Ghostsof1915 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Switch him to D and take Tram's spot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedinery33 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 $650K 2 way contract sure, better than Chaput IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adarsh Sant Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I put this in the Canucks Free Agency thread but I guess this deserves it's own thread cuz 1st overall pick and all. If he signs for under 2 mil, sure why not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie13 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 He's UFA. Maybe a fresh start on a young team might kick-start his career. It seems like a low-risk move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobi Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Sigh Yakupov. His job is to call Tryamkin every day to entice him to come back to the Canucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 That's all well and good, but why wouldn't Bergevin give him $2 million for a show me contract with galchenyuk? Drouin/Galchenyuk/Yakupov Could be a very solid line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Goose Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 would love to see this kid find his game again........IN VANCOUVER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zigmund.Palffy Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Bring him in! Boeser-horvat-yakupov would be a crazy line!0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Goose Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Maybe Travis Green is the type of coach he needs as well. Good communicator and knows what it takes- Yak could do well under him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruffy05 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Quote The line that dogs Yakupov around Edmonton is that he plays the game like he’s being chased by a swarm of bees. It has stuck, mostly because of its accuracy. “It’s so obvious now,” said a scout, who had cautioned against Yakupov’s hockey sense and foot speed. “Watch him away from the puck — he still doesn’t know where to go. His feet are moving 100 miles an hour, his stick is beating the hell out of the puck, and he doesn’t have a clue where he’s going and what he’s going to do with it.” http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/oilers-got-wrong-yakupov-start/ ... yeah, maybe as a cheap project.

Derp... Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I would take a chance. He's got to beat out a lot of guys or he goes on waivers and plays in Utica for a bit. Best of both worlds. If he scores a bunch there after learning something then bring him up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripplereh Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I just do not know, only way is a two way deal so if he brings it he stays if not AHL for life!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckylager Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Well Bure's his idol.. maybe he'll put some good 'ol fashioned "try" in his game if we were to pick him up. We need scoring Green will make him play 200ft, or ride the pine... Worth a shot. 1y $2m, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhukini Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 He did say his favourite team was Vancouver before he was drafted, thank god we werent bad enough back then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mll Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 What has he done to deserve 2M? Other proven young players don't even get that amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
