Given how marvelously Michkov has played this season, he is already a fan favorite among the Flyers. Signing an autograph after being ejected will only make this more of the case.
Michkov also extended his point streak to four games by recording an assist on Owen Tippett’s second-period goal. Over that span, Michkov has three goals and eight points. The now 20-year-old winger is already becoming a superstar.
