Tonight at 8 o’clock, we get the battle between rookie of the year favorites:
Matei Michkov vs. Macklin Cellebrini….

We all know about young Michkov and are so fortunate to be able to watch him develop into what seems to be a stone-cold lock superstar….And Cellebrini has a huge “it” factor as well…. He often reminds me of a mix of Sidney Crosby and Nathan McKinnon…The main thing he shares with Crosby is his willingness and ability to go to the dirty spots and score. He’s not afraid at all…. He also can play the game at a very fast pace. Like the Flyers with Michkov, the Sharks haven’t quite gotten all all the pieces that they need around this kid.

But tonight will be fun to see them in their early stages … I will be commenting throughout the game along with you in the game thread below…
