Michkov. #Flyers #LetsGoFlyers

@EricReeseFN Talented players have should play with talented players. We saw it with Coots. Putting talented guys w/garbage just to “learn a system” that’s failed for years, it’s an injustice & the reason the flyers always stink.

Agreed. Michkov is by no means a third line RW. He has to learn this system and whatnot, but the reaction that people had in terms of calling him a bust was completely out of pocket. It’s probably a collective worst take on any #Flyers conversation this season. #LetsGoFlyers

@nastyflyergirl @EricReeseFN i just want him paired with the right players, proper ice time and let him go.

I’ll fill in the other 1% of the season before #PHIvsNYI. ‘Flyers Twitter admits fault on a crappy Michkov take.’ To those who didn’t jump to the wild idea to move on from Michkov, call him a bust, and more after Game 75/82 of 2025-2026: good on you. #Flyers #LetsGoFlyers

95% of the season: ‘Tocchet is terrible. He put Michkov at LW.’ 3% of the season: ‘Michkov is at RW and he’s immediately better. Flyers Twitter told you, Tocchet!’ 1% of the season: ‘Jettison Michkov out of Philadelphia.’ Stooges. #Flyers #LetsGoFlyers

@FlyersNation 4-2 Almost immediately, DeBrincat puts the #RedWings back up by two goals. The puck just barely snuck beyond the goal line. Sanheim flubbed the clear before Kane located DeBrincat on the scoring play. #LGRW #DETvsPHI
