Most Valuable Oiler #4

[ManofSteel55]

I like Yak, Schultz and Perron more the Scrivens, but if those guys struggle it will make it hard, if Scriven struggles (as the starter) the Oilers season will likely go a similar way to the beginning of last season.

If Scrivens falters, we have Fasth, who is just as good, if not better. It's not like last year going into the season with LOLbarbera sitting on the bench.

It was just baffling how the best shot on the team (Yakupov) was not on the first PP unit. The PP should look like this:

RNH Purcell Yakupov

Hall J.Schultz

Purcell can be the big body in front of the net, Hall can use his slapshot from the point and set up the PP as he does a good job of entering the zone and has improved in playmaking. RNH can feed one timers to Yak all day. I really hate the RNH/Ebs duo on the PP. Too much pissing around for my liking and trying to set up the perfect play

 

[GMofOilers]

We get it.

You don't like Yakupov.

Not surprising, this same group of people thought Dubby was the future, and had YAK 3rd last year.

I'd rather Pouliot/Perron instead of Purcell, but I like the idea of Hall/Schultz on the point.

Nobody thought Dubnyk was a franchise goalie, most of us didn't even want him as a 1G.

Not really, that's just a statement you're creating to deflect.

You don't like Yak, for reasons that a largely based on geography.

No single poster tries to trade Yak harder or more often then you.

Really? Now your just making things up. I like Yak, I was really high on him before his draft and his first season. No doubt we made the right choice at the time. This last season has gave me more questions than answers, and Im not afraid to ask to say them? That makes me hate him now because he is Russian?

Thanks for putting words in my mouth. Appreciate it.

Hmm I will agree with the franchise goalie, but lots wanted him as the #1

And lots didn't want him or wanted to give him one more year.

Which could be added to the Yes group which would then be alot higher than the no group.

Correct? So your point?

Just showing how stupid the backup that you decided to post is.

There's a difference between questioning a player's game and bashing a player. Everybody on this board has bashed a player at one point or another. Just don't go about doing it in such a roundabout way and admit your hatred for Yakupov.

Your losing credibility

Thanks

Pretty floored Yak is leading here. 3 wingers are our top 4 MVP's? That's ridiculous.
