I’d say your odds for that are worse than your odds of being struck by six bolts of lightning at once.

It could happen! Not saying it couldn’t. But I wouldn’t bet on it.

Right now it's 0%.

A pick can only move up 10 spots, so Florida would have to finish in the bottom 12 for it to even be a remote possibility.

First of all, Michkov > Fantilli...

Second of all, a pick can only move up 10 spots so mathematically, there's a 0% chance of getting 1 and 2. Heck, even the chances of getting 1 aren't exactly in your favor

Fantilli > Michkov.
Fantilli is bigger, faster, better D Stronger passer and better attitude. Michkov has more sniper skill but not a better player.

Michkov is better defensively, has better hands, and is a stronger player. Fantili has the size and speed, but his raw talent isn't as good as Michkov. Michkov >

LOL Michkov’s biggest weaknesses are attitude and Defensive play, him being 5’8” 160 pounds and not that fast.
he does have an Elite shot but the rest of his game needs work.
Fantilli is 6” 30lbs bigger, better defensively, faster, a full 200’ player. he may never hit Bedard level offensively but the rest of his game makes him the clear #2 OA. if you disagree i would just assume you haven’t watched them play enough.

Fantili's defensive game is weaker. Considering Fantili's playing against his age group and Michkov is playing against fully grown men, I don't think that's arguable. He's a as strong a passer, if not better than Fantili. His only major knock is his size.

If you disagree, I just assume you are completely out of touch with prospects.

Michkov scouting report:

Strengths:

Probably the most creative player in the 2023 draft
Shot/scoring ability
Ability to create his own opportunities
Elusive skating stride
Stickhandling
IT factor

Weaknesses:

Utilization of teammates
Defensive play
Backchecking
Strength

Direct quote from THW. funny how it lines up exactly which what i’m Saying. Hmmmm maybe you need to check yourself a little before you give so much attitude.

Let’s look at where every major Hockey scouting report has Fantilli….

NHL Central Scouting: 2nd (amongst NA skaters)
The Hockey Writers (Horn): 2nd
The Hockey Writers (Baracchini): 2nd
FC Hockey: 2nd
TSN/McKenzie: 2nd
Elite Prospects: 2nd
McKeen’s Hockey: 2nd
Smaht Scouting: 2nd
Dobber Prospects: 2nd
Sportsnet: 2nd

And Michkov:

THW – Horn: 4th
THW – Baracchini: 4th
DailyFaceoff – Ellis: 3rd
Draft Prospects Hockey: 2nd
Bob McKenzie: 4th
Craig Button: 5th

yes both are very good but almost everyone in hockey agrees Fantilli over Michkov. the size speed and russia factor keep him out of the top 3 IMO.
could he wind up being the best offensive wing in this draft? yes! but C are more sought after and so is a 6’+ C with speed and skill. It’s not rocket science and looks like i’m more in touch with prospects.
