Before the start of overtime, his wife Maria and their son Prokhor went to the supermarket. A few minutes later Michkov the elder followed them. “I’ll be back soon,” he told Matthew. However, they did not meet the Michkovs on the way to the store, 20 minutes after leaving the house he received a phone call, but the subscriber was already out of reach.
“Before his disappearance, there were no scandals and quarrels. Michkov Sr. did not get sick with anything and did not abuse alcohol, ”the Mash Telegram channel reported.
The native men telephoned all their friends and acquaintances, but no one had seen him. The loss claim was forwarded to Lisa Alert, where hospitals in Sochi were checked. Now the police and searchers are busy looking for Andrey Michkov.

At the age of 16 years and 339 days, Matvey Michkov became the youngest scorer in the history of the Russian and Soviet national teams. He thus surpassed the success of Alexander Ovechkin, who scored for the first time in matches for the national team at the age of 17 years and 355 days. The captain of the Washington Capitals then congratulated the young hockey player. “Matthew, hello! Ovie in touch. I want to congratulate you on being invited to the Russian national team. Well done, I beat my record. I want to wish you success, all the best. Work, you will succeed,” Ovechkin said.
Michkov transferred to Sochi from SKA on loan during the current season. For the southern city team, he played 27 games in the KHL, in which he scored 20 points (9 goals + 11 assists). Sochi finished last in the Western Conference table after regular season results and did not qualify for the playoffs. Matvey is one of the best picks for the 2023 NHL Entry Draft.
In mid-February, Ovechkin left his wife and children in the United States to rush to Russia to visit his ailing father. Mikhail Viktorovich died after a battle with colon cancer. Anastasia Shubskaya recently went out with her mother-in-law for the first time since the death of her father Alexander Ovechkin.
