@ryanwhitney6 it's 12 for 12. Not 17. And that graphic was mine 👇
I posted it Nov 10. 64.8K views later it made Chiclets. Same post said you don't trade the golden goose.
Speaking up for Flyers fans here. We aren't all crazy. I believe in Briere, Jones and Tocchet to figure this out the right way. But we need to see if Michkov can be that elite level talent. If you don't have elite talent, you can't win in the NHL today.

Three Flyers defensemen pinch on the same shift. Risto, Seeler and Sanheim all keep the puck alive and Sanheim ties it 2-2.
That goal and five more breakdowns from last night's OT loss in Edmonton:

My three keys for the Flyers in Edmonton last night, and how they did:
1. Win the other 40 minutes ✅
McDavid's line didn't score at 5 on 5. The Flyers out-attempted Murphy and Shea 12 to 8 and the Formenton line 11 to 1.
2. Stay out of the box ✅
One penalty all night. Edmonton still scored on it in 20 seconds.
3. Turn rushes into shots
Grade coming once InStat's rush data loads.

The Flyers lost 3-2 in OT in Edmonton last night and played their best game of the season.
Six film breakdowns I posted live during the game, all in one video. The D holding the line, the Foerster power play goal, the Sanheim goal and the Bouchard winner.

Breaking down this OT goal as it happened. We are inches away from Drysdale sending Michkov the other way on a breakaway. Great overall effort from the Flyers and I loved the way they bounced back today given the adversity they were facing from the Media and Fans.
Flyers fall 3-2 in OT on the Bouchard winner. Honestly their most complete effort of the year, and beating 29 and 97 in OT is never easy.
One bright spot: Michkov played 20:44 and got an assist and should have had a few more.
That's just his 2nd game of 20+ minutes under Tocchet.
Michkov's 20+ minute games:
Torts: 6 in 71 games
Shaw: 5 in 9 games
Year 2: 0 in 89 games (Honestly deserved it)
Year 3: 2 in 21 games

Called it out earlier that the D had to keep pinching on 50/50 or wrapped pucks in the O-Zone. You’ll see three defensemen (Risto, Seeler, and Sanheim) do exactly that as they keep the pressure on and it leads to the Sanheim goal. 2-2 with 6 minutes left in the third. #LetsGoFlyers
You can’t win the game in the first period. But you certainly can lose the game in the 1st. Flyers did their job now they just need to keep up what’s working so well.
1. Keep playing tight defensively
2. Continue to be relentless on the forecheck.
3. The D have to keep holding the line keeping pucks in the offensive zone.
Ryan Thompson retweeted
Thought this was a great shift and battle by Bunting to win this puck down low 1 on 2. And then as @PHLY_Flyers said earlier tonight if someone tracked potential assists you’d have to imagine Michkov would be at the top of the list.
Ryan Thompson retweeted
As I said this was a massive Power Play for the Flyers to now only be down by 1 heading into the 3rd Period. Watch this breakdown of first PP unit before 71 FINALLY gets on the board for the flyers. #LetsGoFlyers
Ryan Thompson retweeted
First goal against and you can pretty much blame three guys for this.
Tippet had a chance to break the puck out or just stop behind the net and slowly regroup.
Sanhiem had a chance to get/win the puck back and instead just let Nug have it.
Bonk lost Hyman and let him get open in front for the rebound

This is a little bit of a longer breakdown but I thought the flyers Defensemen did a GREAT job at jumping on loose pucks / wrapped pucks to keep it in. You know it’s a great shift when you’re able to get a line change while never leaving the offensive zone. #LetsGoFlyers

In case you missed my three keys to tonight’s game here they are ! In the video I breakdown which forward line and D combo are must susceptible to being beat. Why McDavid and Leon finally have the perfect line mate. And lastly what the flyers need to improve on.

Edmonton is 26-7 in goals with McDavid, Draisaitl and Podkolzin on the ice. That is not where tonight gets won.
The pair to attack, the line to attack, the Oiler nobody talks about, and 3 keys for the Flyers.

Michkov had his hands in 4 of my 5 live breakdowns from the Flyers win in Vancouver.
All five clips, recorded minutes after each play, are now in one recap with the full video and click-to-play chapters.

I went back through every Breaking News video Kevin Weekes posted in the last year just to confirm. He's 12 for 12.
"The Flyers didn't know" doesn't mean he's wrong. This was worthy of him posting.
You don't trade the golden goose. Full take: broadstbreakout.com/you-dont…
**Breaking News** 🚨 📰
From multiple league sources, with the Flyers unimpressive start and internal turmoil, Michkov would likely want a new start elsewhere. He's in the last year of his contract & is a prime trade candidate moving forward. #HockeyX

Okay…. Now we’ve got a problem

As the Flyers are going to the Box again and now only up 2-1. I point you to plays like this that drive me absolutely crazy. If they are being coached to dump this in that absolutely has to change.
You already have possession do not give it away in hopes of winning a 1 on 2.
Ryan Thompson retweeted
This is probably just one of those in the moment there’s some heated interactions.
But it does remind me the rumor of how a young Patty Kane would get off the ice when Hjalmarsson was out there since he’d just dump the puck in or shoot it off the glass instead of making the elite play Kaner would see.
Ryan Thompson retweeted
I think you all saw this next clip coming. Martone - Zegras - Michkov got another shift. This one much more obvious. But again Michkov’s back checking effort and ability to find the soft ice on the rush is what leads to this scoring chance.
Ryan Thompson retweeted
I really don’t want to come off as a Michkov fan boy tonight (now my third breakdown that he’s been a part of). But I think this second goal of the game he deserves a ton of credit.
It’s the little details at how elite he is at maintaining possession. This goal happens …. Because Zegras and Michkov take an extended shift on the Powerplay. #LetsGoFlyers
