Ilya Mikheyev Notches A Pair Of Goals Thursday
1 year agoVancouver Canucks forward Ilya Mikheyev tallied a pair of goals on Thursday as the Canucks knocked off the hosting Ottawa Senators by a 5-2 count. The speedy winger added to the club's hot start by making it a 2-0 game just three minutes into the contest before notching his second of the game 9:23 into the third period. It's been a hot start for Mikheyev who has notched five goals and eight points on 24 shots in nine contests in his return from an ACL injury suffered last season. Even with the hot start, Mikheyev is a middling fantasy asset. He doesn't shoot the puck a ton and he also doesn't skate on the Canucks' top power-play unit. However, he is certainly worth keeping an eye on as long he is skating to the left of superstar Elias Pettersson at even strength.
