NHL player agent Dan Milstein joins Sportsnet 590 The FAN to discuss why the Toronto Maple Leafs organization and their fans should be really excited for his client Ilya Mikheyev, an undrafted Russian who chose them over at least 20 other teams.

Of course his agent said this.
More excited for him then Barrie. Hahah ok
real simple.
3 players making 10+ million$$========== NO CUP
Sad But True
Leafsnet …
Of course he is going to hype up his own client.
Just because he can do it in Europe dont mean he can do it in the show
More leafs stuff! Yay
Said no one ever
It’s like the replacements of broadcasters
Such a treat that went undrafted. LOL
Mikheev is a good two way forward
Agents, go figure
If I wanted an honest opinion on a car, the salesman would be the last person I'd ask. Everything this guys agent says about him means absolutely nothing to me
????? if he is so good why was he undrafted?
This is what they say about every KHLer
Leaf Players say “Show Me The Money” , Leaf Fans say “Show Me The Cup”
46-68 points I’m calling it now
He looks like Thomas Kaberle
KHL 20 Goals = NHL 10 Goals
Nikita Gusev had 82 points in the KHL last year .Ilya Mikheyev had 45. They both played 62 games. The Leafs haven't hit on a European free agent yet. HE'S ANOTHER STIFF
Buddy sounds like the lawyer from the simpsons.
Sounds like he is promoting his client 😂
Ajuda caps itaim bibi leva Toronto entra meu time vem buscar
Leafs fans will be in for a real treat if they make another first round exit…
ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ and the highlights?
Probably this years Ozhiganov, but one can dream
Greedy agent.
"for whatever reason, he didn't get drafted" What?! Not exactly praise is it. I think the kid will be happy to get a 2way contract, so would his agent who was laying it on pretty thick. So after Mitch Marner signs, where's Mikey going to play. Not exactly a lot of spots open after Hyman gets back, after Johnsson and Moore on the Leafs Left side eat up the 2nd and 3rd line spots; kids only going to get 6-8min a game playing on 4th line with Gauthier and Spezza. [I think it's hilarious that people think Johnsson will lose out playing with Matthews on the 2nd line- Johnsson is 20goal scorer and has a 3.4M per year contract. Johnsson isn't a bottom 6 guy. LOL!!
another pathetic sportnet report. This guy is a "superstar" in the making like Alyn McCauley, Clarke Mc Arthur, Luke Schenn, Jake Gardiner, Nic antropov , Alexei Ponikarovsky,
Mikhail Grabovski, Bryan McCabe, Leo Komarov, Nikita Zaitsev and every other future hall of famer to don the Blue and White.
He's a decent power forward with good speed, balance, and edges, decent shot and average hands. He's basically a better skating Antropov. Not game changer but should fit in to the top 6 at best, bottom 6 more likely.
Dr. King Schultz from Django unchained?
I rather watch a Steve dangle w/ sportsnet rather than without more dangle the better.
A real treat is everyone reporting to camp on time
The claims would be easier to believe if A.) We could factor in larger ice B.) We could gauge the speed of the KHL game vs the NHL C.) If the guy promoting Ilya sounded a little less like the guy I buy used tires from on Kjijji. That said its a good bet, if the kid has a good head on his shoulders in addition to great wheels and good hands. Coming from there to here isn't easy for some of these young unsophisticated kids. Seems to me that NHL teams need to do more to acclimatize young Russians to all English in the dressing rooms and life in North America in general. The intense spotlight they play under in Toronto can be intimating.
That’s agent is the goat
He looks good fast and a good scorer
Well he wasn’t wrong…
This guy called it!! On route for a 50 point season !!
