This Flyers rookie dominated in his return to the lineup.
As Denver Barkey heads back to the London Knights after spending the last couple of months watching the Philadelphia Flyers' training camp from the sidelines, he reflects on his recovery from illness and coming back a stronger player than before.
After being scratched for two straight games, Philadelphia Flyers rookie Matvei Michkov returned to the lineup for the club's matchup against the San Jose Sharks.
Matvei MichkovMichkov made a significant in his first game back, as he had a goal and an assist during regulation. Michkov's goal was particularly impressive, as he scored a beauty on the breakaway.
Michkov's dominance did not stop there, though, as he also scored during the shootout with a nifty move.
This was undoubtedly an excellent way for Michkov to respond to being healthy scratched twice. The 19-year-old winger now has five goals and 12 points in 14 games this season.
