If we can make that Edmonton trade and trade Bourque for a winger who has center versatility I'd be pleased. Just in case of injuries, that's all.
Were Alex and Nail not line mates during there time in Sarnia?
This is though.. He and Galch would be together for 10+ years with the Habs. Outlasting Therrien by a long time.
He would be perfect on a line with Pleks and Galch and in the Future just with Galch.
You don't start grooming 21 years-old players 3 years from now.
Yakapov would be a healthy scratch every game with MT as coach
Okay, the TSN 1200 rumor isn't legit. Unless there's an actual link/soundbyte from the segment and not a random ass website using it as a source, let's put it to rest.
From an Oilers fan and agreed upon by a Habs fan LMAO !

I'd do Eller, Tokarski, Gallagher, 1st for Yakupov, Other then that I think we can find a better trade partner.
I am not so sure.
Yakupov has a terrible reputation on this forum.
He might sit out some games but I could see him growing into a complete player with MT.
as an oiler fan--about the speculation about you guys getting Yakupov--what was suggested the oilers would get--it is not enough
Its MB's job to be "checking to see what's out there" every day of the season.
It never is for the fans who always overvalue their teams players. When someone does end up getting traded for far less than what fans thought they were worth everyone is usually surprised and saying "I thought he was worth way more than that".
I doubt the Oilers would do such a trade for the players "rumored" to be going back for Yak but they also won't get someone like Galchenyuk or Pacioretty some Oiler fans would likely expect back for him either.
.........................and you guys do not overvalue your players?
Yak was a first overall pick for a reason-- using the logic that is being used Barkov in Florida should also be getting drawn adn quartered like Yak--he isn't because he aint in Edmonton.
