MPS lit up the WJC's a few years back.
Yes he did. And lets not pretend that it didn't throw Oilernation into a tizzy about what a great first line player he was going to be.
He's still dining out on that tournament.

Going overboard with the expectations based off one tournament is just as bad as getting too critical.
Amusing that some of the parties most guilty of doing the former are the same ones complaining today about other posters doing the latter.

sequin? SEQUIN? that's how we're spelling it now?

I want to hear how people who spell his name with a Q pronounce his name.

Don't let the ongoing inside joke float over your heads or anything...

Hey I was a big Jani Rita fan as well before he pun on a Oiler jersey. The list of players who do very well in short international tourneys and then struggle for a bit in the NHL is very long.

The biggest difference here however is that Yak is the most recent #1 overall pick and has owned every level of hockey he has played at except this tournament.

Yakupov hasn't impressed me one little bit. Hard to stay positive right now

Wtf.. Marchand and Sequin have mirrored tattoos or something? So it collapses together when they hug?
