Alexei Mikhnov
Information about Alexei Mikhnov
Mikhnov has spent four seasons in the Russian Super League, and is considered a power forward. Despite being born in what is now Ukraine, Mikhnov (unlike his brother) plays internationally for Russia.
After being drafted in 2000, Mikhnov has been something of a mystery to Oilers fans. Even when he was drafted, he was considered an enigma[1], and when he first hit Edmonton in 2004, the Oilers front office discovered that Mikhnov had poor eyesight, leading to the team buying him a pair of glasses[2].
Mikhnov was one of the more famous players impacted by the inability of the National Hockey League and the Russian ice hockey federation to come to an agreement on a transfer arrangement, a situation which more famously affected Pittsburgh Penguins prospect Evgeny Malkin. On June 20, 2006, according to his agent, Mikhnov gave his two-weeks notice which theoretically could get him out of his contract with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, and by early September Mikhnov was skating in Edmonton, taking a spin on September 3 at the University of Alberta[3]. To date, any legal action by Lokomotiv Yaroslavl to retain Mikhnov like that being used to try and keep Malkin has not reached the press, and on September 5, Mikhnov signed a one-year deal with the Oilers.
His nickname among diehard fans is "Traktor Boy".
