Seems like Russian reporters are doing actual work while the Flyers reporters are guessing

 

[GKJ]

ok, someone let me know if what I was reading on google this morning is for real or am I seeing crap and need to have my head examined. which doctors haven't found anything in.

Michkov contract with KHL is going to be terminated from this rumor i read. I hate rumors. I want official.

I hope this is for real and I'm not going bat S%^t crazy or I'm seeing Stars and if you play this song, make sure your speakers are loud where the neighboors will call the cops.

They’re not going to have sources in Russia anyways.

Flyers reporters scooped and are flailing

Agreed. I just think some of the tweets from that guy from The Athletic are like "unless it comes from us. Wait to believe it."

It’s just because the Flyers aren’t saying anything. The same thing happened with Fedotov and we found out things moved much quickly and/or were further along than anyone knew

 

[PALE PWNR]

Are they actually going to get him early??? That would be crazy considering everything pre draft was doom and gloom hes going to be in Russia for at least 3 more years.

 

[trostol]

Shouldn't but will change their timeline sadly

 

[mr figgles]

Michkov coming over! To be coached by Jorts and Rocky… is this one of them there monkey paw deals?

 

[Winston Wolf]

Of course I moved to New York right when the Flyers might actually have something to look forward to.

Douchenozzle McDouchenozzle.

John Tortorella turned Martin St. Louis into Martin St. Louis.

One can only guess what would he turn Michkov into

 

[DancingPanther]

What a shame. Need to keep this kid far away from the Godking Emperor and his followers

If the option is torts or being in a warzone and potentially a siberian prison....ill take torts.

Like lambs to the slaughter.

It'll be a warzone every day when we see Torts start to play mind games from minute #1.

How do you guys think he'll establish dominance? Maybe a team wide film humiliation?

Like lambs to the slaughter.

These 3 nitwits are the type of people that "critique" movies out loud in the theater

 

[trostol]

Like lambs to the slaughter.

Exactly why this organization will never succeed

 

[kudymen]

Is that the same guy who kept pondering "whether it is too early for Connor Bedard in the rebuild?"

/rhetorical

 

[BiggE]

Get him to North America first, worry about all else second. Take this chance while we have it.

I can not wait to see this guy in Philadelphia. The most excited I've ever been for a Flyers debut.

More excited than you were for 88’s debut in 92?

You must be a youngster, lol.

I was convinced we were going to win multiple Stanley Cups. Sigh.

 

[Magua]

Coming over sooner to leave in free agency sooner when they can't build a team.

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Not so sure this is a good thing, as excited to watch him play as I am.

Easier when you speak the language and are where the player actually is.

You and me both.
