The Philadelphia Flyers made a surprising move during the NHL Draft by selecting Russian prospect Matvei Michkov with the 7th overall pick.

However, there have been reports suggesting attitude problems surrounding Michkov. Likely, teams are just mad at how loyal Michkov is to Philly, and are trying to get in the way of it due to jealousy.
It is said that he refused to meet with several teams and made it clear he would not leave the KHL to sign with them. Further reports indicate clashes with teammates and a disrespectful attitude towards coaches and veterans. Former NHL player Ryan Whitney shared an anecdote from one of Michkov's teammates, painting a negative picture of the young prospect's character.
"I heard that. He listens to nothing... coaches, veterans trying to talk to him, just tells them, 'f*ck off'. A guy he played with this year just said, 'this kid, as much as I'm trying to give him a shot is just a piece of s*it.

- Ryan Whitney

Haters gonna hate, the Flyers got the biggest steal of the 2023 NHL draft hands down.
