Unraveling the Mystery: Why the Debate Over Matvei Michkov Defies Logic
This season, though, under Tocchet, that number has plummeted nearly two full minutes down to 14:53, and, as a result, Michkov’s offensive production has suffered.
With five goals, five assists, and 10 points in 21 games, Michkov is on pace for a measly 20-goal, 40-point season.
That said, though, despite a 33% regression from Michkov, Tocchet still has his supporters who believe the Flyers’ franchise player hasn’t earned further opportunities.
For example, former NHLer Colby Cohen argued for Daily Faceoff that, because Michkov doesn’t kill penalties, “he’s never going a 20-minutes-a-night guy.”
