This sentiment contrasts with some earlier moments, like his celebratory reaction in his first game against Anaheim post-trade, but his latest remarks reflect appreciation for the city and fans rather than any lingering negativity.<\/p>\n<p>Check out\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nitty-gritty-3.creator-spring.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">our Flyers Nitty Gritty Store<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nitty-gritty-3.creator-spring.com\/listing\/michkov-merch?product=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Cool Matvei Michkov merchandise<\/a><\/p>\n<p>About Author<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/flyersnittygritty.com\/author\/jbaskow\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/96cadbab9f3bb794d7846eb89daa19413232c40073706d45651d91a3c99915b3.png\"  class=\"avatar avatar-150 photo\" height=\"150\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/flyersnittygritty.com\/author\/jbaskow\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jamey Baskow<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Flyers and Phantoms hockey writer.
