Ossi Vaananen Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I hope he stays over there. OHL made the right call. Sarnia got greedy, they still have Galchenyuk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gran Turismo Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Good to hear. He's going to develop nicely, much to our chagrin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoneypuckOverlord Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 HUGE blow for CHL hockey. But that being said, nothing Sarnia can do. CHL and Sarnia Sting of course would rather him play for them for many obvious reasons. But theres no point having him play when he wants to be in the KHL.

PlayStation Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 And that opens up the gates for other Russians to just walk out back to Russia! Horrible move imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiDeN Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I highly doubt that he is looking to stay there, and most russian players that decide to go to the KHL this year are just going to be near family and friends for the lockout. There might be a couple that stay, but who cares. If I were in their position I would be doing the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudson bay rules Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 So,he didn't have proper representation? So friggin' what. One shouldn't be able to jump leagues willy nilly without the consent of the team that holds their rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Good for Yak. Hockey Canada and OHL made the right decision. Yakupov needs to play against men to improve. He has already dominated the OHL. The Oilers, Yak and NHL are all better off with Yak playing in the KHL because he'll be a better player in the NHL when the lockout ends.

WonderTwinPowers Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 If one player is allowed to walk away on his contract without any penalty or such what message does that send to other players? That it's okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greene02 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 2 goals and 2 shootout goals(including the game winner) today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Karlsson Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 He had the 3rd highest ppg in the OHL behind only Kane and Spezza untill he got that knee injury, but still ended up doin really well after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luongo Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I love his personality, but you have to wonder whether someone someday will take his head off for his celebrations. I look forward to seeing his celebration upon his first NHL goal though. Will be CRAZY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
