[Trade] Oilers trade F Nail Yakupov to the Blues


Recommended Posts

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA

 

 

Got traded for nothing in return. Didn't even get any value back.

 

Real stupid trade for Edmonton. Yakupov can easily find his game and blow back right in their faces being in the same conference and they'd have nothing to show for.

 

 

 

 

Edit: Linden Vey and Sven Baertschi fetched more than Yakupov :lol::blink::lol:

Yak has to play under Hitchcock, bet he bolts to the KHL midseason.

 

Possible.

 

Or a fresh start with a fellow Russian superstar is all he needs.

 

Either way, this is the definition of horrible asset management. The Oilers have traded half of their 1st overall players away and have Larsson and a 3rd round pick to show for it. If you told any Oiler fan that 3 years ago and they would be jumping off bridges.

who is pochiro?

 

An ECHL all-star... he and Sacha Guimond share the same company haha

 

Seriously though, WTF by the Oilers.

 

Bad teams trade from weakness, good teams trade from strength. Blues fleeced the Oilers here.

 

I wonder what Benning would have had to given up for Yakupov to outbid the Blues. I'm thinking a non conditional 3rd and Sautner would've done the trick hahaha. But again, Sautner's no POCHIRO.
