Davo Ikinzom sounds like such an awesome name
Eakins is not worthy of that title

Perhaps not but that how I'm going to refer to him from now on.

On another note: I loved the reference to Mactavish as the acting GM. I never saw his as anything more than that either.

Buddies with Tarasenko... Queue in Yak for JBo ..

Edit: Also glad that he said he is happy his club got a decent return for his KHL rights since he has no intentions of ever playing in Russia.

Nelson, the master of unscrewing twisted nuts. Gonna refer to Eakins as Davo Ikinzom from now on on this forum.

Spending time in the gym doesn't magically grant you new types of hockey ability.

Yak is a good player, but thus far in his career has not shown much of the same raw ability Hall, RNH, and Eberle have.

Seguin parties hard, but he also produces at a level that Nail could not dream of right now.

Yak better hope he develops chemistry with McDavid and can be the beneficiary of a lot of easy tap ins and set ups. Otherwise he'll likely be traded fairly quick from here IMO.

Yak will be the trade bait for a defenceman.

What is your favorite band?

- Nickelback, the Canadian group. Pleasant, slow songs.

"No, Nelson relaxed team unscrewed nuts, twisted to the end."

Beware of Davo Ikinzom, he will twist your nuts.
