Anyways, appears he's coming for a visit...I like some of the stuff Larionov had to say, of course he is his agent!! lol

The Oilers appear to be considering Yakupov among their many options. Larionov admitted towards the end of the interview that Yakupov was headed to Edmonton on Sunday for a day and a half after this week's NHL Draft Combine is through. He will then head home to prepare for the Draft.

“Now they've got to start to make the playoffs and start to play better as a team and be more consistent,” Larionov told Hayes. “I think Nail would be the perfect candidate [for them]. He can get right in the line-up and play hockey with all those young guys.”

“It's fun to watch them and it kind of reminds me of the Edmonton Oilers of the early 80s and the Red Army team after Lake Placid,” he said. “There were so many young guys and we were very successful because [we] had hockey sense and skill and speed and desire to be successful.”

In honor of Yak's visit I will change my avatar to honor the only pick we should be considering!!

In Stu we trust!!
