Igor Larionov says he's got a trip planned to Edmonton to discuss how Nail Yakupov is being used. Pretty unhappy.

 

[Uli Hiemer]

anyone know if there will be a stream for the HHOF ceremony?

 

[Emperoreddy]

That is just beyond horrible for Stamkos. Not something anyone wants to see. Blow for the game this year. Hope he gets back on the ice soon. Guy is fun to watch.

What a ****ing joke.

 

[The Wumpus]

Gah, brutal news about Stamkos. I feel really bad for Lightning fans. Hope he picks up where he left off when he gets back.

This should be interesting. The kid has turned into quite the diva, eh?

Yep, reason one I have no interest in him

He should just come, snatch Yak, and bring him back to Russia where he can do whatever la-dee-da No-Defense/All-offense thing he wants.


The NHL has no interest in a player with his attitude.

 

[BahlDeep]

The guy is 20...lol

 

[Devils Trap]

Also The Diva otherwise known as Yakupov is open to a trade (according to mainboard report)

Lol this guy just cant stop. Now I seee why Edmonton dont play him top 6 or anything. Why would you

Craig Custance ‏@CraigCustance 3m
If EDM unhappy with him, Larionov said Yak open to trade: "We're willing to make a move. Any team. That happens and that's part of life."

I love how he says "any team" , basically pleading for a trade. He hasnt formally requested a trade, but its pretty clear when his agent says, "Any team" he wants out.

 

[Saugus]

That's not the right attitude for him to have. And then Edmonton wonders why they can't win.

 

[apice3*]

Kyle Turris had similar issues.

 

[VaxjoDevil]

Tibia would be like 6 months, he can kiss the season goodbye plus the olympics, sad.

 

[Kensu]

if Yakupov is cheap, I'd take him. This organization can set his attitude straight.

17 months ago he was a 1st overall pick. He's not going anywhere cheap.

Igor Larionov (who also trained Loktionov) flying to Edmonton to give them a nice tongue lashing.

I would totally deal one of our stud D-Men not named Larsson/Gelly for Yak. But it won't be enough.

They'd want Henrique and more.

How bad did it look? I heard about it but refuse to watch the video. Friend told me i didn't want to. Since I'm a Stamkos homer.

That sounds pretty dirty.

And yeah. The Oilers would want anything *STARTING* with Henrique and work from there....

Vax answered your question.

The video isnt tooo bad. But legs are not supposed to bend like his did

I dont think the injury part hurt me to watch. Watching him in obvious pain, basically crying on the stretcher got me

Alright definitely not watching. Thank you.

 

[Devils Trap]

Im not 100% he was crying but he had his hands over his face soo Im pretty sure he was. If your a big Stamkos fan, I wouldnt

Only non-Devils memorabilia I own. If the Devils ever traded for him I'd probably lose my religion.

I'm all sorts of bummed out.

I agree it wouldn't, but Craig MacTavish isn't the smartest GM so there's that tiny possibility
