He's not a wild card at all.  

 

Michkov has matched Bedard every step of the way. He's done it as a 16 year old and a 17 year old. 

 

Out produced both Malkin and Ovechkin in his draft year. Here's a quote from a recent NHL.com article... 

 

Matvei Michkov, No. 2 on NHL Central Scouting's midterm ranking presented by BioSteel of International skaters, has a message for any NHL general manager hesitant to select him at the top of the 2023 NHL Draft.

 

"It is my dream to play in the NHL one day," Michkov told NHL.com through an interpreter. "But for now I will continue to work on my game and develop as a player at home."

 

Home at this moment is Russia, where the 18-year-old right wing (5-foot-10, 172 pounds) had 20 points (nine goals, 11 assists) in 30 games in the Kontinental Hockey League this season.

 

 

Michkov will go 2nd or 3rd overall. He’s literally the best Russian prospect ever.
