The Flyers lost their 6th straight game last night.
Don’t care, nobody gives a shit.
So all things considered, last night was a resounding win for the Flyers.
It was the summer of 2004.
A few months later, Matvei Michkov was born.
All Michkov has ever known was a world where Alexander Ovechkin was the greatest goal scorer on the planet.
His entire life has coincided with Ovechkin’s career.
Last night was a little better.
Sure, the Flyers dug themselves into a 0-4 hole to start the game.
But then they finally started to show a little fight toward the end of the 2nd period.
It all started with this powerplay SNIIIIIIIPE from Travis Konecny.
Another assist for the Russian Prince.
But it wasn’t just the goal and assist out of Michkov last night.
The kid was playing with some bite in his game.
But I also think that’s just Michkov’s game.
He’s so competitive, and he constantly wants to prove he’s the best player on the ice.
Always looking to create every chance he gets.
Granted, Ovi’s game is a little different now that he’s 39.
Still had plenty of gas left in the tank to get to that loose puck, though.
Great 25-30 minutes from the Flyers last night.
They had every opportunity in the world to tie that game up at 4-4.
But at the end of the day, the hole was too deep to get themselves out of.
6 straight losses, and we’re now one game closer to drafting Porter Martone or Anton Frondell.
