Be realistic Yak has no value, I have been a Yak supporter but he just has no value

Yeah. I am a huge Yak fan. It's an asset we either need to build some value on, or just let him go after next season.

But from what I had read Yesterday, he'll be playing with Drai and Pakarinen tonight...So he might have some jam. He played well with Drai in preseason.

He was doing line rushes with Hendricks and Korpse yesterday... Though I can't see that lasting. He usually plays well against the Jets.

Winnipeg's not good. Only two points clear of us, 4-6 their last 10, 11-14 on the road, and games between us are usually solid.

Oilers win again, 5-2. McDavid with another two points.

McD, Eberle, Yakupov, Pakarinen, and Nurse with the goals. Byfuglien trainwrecks someone, Nurse fights him to a draw, standing O.

Why is Schultz playing? Can we please start an anti-Schultz campaign?

If any of you guys are wearing paper bags could you please write "Schultz sucks" on them?

 

[DavidOilTroops]

Im at the point i dont even care about the outcome anymore so long as McDavid keeps racking up the points.

Apathy is in full effect.

Oilersnation had a good article about how terrible Korpi is. It's embarrassing that we are putting Yakupov with him. He'd develop better in the AHL if that were possible.

I really hope you're right and he's with Draisaitl today.

 

[DerpMorg]

Yessssss.

Doesn't Korpikoski have the same amount of points, and more goals than Yakupov?

 

[Johnny McBravo]

Broissoit playing tonight

edit: If talbot isn't feeling better

One for one? Yak gets you maybe a 5th right now

 

[duul]

Was it a dream or did I hear correctly somewhere the lines are:

Yakupov-Draisaitl-Pakarinen
Pouliot-McDavid-Eberle
Hall-Letestu-Kassian
Korpikoski-Hendricks-Purcell

edit: switch Yak and Purcell.

 

[nabob]

Shhhh. He also is an effective forechecker and PKer.

 

[McDNicks17]

Korpi is basically dead last in every advanced stat now that Klink is gone.

 

[oXo Cube]

Yakupov - Draisaitl - Pakarinen is going to get slaughtered at evens if they aren't given butter soft minutes.

Drai has been really struggling,and hasn't looked good for a while.

Let;s hope it works for him and Yak together.
2 negatives = a positive. (at least in math anyway)

 

[The Nuge]

Korpi is basically dead last in every advanced stat now that Klink is gone.

Ya, he's been a disappointment. He's a guy I've wanted for years, and thought would rebound with a fresh start, but it just hasn't happened. The upside is he's not completely useless

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Talbot not at morning skate at all - sick. Strongly looking like LB will get his second career start.

And, there we go. Oiler Twitter official. Brossoit gets the nod.
