Flyers GM Danny Briere gives a concerning update on Matvei Michkov
A new interview found by Philadelphia Flyers fans involving Danny Briere has fans concerned over whether or not the team will be signing top prospect Matvei Michkov.
The Philadelphia Flyers selected Matvei Michkov last June in the 2023 NHL Draft. This was a controversial selection because there is an uncertain timeline for him to come to the NHL. Matvei Michkov is under contract in the KHL with SKA St. Petersburg for several more seasons.
WELCOME TO PHILLY!
With the 7th overall pick in the 2023 #NHLDraft, we are proud to select Matvei Michkov
A new interview with Flyers GM Danny Briere revealed that the team is still unsure about the future of Matvei Michkov. Danny Briere went as far as to say he is unsure if Matvei Michkov will ever come over to the NHL.
Apparently, Philadelphia's GM, Daniel Briere said on a French podcast:
"We don't even know if we'll ever see Michknov with our team"
Say whaaaaaaaaaaaat?
This has caused major concern in the fan base over the future of one of their young star players. After trading away forward Cutter Gauthier the prospect pool for the Philadelphia Flyers has been thinned out. If they lose out on Matvei Michkov as well that could be catastrophic for the team's future. The Flyers are also reportedly on the verge of losing prospect goalie Alexei Kolosov who signed out of the KHL as well this has only furthered the paranoia.
Exclusive.
Alexei Kolosov @NHLFlyers may return to Dinamo Minsk (KHL).
The player has problems with adaptation in North America.
While the reports regarding Alexei Kolosov remain rumors the fact that these implications are even mentioned could be a problem for the Philadelphia Flyers. As the offseason continues we will likely hear more reports and rumors regarding Matvei Michkov's future. As that happens we will pass along the latest news.
