Captain “Philadelphia” Sean Couturier defended the Russian Flyers forward Matveya Mishkova during an NHL preseason game against Boston.
Philadelphia beat Boston in overtime with a score of 3:2. Michkov scored twice, scoring the game-winner in overtime.
In the first period, Bruins defenseman Billy Sweezy tried to provoke Michkov into a fight, but the 19-year-old Russian moved away from his opponent, after which Couturier fought with Sweezy.
“I think it was very important for Mich (Michkov) to see what the Flyers are like as early as possible.” We will protect each other,” said Philadelphia forward Travis Konecny .
The new NHL season begins on October 4.
