This caused his draft ranking to slip, with Adam Fantilli now considered the second pick.
However, for a team that has a longer timeline and more patience, Michkov may be a steal.
Furthermore, despite earlier reports that he would not be present, he is set to attend the NHL Entry Draft in two weeks on the 28th.
With his impressive scouting reports, he is yet another generational talent available in this draft.
