Not pretty... But Yak will take it!

 

[Critically Acclaimed]

Good to see Shultz and Yak pot some tonight.

 

[PBandJ]

YAKS!!!

 

[Ninety7]

yak <33333

 

[The Nuge]

Yak!!!!

 

[ohheyhemsky]

The only way Yak scores anything close to 30 goals in his career, is if th DJ plays "Yakety Axe" after every time he scores.

 

[dem]

Dubnyk is in the zone

 

[awesomo]

best this team has played in a LONG time this little streak. The oilers are playing with confidence

 

[Ol' Jase]

I would like to see Yakupov and J Shultz get some goals tonight. Both players have had a bit of a struggle finding the back of the net lately..

 

[McOilbleeder]

Look at that celebration. Wow what a jerk Yak. God.

 

[Supermassive]

Hey, Bagg Sweatt is in the lineup for the Canucks.

Somewhere out there, DashingSilverFox is giddy with delight.

That's beautiful. Another can't miss Nuck prospect. Aaaand he's a minus-1.

 

[The Nuge]

Look at that celebration. Wow what a jerk Yak. God.

It's sad, but the first thought I had there was "I wonder if a Calgary fan will start a thread about that"

 

[Faelko]

Flames may as well dump Tanguay too...dude's mailing it in.

 

[Del Preston]

Sharks take 1-0 lead over Canucks.

edit: nope 2-0

3-0.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

So I wonder two things?

1. Can Dennis Wideman sue the Flames for fraud?

2. Can the Oilers get Curtis Glencross for the "most skilled player outside the NHL" in Linus Omark?

I think it might be yes to both.

 

[Sloth Slothersons*]

**** you vancouver! The one night I'm rooting for you...

 

[Gamefreak]

**** you vancouver!

Maybe the Oilers are chasing the Nucks in the standings now?

 

[ohheyhemsky]

I LOVE how Yak acknowledges the crowd.

When I was a kid, I would have killed for Dougy Weight to give me a wink after he scored, or something along the lines of that.

The closest I got was Ed Belfour staring my brother and I down as he skated by the boards during a break. We were chanting "Belllllfouuurrrr". The immediate crowd around us lost their **** and high-fived us. That was rad.

 

[Crobby]

I like Yaks goal more for the fact that he made the right plays breaking out of the zone...where he's had some issues imo

He passed it back to the D when he had pressure on him, curled and got the puck back...got the red line and made a nice pass to Jones instead of trying to deke the forechecker. Then he gets to the space and gets the puck back and fires it

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Flames may as well dump Tanguay too...dude's mailing it in.

He's got 3 years left at $3.5M per with a Modified NTC, he's not going anywhere unless he's bought out.

 

[CupofOil]

I like Brown but Krueger plays him waaay too much.

 

[Asher]

3-0.

Canucks are just coasting until they get eliminated in the playoffs.

 

[oilers_guy_eddie]

3-0.

Great. One time when a Canucks win would help us out, and they load their pants. Nice going, Canucks.

 

[awesomo]

I like Brown but Krueger plays him waaay too much.

its been like 3-0 all game. why stick to overplaying 2-3 lines??

especially in a 4-0 game let roll it up

 

[Brokenhead]

2. Can the Oilers get Curtis Glencross for the "most skilled player outside the NHL" in Linus Omark?

I actually think the Flames should get Omark. He is the kind of guy you want in a rebuild because he is at least entertaining to watch. You need those guys when you are losing all the time.
