Philadelphia Flyers forward Matvei Michkov has requested a trade away from the organization, according to a report published on November 11, 2026. The 20-year-old Russian prospect, selected seventh overall in the 2023 NHL Draft, is seeking a move after limited playing time and reported disagreements with the coaching staff.
The Flyers have not publicly commented on the trade request. Michkov, who signed a three-year entry-level contract with Philadelphia in 2024, recorded 12 points in 35 games during his rookie season. His agent is expected to meet with team management to discuss potential destinations.
